Dear Lilac Tree,
Note to self: Collect money from E to pay Q for E's gift to C.
" ... my daughter with whom I live (E) asked me to order it for her to give to C as she doesn't have an account with the Q."

What a coincidence! 15 minutes ago I sent her a text reminding her to put some money in my account. As we all know, Ms. Maran's items are not cheap!!
(Yes, even though we live together, we communicate via text, since she sleeps most of the day.)

Ford, I got your humor first read through. Probably because I have moments like that frequently haha.
You have the patience of a saint, reading each response and replying with a nice upbeat answer.
I honestly believe you are the only poster who can write a "humorous" story, just to share, and end up having 4 or 5 pages of people dissecting your post.
It used to hurt you, and really bum you out. I enjoy your posts, and I am happy to see that you can now just let things roll off your shoulders. After all these years, you can see it will never stop. You learned to roll with the flow.
You are very lucky your girls are close to you (emotionally) and they care for you (physically). You have a good family
I don't get the "Home for Mom" solicitors. I am now getting "Do you wish to be cremated when you die?" letters in my mail, lol. Well, actually I do, but the ones that solicit me to have the pleasure is not getting my business haha.
Holidays are almost over. This is the time of year I eagerly await for the month of January to arrive!

The "Who's on first" routine was from Abbott and Costello. (Can't ID the poster b/c "reply" only links to the first post. I wish QVC would fix that!)

The original post is like the Three Stooges "Who's On First, What's on Second". Between all the initials I could not begin to decipher it.
@You have to hit reply on the particular post you're responding to, then you can just use the @ symbol and choose that poster's nic from the list that comes up, @RainyDayGal
and type your response OR you can hit reply on her post, then hit quote and her post will appear and you type in your response. HTH!

I only read half of the posts and I think by the other responses I got the gist of it as we say..
That said..what does make the most sense in all of the posts that I read..the Adult Daughter asked you to order something as she doesn't have an account...that is a simple fix...and easy to boot...and the answer that is the best when asked!
Seriously without snark..as I know you cannot tell tone on these boards. Let her get her own account - and everybody can keep track of their own gifts lol..If you text you have a phone and in that phone is all kinds of nifty things...and you can keep track of who and what you buy on any of the apps...or even the Calendar.
What I do with important info I want to remember and have with me..like a password that nobody will know to what..I will write a slang/hint that only I would know...and then the info I want...and text it to myself...it automatically comes up ME in message section and I have all type of info! For instance I have a off shoot account that I have small amount Direct Deposited in...I never remember the pin..so I slanged the place convenience store that has free ATM ...and the four digit pin..nobody would ever guess what I meant!
