kansasskydiver 0 #76 December 26, 2003 I was spending Christmas eve alone, not in a good mood. I spoke with superwoman around midnight, went to bed at 1or2am. At 7am my phone rang and it's superwoman on the phone asking if i'll open my door to let her in. She drove all night to be here and spend Christmas morning with me. Nicest Christmas present I've ever gotten<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty good year. Rhonda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McDuck 0 #81 December 26, 2003 I could blather on and on about my gifts, but I'll just say that I realised I had been given the best gift I've ever received: a wonderful holiday season with someone who loves me for who I am. Next to that, material things just don't have the same appeal they used to.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

mailin 0 #82 December 26, 2003 I felt really special this year. This is the first Christmas in 12 years that my mom was actually there. She is bipolar and has sesonal defective disorder and like clockwork goes into a mental hospital around my birthday (Nov. 21) and returns in February - always missing my very favorite holiday (christmas) - but not this year!!! I was able to get her a nice gift basket with lots of lotions and a 6 pack of unreleased barbara streisand CDs (her fav., and now my dad and brother hate me as they live with her). Got my dad a bunch of omaha steaks, which he was loving! Got my brother a GC for a tandem jump at my DZ - now he has no excuse to not go with me next year! LOL I got my hubby a ham radio and some wireless headphones, gamecube games, clothes and some other small stuff. My folks got me a brand spank new sewing machine (about $300!!) which I was so surprised to get. I also got a nice suit for work, a really nice perfume set, swarovski crystal from hubby (xmas tradition), some scrapbooking stuff (I'm addicted), a wicked kewl MP3 palyer, lots of lotions etc. and money. Then I spent Christmas day with my family - dinner with my Nana and great aunt and her son (dads cousin) whom I hadn't seen since my wedding. Then over to my great aunt and uncles house. They're getting on in years, but it was so great to see them. They're really special people to us. Then it was home, to sit in our lonely house with our cats and wonder if we should clean up or not Hope everyone has a really great new year!

mcneill79 0 #89 December 29, 2003 This is one of the sweeter, more creative presents I got. I'm moving to California in January... so my cousin got me a T-shirt that says Brooklyn (where we grew up together), with a note that said " A little something to remind you of home and all the people who love you." and a bottle of California wine, with a note that said "A little something from California where I know good things will happen for you." I got all teary eyed when i read the notes. Other than that I got lots of gift certificates. Can't wait to go out shopping now.
