Seems like you raked in this year! My family has been struggling financially so we didn't have a very grand Christmas but I still got lots of lovely things that I really wanted. Mainly clothes - I got 6 or 7 cute tops/sweaters, as well as a pajama outfit from Victoria's Secret that, while nice, I plan to use as a large, fabric gift card toward less practical items I also got a GPS navigator, which was more of a relief than anything else! And $200 worth of gift cards, $70 of which has already been spent online!
Hope everyone was as blessed - materially and otherwise - as I was this season!
Does anyone else have the "Chedda gets Cheddar" banner at the top of this page about living off the government? Too funny, considering recent discussions here...
I got a TomTom! Sorely needed too, as I tend to have a very crappy sense of direction in the car (despite having an outstanding sense of direction on foot). I still haven't had a chance to really use it yet, because since I got it I've only gone up and down the street from my house.
And I am like you - I got stuff that I really wanted and that I had actually asked for PLUS my mother in law is going to pay to have my carpet cleaned after the first of the year - so I am very happy!

This word also has a underground meaning once you break it down. Let’s take “Bonn” for example and it actually turns into the word “Bone”. We all know gays use this word to describe the action of when they are fecal fisting their Cuban cabana boy at their sex bath house parties. Now let’s look at Roo, “Roo” is short for “Kangaroo”.So put the full true message together and you get“Bone a Kangaroo

Hey...how does the pedi paws work for your pup? Mine HATE to get their nails trimmed, but I am afraid I would invest $20 in the pedi paw just to have them just as scared.

well...there are LOTS of instructions that come with it, mostly to make sure your pup becomes accustom to it without hating it. it kinda depends on their temperament.
my dog is pretty chill mostly, but definitely gets a little fidgety when i try to trim her nails. use positive reinforcement for a few days if you think your dogs will have some trouble with it. hold it up to their face and let them inspect it(while it's off), and praise them thoroughly while doing so. do this several times a day.
in a day or two, do the same thing but turn the trimmer on so they get used to the noise(it's a little louder than i expected, but not too bad). this time praise them while giving them little treats, so they associated the device with good things. in about 4 days or so(that being if you have stubborn dogs), they should start to get more used to it.
once you think they're ok with it, try using it on one nail for only a couple of seconds to see how they react. one thing i really love about it is there's no pinching, and if too much pressure is applied, it stops. so it's really hard to hurt your pet while using it.
personally, i did a couple nails last night, and did a little bit of all the nails today. she seemed more ok with the front nails than the back, but overall she did really well. i still get nervous using it right now just because i'm so afraid of hurting her. but, just do a little each day until you think they're at a good length.

we have one also and it really has alot to do with temperment - because Dresden had NO problem from the get go with me using it - it works great - just takes a little more time then just clipping

I got a bread box.
Not and Xbox.
No really, I am the must difficult person to buy things for, so the wife goes ultra practical. I have to leave lists of things, or mark up catalogs of things I want.
We kept it very simple this year.
Though I did give out some cool Japanese kitchen knives to family members. Things that they will use nearly everyday, and something that most people would not buy for themselves.
Hmm...what did I get? Ah, a bottle of wine which I drank on Christmas Eve so I had a killer hangover X-Mas day. Some weenie dog pajamas. $$$$cash$$$$ Target giftcard A pink lady tool kit a couple of sweaters
Meg! I have a wii but I didn't get it for X-Mas! I neeed to get some more games for it though. I have never hooked it up to the internet though so I'm not sure how to get it on inforoo.

Ha! It is just a pink toolkit for ladies...or people who like the color pink, I suppose. It has a hammer, nails, tape measurer, wrenches, socket set, etc. Pink Lady Toolkit sounds a lot cooler though.

Wii Fit DMB live at the Gorge DVD DMB weekend on the Rocks DVD Phish - IT DVD Iron Man DVD Electric Griddle Books Wine Bath & Body gift card Too much candy and chocolate.....
Wow! Sounds like everyone had a great christmas! Now I feel like the only person in the world without a wii
I was gifted some money earlier this month to buy my new macbook, so my Christmas day gifts were few. I ended up with an Old Navy gift card, some PJs, and a sample bottle of Aveda hand lotion.
I don't do gifts for those outside of my immediate family and my friends know not to buy for me. So I usually don't get much but that's ok; I'd rather spend time with my friends than receive "stuff" from them!
