I got a Wii too! Well, it really was my gift! My adult children have had it all weekend!. I had to go back to work today and couldn't wait to come home and get started! They have all gone home now and it is all mine!:) That bubble balance IS tough, but fun! My favorite is table top tilt! I beat my 24 yr old daught at the Hula hoop and she is fit! Surprisingly, I am only 1 year older than my age!(must be a glitch).
I also received a Go Baby from my DH! Lotion, machine needles, wuilt needles, pins, pounce, makeup, Wii games, QS Gift card. my daughter gave us a gift card for dinner. my son gave me lotion and collage frame, my other son and DIL gave us a frame with a photo of their 4 month old baby in the womb! I am going to be a Grandma! Then also gave me a shawl, chocolates and a blanket oh and a small pine tree. I still have gifts to trade with my sisters this week! The best gift of all was celebrating the Birth of Jesus with all my family around me! It was so sad to see them leave especially in this storm.

I also scored a wii (finally after years of begging to get one) and the wii fit board. I'm going to pick up a few games on Amazon and in the stores this week. Those are the highlights of my loot. I'm happy :) Right, Left, Block... clank clank clank... Left Right Block.. I am digging the boxing. I am terrible at the bubble thing where you have to steer yourself down the river.... and sadly my wii fit age is 15 years older than I am so I have some serious work to do!! It's a goal of mine to look hot in a bikini by this fall when my sister gets married in Cancun... don't want to scare away the tourists ya know :D |
For the last 3 or 4 years I've been exchanging quilty gifts with a friend I met online. This year I made her a pillow for her bedroom (she bought a new bed) and she sent me a wall hanging in wonderful colors that are SO ME! Exchanging gifts with my friend is one of the highlights of Christmas. I'm so excited to see what she made for me and to make something special for her. The funniest thing about this is that we've never met... never even talked on the phone. Someday we'll get together and won't that be fun!

So when I go spend money at my favorite material store I (we) can eat out! LOL! I feel fortunate, not complaining at all!
There...feel better now...pulling myself up by the boot straps and remembering there are ladies who no longer have their husbands and would take one that buys dumb gifts. I apologize. I called my SIL and he will come and save the TV from my foot (through the screen!!) LOL! And the DH from my silent, thin lips! Good thing the DGD bought me a good book to read! Think I'll hit the hay! |
DM bought me a beautiful Shark iron that was recommended to her by our LQS. It is all chrome and quite heavy. I hope it work out OK- have not heard good reviews of Shark irons, so I hope it works right. DH bought me a beautiful standing jewelry/lingerie cabinet.

BEST GIFT... even tough my husbands skin biopsies were cancerous, they are not melanomas! He is scheduled for removal.
My husband bought me a Babylock Shashiko and some clothes. My son and his wife gave us a beautiful pic of our grandsons and a dital picture frame(have been wanting one of those). I think we are receiving a large family portrait from the children when our daughter from Ohio comes....can hardly wait. |
