My husband truly listened to me this year and got me a brand new computer! He's actually pretty good with gifts but never pays attention to the hints I drop all year!

Mr. Blackerican listened as well and got me a new set of pots and pans (Red of course)!! He laso got me a George Foreman Grill. I've always wanted one of those. My son gave me the cutest black leather wristlet with a red heart on it. He also gave me some Bath and Body stuff!!! My parents gave me money. I had a great Christmas.

Good Christmas
Christmas worked out well, even though I'm recovering from a sore throat.
I got a Tower Records gift card from my nephew, jazz books and cat calendars along with cash from my sister, cash from my mother and the big cash as my bonus. I used a mix of the bonus and a bit of my sister's cash to purchase a Hermes scarf that is primarily green. Got tired of waiting for an acceptable pink and green pattern. I don't care if it's some rich Rancho Santa Fe chick's castoff -- it's still a classic wardrobe item.:p I'm glad that resale exists. Also, I picked up a pink cashmere sweater from Off Fifth (Saks' outlet) and a wisteria tweed suit from Nordstrom Rack that was 40% off the marked price. I always need a ladies who lunch suit for events. |
This Christmas we were definitely blessed...It's my daughter's first Christmas as well as my first Christmas as someone's mom and wife :D
My daughter is 7months old...and we said that we weren't going to purchase her anything because all she does is eat things...but being as though her Village is the size of Atlanta, we didn't have to buy anything for her because everyone else gave here toys and gifts...she has enough new clothes to last until spring:eek: My Hubby listened as well, and blessed me with a digital camera, The Sims Game, and a Velour Track Suit:D |
This christmas was truly special, just for the simple fact that I was blessed to be with my family. So the gifts were an added bonus.
My parents gave me a day spa certificate, and a sony vaio laptop. My man gave me a beautiful tennis bracelet, a red cashmere sweater, and a mobile printer and carrying case. My sister gave me a gift card for Barnes and Nobles and one for Best Buy. |
EVERYTHING!!!!!! Lol, I'm serious, I got absolutely everything I asked for and so much more.....I love being the youngest:D
The highlights include a printer (for when that paper's due and the library's closed), and digital camera and printing dock, chocolate brown pumps, a back massager, and an mp3 player, and a ton of clothes (doesn't matter how old you get, you still get a ton of clothes....but they get cuter over time :) ). I loved being with my family, we had so much fun....that was my best present of them all! |
Well, I don't technically celebrate, but I got stuff anyway. :)
I got a pretty breast cancer pin from my aunt, who suffers from breast cancer (my sister does too :( ). I also got an Oscar the Grouch doll (one of my favorite characters). I brought myself a couple of CD's, a CD case, some crochet stuff, and a fleece blanket. There were sales so I had to take advantage.;) |
Sirius Satellite Radio
$300 cash bath & body stuff from Lush Gift certificate to a spa A toy scooter for my desk at work. :) |

Hope you all have a safe holiday season :D |
Coat
Digital Camera A few gift certificates A poker game set My mother downloaded several versions of "Laffy Taffy" for me. She popped it in the stereo at the Christmas dinner, after we played all of the Christmas music. I told her not to play it, but she did anyway. The look on my 80-something grandmother's face was priceless. My dad ran and yanked the CD out. :D |

Reading the thread, I'm glad the GC peeps got what they wanted.
I, also, received money, clothes, etc...but the best was seeing that my family (self included) is blessed and healthy. And I have, overall, peace of mind. |
Re: What Did You Get 2005?
My boyfriend got me:
he sneaked my bike right out of my house (right under my nose - and we don't live together :eek: ) and got it fixed (there were a ton of things wrong with it) a christmas riddle :) a calendar of works by one of my favorite painters a beautiful pink and green journal with embroidered butterflies on front a bed desk for bar exam study My boyfriend's mom/dad and sister got me pajamas.

What I got......
A friend I babysit for sometimes made a gift bag for me of stuff from Bath and Body Works, which included 4 assorted shower gels (3 from Tutti Dolci- Amaretti, Apple Torta and Creme Brulee- and Warm Vanilla Sugar), a bottle of lotion and body splash (Warm Vanilla Sugar), and a candle from Kohl's. On my way home, though, the gift bag ripped apart and I had to put all of the stuff in a plastic bag. Being that B&BW is having a 75% off sale, I'll check them out in the next few days to get more stuff. :D :cool:

Since Monday, I've had a good shopping period.
I did go into the big "H" at South Coast Plaza, and got excellent service. One suspects that since Lady O.'s incident, the SAs were drilled into being, err, more sensitive. The upshot: I have a Bolduc pink/green ribbon pattern scarf. :D Also am going to get Fresh Pink Jasmine EDP. |
