Well, Christmas is over for another year. Hopefully, everybody had a wonderful time. I got together with my family on Christmas Day, and had a nice dinner, and an all around swell time. My parents ( who have been divorced for 20 years) put aside their differences ( at my sister and my request) and we all had dinner together. It went extremely well. They showed no ill will toward each other whatsoever. It made it a very special day. Anywho...... I was wondering how my fellow Zoners' Christmas was, and also what they got for Christmas this year. I'll start us out...... Every year I ask for books, because I love to read. I knew what I was getting because, I helped my hubby order them, to make sure it was the right things.

The books I got were......

"If I did it" about OJ Simpson>>>> I'm 3/4 of the way through it. That's why I wasn't on at all yesterday. I couldn't put it down LOL!!!

"Stolen in the Night" it's about the Groene children abduction case.

The "Dexter" 3 book set

The first season of "Dexter" on DVD

The 5 th season of "Six Feet Under" on DVD.

I also got a varied assortment of small unique presents and c$sh. I love the smell of money in a card LOL!!!  :biggrin:

OK,  lets hear what you got.  :yes:

I got a Mandolin w/a learn how tape, the Roots series on DVD, some gift cards for Dave's video, a carton of smokes, a big box of assorted flavored coffee, and an MP3player, some assorted decorative scented soaps,  and a Playstation2.  I think I shouldn't run out of things to do for a while.

Wow!!! You got a bunch of great stuff.  :yes: I 'm sooooo far behind on all the new gadgets LOL!!! My cell phone is as technical as I get. That coffee sounds real good.  I know you posted about playing guitar,and now the Mandolin, you must be very musically inclined. My mother in law sometimes plays the banjo.  :yes:

the usual clothes, some cool books, enough Lowe's gift cards to finish my never ending bathroom project, and, my gift to myself--a car with cupholders, because driving that convertible everyday was getting real old real fast.

A bath set, "Warm Vanilla Sugar" from bath and body works, a book called "Walking San Diego". I'm so excited about that book because a lot of them are hikes and places I haven't been. I honestly want to start at the beginning and work my way to the back of the book. Candy. A couple gift cards.  An ornament. Fruit and and some fuzzy socks. :biggrin:

One of my favorite pass times is music and playing around with different music instruments.

What kind of car did you buy? Cupholders do come in handy. I drive like a bat out of hell, and my soda constantly dumps over, when I make those ever so sharp turns. My car is a total disaster, because I eat and drive a lot.  :rolleyes:

It looks like you're pretty in to books too. I spend a lot of my spare time reading. I've heard that if you read a lot, it keeps your mind sharp in old age. I don't know if that's true. I wonder what it does, for a person who never had a mind to begin with (Me)?? Maybe, it will create a few wrinkles in my brain, and by my golden years, I'll be able to maintain a cognative thought.  :yes: Wouldn't that be great LOL!!!  :biggrin:

I love to read. I was very thankful for all of my gifts, but I was a lil' bummed that no one picked up on the Harry Potter hints I've been dropping for weeks. :biggrin:

They're awesome!  I've ordered them on numerous occasions and I've never had a problem with them. I highly recommend that you give them a try.
