Holidays are looming

I'm TRYING to get organized for the holidays. Every year I pick up gifts for the family and throw them in my gift cupboard and now I need to pull everything out and figure out where I'm at and where the gaps are. I know got my brother's kids covered, and I just send my sister's kids money, since they're in their 20s. I've gotten a couple things for Burt and Bobbie, and a couple things for Jeannie and Jerry, and a couple things for Matt and Larry, and a bunch of little stuff for my kids, so I'm doing pretty well. I went to B&N one night a couple weeks ago and got some great things off the bargain shelf for various people. I almost never get a chance to do that, so that was fun and a relief. I just got the kids' school photos, which aren't very good, but the grandparents don't care. I need to go to Kohl's or Marshall's and get some frames and that's another gift. I just ordered an Obama tshirt online for Matt (yea for Cyber Monday - I checked the mall 2 weeks ago and they had almost nothing - one shirt in the skateboard shop, but the design was boring). So I think he'll get a kick out of that, and, full disclosure, I got one for myself too!!
