your gifts sound lovely! Snob? no, I think sometimes we sabotage ourselves so much and deprive ourselves and our loved ones that when we get it right and can spend hard earned money on thoughtful things, well, that brings pleasure. I don’t want just a materialistic life. But having choices and make meaningful purchases is something we get from recovery. Valuing life is part of recovery. Hope you have a very merry Christmas! Sorry I missed you. Laura
