The looks on my kids' face when they were opening their presents is far and above anything tangible I could ever receive :)

The computer got a video card upgrade, so I can see ripples now, when I get to be on the "good" computer... Now all we need is RAM - and then it's MY turn :D

I would hate you for that, but my apathy is running on high right now.

Seems my place of work has decided the 'holiday' is friday and monday, but that I have to work sat and sun...

You do the math...

My most unusual gift this year was from hubby. He bought me the noble title of 'Baroness' from the Independent Sovereign Principality of Sealand located just outside of the UK.

Very interesting to read the history of this place.

U may now address me as 'Your Grace' :)

I got a new digital camera (Kodak Easyshare P850), assorted chocolates / books / perfumes / wine / tchotchkes from family members... and a new tile floor in the kitchen and dining room of our house! My husband was down on his hands and knees for the past two and a half days putting it in; I'm so thrilled with it.

Plus, my kids and husband and I went to see The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe today after we all opened presents. And, I have a lamb shoulder and scalloped potatoes baking in the oven for dinner that smell heavenly.

Happy Holidays to all, and to all, a good night. :)

I got very little today itself, but over the last couple weeks I've gotten an airsoft gun(cheapie), Killzone for PS2, Battlefield 2 for the PC(latter two i bought myself).. But I WILL be getting another 512MB stick of RAM, and a much better Airsoft gun. I also got this cheap-ass buck-hunting game from an aunt, but I refuse to count it.

I made out like a little bandit today! I got 4 Little Apple Dolls (one of which is a limited edition), the 1st season of Charmed, the full box set of the anime Wolf's Rain, a handful of gift cards and assorted clothing. The dolls were my very favorite thing. I love the series...sort of Japanese horror/gothic dolls.

I got my grandma her very first DVD player. It was a riot trying to teach her how to use it and explaining to her that she doesn't have to rewind her DVD's. :-)
