Groundhog Day Christmas

I am going crazy. SS just told us for the w 11 th year in a row to get his kids legos for Christmas. They are girl almost 14, girl 12 and boy 8. We have bought thousands of legos! I told DH I am not buying anymore f- ing Legos. And I never curse out loud! Plus he said he will send their list of Legos  tonight. After Black Friday, cyber Monday and all the rest. DH only comment was "now that we missed the sales" to which SS said well nothing they want is on sale. This is why I have come to dread Christmas. Does a 14 year old girl really want Legos? He said she did and their boy, the middle girl wants "a gift card from somewhere" he said. I would be such a good stepmom if I had ever been given the chance. I'd love to take them shopping but we did one year and after that the other grandma hijacked the idea and ruined the special trip for me and DH. This drove me to a Khalua and coffee, hopefully I can move on from them.

No 12 or 14 Year-old wants legos. Send them gift cards or cash and be done with it. Although I wonder what he does with all the legos - tourture devices that they are?  :-)
