From the fiery ashes of the blue pick-up emerges....my new gas-efficient ride. Today I purchased a 2005 Toyota Corolla. It's a bittersweet situation. I'll have a ride in place when my bro comes back to claim Green Lion next week, but the acquistion was literally a costly one. I'm practically broke until the end of January so going out, let alone buying x-mas gifts, will have to wait while I get this down payment out of the way. It's nice to have a reliable car with an extensive warranty, but I'm already counting the days until I can go out & have fun again. Like The Ataris said, "Being grown-up isn't as fun as growing up."

so true.
I feel your pain. I remember some years when I felt like giving everyone sugar cube castles and paper airplanes for Christmas.
I'll make an exception this year and take another one of your "snowglobes" made out of a baby food jar.
If you have any drawing talent, you can always make someone a Christmas card. You don't spend any money, and the recipient(s) will think that you put a ton of thought and effort into it...when you actually didn't.
