Our Family Secret Santa

Okay, FIRST .. I am not cheap or a bah humbug kind of guy. I love Christmas for religious and secular reasons, if that's possible. I mean I like to give my daughter and granddaughters ANYTHING. I'm usually in trouble for too many gifts for the grand kids, but that's for another time.

Now to the subject. We have a few nieces/nephews who are all 25/30 year old range. We still by gifts for them, which has been going on since birth. Also the parents of these "children". They also buy for us. It is ridiculous that this has been going on for all this time. What would you like, oh, a blue sweater, okay send me a link and I'll get it. I'm buying 15+ gifts and getting as many that I reallllly don't need or want. At my age, if I want something, I buy it. ( within reason..... usually )

This year my daughter, who has felt like I have for some time, said this is the year we need to do this secret Santa thing, it's long over due (Still my girl :)) My son in law did a algorithm, whatever the hell that is, and I got my brother in law, who I'll buy a bottle of Jack and piss off my sister in law.
NOW everybody, except her and I, are :mob::mad: grumbling. When does this gift giving stop for the 2nd tier family. I love them, but come on.
