Husband didn't get me anything this year -- not even the Hello Kitty necklace he said he was getting me. I bought my own gifts and wrapped them, too. I also wrapped all the gifts for him, and the gifts for our two sons. :(
So I gave myself a new crock-pot and an ipod dock station. Yea me. We are going up to Maine for a couple of days, so I expect to be able to do some serious shopping while there to make up for his massive gaffe. |

clothes
a very nice jewlery box a heavy winter coat some holiday jewelry a bookcase I was practical this year. I got the kid two books, parents got her a Wii over the summer, an iPod nano (pink), and a TracFone :rolleyes: . I'm taking her to see her other Grandmother for about a week, that's her other present from me. |
We had talked about and got a Wii a few days ago. I didn't give hubby much to go on but he did get me the Brighton badge holder :cool: cause i keep forgetting mine and I'm not supposed to be in the building without it.:o Also a book on the comic strip "Mutts". B&N gift certificate
Last week I did my own "Christmas" shopping since things were on sale. Got me a Brighton bracelet to go with some earrings I already had (didn't know there was one until I got a mailer), plus a VERY COMFY comforter set cause Linens & Things is going out of business plus some small stuff for decorating the new house. ;) I'm sweet, I got my hubby an unexpected 16gig ipod, a Backyard Astromer book, http://www.fuzziwigscandyfactory.com/tour.php# candy from when we were little (like Teaberry gum and bubble gum cigs and Necco wafers) and a wall clock made like a violin |
- Grand Marnier chocolates and $50 Starbucks card from my girls
- Hand and footprint picture from my kindergärtner That's it - when you are unemployed, it's easier to keep to the "no gifts except for the kids" rule. eta - but thanks to some generous friends, my boys had bikes under the tree from Santa, and all my children seemed quite happy with the few, but choice, gifts they received. So I'm happy. |
Rock Band for my Wii
cash (yes, i have money finally!! lol) hat/scarf/gloves combo |
Co-Workers: books, Dooney and Bourke Signature Zip Around
From mom: Oneida silverware set for 8, "Family of 3" good luck cat figurines, Silver Dollars from the year I was born, and a MacBook (I got that on Cyber Monday). From the boy's 3 year old: Vera Bradley Katie in Yellowbird! From the boy's parents: CASH. It's always appreciated. From the boy: sweets in my stocking, Mamma Mia! on DVD, Jon & Kate Plus 8 Seasons 1-3 on DVD, a neck massager that doubles as a travel pillow, Across the Universe on DVD (it was our first movie), and a Gift Certificate for a Wii Fit (for his Wii that has still not arrived from the store) or tickets to see Mamma Mia next May. He was very creative this year. He created an interactive game show on DVD, complete with voices (think MXE) and music. If I answered the Multiple Choice Questions correctly, I got a present! The best present was his 3 year old spending the night last night. I forgot just how exciting Christmas can be! Mele Kalikimaka, everyone! |
