Birthday too close to holidays

oregonzoo

My b-day is this month as well. Thinking about asking him to get me some pretty underthings to wear. lol

Which will mean a gift card and me going by myself.

Mine is Dec 26th and though I've never really gotten excited about it my family actually managed to make me cry this year... everyone was partied out and putting a cake on the table with candles and singing to me was too much for them. We even had the cake, and the candles but nobody cared enough to do anything with them.

I would get you a new birthday!!!

i know exactly how you feel.. my birthday is on jan 1, and my dad's birthday is christmas. my mom asks us to make christmas lists. she uses that to get christmas and birthday gifts for both of us.

my husband gets me slippers every birthday, and socks for christmas. we dont spend that much on each other for gifts. my husbands birthday is a week after mine, so the family gets together the weekend in between our birthdays for a nice dinner out. we keep it pretty simple.

we do all make sure to get my dad something jsut as a birthday present. it sucks having your birthday on a holiday. especially christmas.

Just had to reply to this one. My birthday is December 30th, so as with anyone having a birthday close to Christmas, I've put up all my life with "This is for Christmas AND your birthday"! This year was my 60th, so my husband wanted to make it special. He bought gifts and cards for three days in advance with a countdown....3...2...1. That was great, but he didn't get me anything for Christmas because he wanted to make my birthday "special". I asked him "If my birthday was in June, would you say I got you something special, so I'm not getting you anything for Christmas"? Just an FYI.....BIRTHDAYS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH CHRISTMAS!!!
Different occasions require different gifts. And they don't have to be big or cost a lot, but you DO have to spend time and THINK about the person you care about when getting them something. It IS the thought that counts! I also always buy myself clothes and he wraps them so I have things to open, but usually, I get one or two surprises. This year, the surprise was on me!!! I would have appreciated it more if he took one of my "birthday gifts" and gave it to me for Christmas!

Mine is on Friday...

I never know for sure what to ask for, so I usually just ask for something that I did not get for Christmas.

If I thought we could afford it, I would ask for $180 to get 6 sessions with a trainer.

reality, I might get a card...

Jan 10 bday here. I usually just get gift cards or cash and then when I figure it out, I got get it. This year I got sports authority and victoria's secret gift cards, i'll prob ask for the same for my bday, and also to Tiffany's since there's a necklace there i'm saving up for. giftcards can seem rather impersonal, but, like you, i have no idea what i want and just finished the dang holidays......
