seeking, it might be a good time to put into place some other type of Christmas giving. Consider gifts of special activities together or certificates for something that will be coming up that you can get later when the event arrives. Sorta like layaway but something to look forward to?
When I was a kid money was really tight, one of my best ever Christmas memories was when all of us kids took some of our own things and regifted it to our siblings. It was really cool as a kid to give something of my own and decide who would like to have it.
Live your life while you are still living. Riding the trail less traveled.
