Come on! Tell me! What'd ya get?

[LixyChick]

OK.....I'll start!

Mom-in-law gave me the most beautiful Father Christmas.......he stands about 20"high and is dressed in brown velvet....carrying a tree and a staff...and has the most classic facial characteristics.....he's beautiful!

She also gave me a monet' treasure box.....with faux jewels on it.....it's for trinkets...and it's lovely!

She also made me and hubby a needlepoint Santa and had it framed........heirloom quality even!

And....this little stuffed toy guy....that when you press his belly he says stuff like, "Really darling...I insist you take the remote and we'll watch whatever your heart desires"! LMFAO!

Hubby gave me a diamond necklace *swoon*.....and clothes and body mist......(I gave him a PS2....which equals a car or tools ina man's world!)

Sis-in-law gave me a beautiful ornament and a Lenox serving tray!

Oh.....and I got a zit on my chin that looks like I'm growing another head.......and Mother Nature came for her regular monthly visit! LOL!

LixyChick,

Well, your last two presents are a sign that you are healthy, even if they are a tad inconvenient.

I must have been a good boy! I received Beethoven's last 4 symphonies, Bullfinch's Mythology, and Aesop's Fables.

Rumor had it that if I had been a bad boy, all I would have received was Beethoven’s Last Movement.

[Lilith]

She is Christmasing with me too Lixy:D I swear I oughtta deck her damn halls!:D

I got something I have been wanting ever since I can remember...a sewing machine! A simple Singer with no bells and whistles for me to break. :o

I got books I wanted, sexy nasty ones that a friend reccommended.

My mom-in-law got me a Willow Tree statue (Quietly encircled by love) and a friend got me the ornament Hope to go with the collection a friend from here has started for me:D

And for the first time ever Mr. Lil loved his pressie from me and it was a complete surprise! * happy dance*

My kiddos were sweet and thankful and are still in their jammies!

[LixyChick]

LOL jseal! Um....yeah! You can say that cause you've never had to [stay in the room] with Mother Nature 24/7.....if ya get my drift! Your gifts sound lovely....and you musta been a very good boy!

Oh ((((Lil))))! She must be a clone as I'm sure she's as much all over this planet today as Santa was last night! Well.....in her own biased way, anyway! *hands Lilith the string of garlic to ward off the need to sew *........RUN hun! Don't walk.......RUN away from that machine! Or....at the least.....if you get the hang of sewing.....don't tell anyone.....cause suddenly no one will be able to do their own stuff anymore!!! Fair warning! *pictures Lil's kids doing what the kids in "A Christmas Story" were doing after the presents were all unwrapped!* LOL! Sweet pic!

A couple of sweaters, a CD rack, puzzle, mone, Australian metal number plates with my name on, socks, hankies.

[gekkogecko]

Among the many other things, I got a stand-alone neon ( I mean the sealed glass tubing with some sort of gas ) gecko.

Very cool.

Lil, I hope someday to add to my collection, too. :)

We had two "family" presents--a car DVD player and membership at the local waterpark, with unlimited admission all next summer. I got two pairs of gold earrings, something I've been wanting but haven't wanted to spend the money on for myself. I also received a ceramic figurine of a little girl angel, asleep on a cloud, which has meaning for me. My son also had a present for me this year, courtesy of his school's Santa's Workshop--a gold ring with a red stone and a pair of Sapphire-like earrings. They, of course, are of gumball-machine quality, but I have worn them all day long.

We didn't travel anywhere this year and my family couldn't visit; I'll receive the vast majority of the goods probably next month. :) We also have friends coming over this evening, which I'm *very* excited about...I will open presents from them, and from a special friend who mailed me a package I got earlier this week.

Perhaps the best present (so far) has been the look of joy on my children's faces this morning.

[cowgirltease]

A webcam:D A cd Burner, another vcr with a dvd player, a camcorder, a new tripod, The Seabiscuit dvd I've been dying for, and my favorite perfume!! Damn, Santa must have thought I was a really good girl.:o :p

As always my Mum is the only one that gets me a gift

[LixyChick]

What was it Bilbo????

Oh wait.........are we talking..... Life ..........???? LOL! Now....that's a gift!

Sounds like a wonderful X-mas all around!

*Packs Mother Nature's bags and shoves her out the door with a ticket in hand to nikki's house!*

[LixyChick]

We had a very busy Christmas eve and Christmas day! Did a lot of visiting.......and even met my childhood idol yesterday!

I've only been married to Mr. Lixy since Sept. 2000.....but I've been considered family since he and I met......some eons ago! We have a famous personality in our family (through marriage...as a step-aunt)......but she's probably more of a local celeb.....(Tri-State, Pennsylvania area). Her stage name is Sally Starr.....and she is my mother-in-law's sister. When I was growing up, I never missed her television show......and I always thought she was soooooooooo beautiful and I wanted to be as pretty as her!

Well........through family squabbles and a long story I won't go into here......in all the years that I've been in this family, I've never had a chance to meet her......till yesterday.....Christmas day.....2003 (a day which I'll treasure forever)! I didn't act like a nutty fan on the outside......I was cordial and told Sally of my love for her when I was a child...and I shook her hand and she kissed my cheek and thanked me for being a fan all these years.......and inside I was screaming......OMG!!!!! Sally Starr just kissed me!!!!! I didn't make her pose with me (but I was dying to) and I didn't take a zillion pics of her (but I was dying to).....I only took a few that I hope she is in (as I was taking pics of everyone opening their X-mas presents.....and OOPS....Sally was in as many as I could get her in without seeming to take all pics of her!...LMFAO!) I'll check my cam later...and post a few if I can! Gotta be careful....she might sue me....lol! Anyway...I didn't ask for an autographed pic (but I was dying to) and I didn't swoon over her and make her feel uncomfortable (least I hope I didn't)......but I am in awe....still....this morning.....that I actually met her and talked with her.....about her latest appearances....she's 80 something and still makes personal appearances....and world problems......and her newest charity organizations....and me and hubby and our life together (she knew him when he was a little boy...lol!).....and about everything I could think of to say and not sound like a kook!

As you can tell......this was my best Christmas present of all.....but shhhhhhhhhhh.....don't tell hubby....he'll think I'm a kook! LOL!

To share who I'm speaking of......for those who never heard of Sally Starr (my aunt...*giggle*...ok....ok....by marriage)......here's a link to look at when you get some time!


Sally Starr (sallystarrshow.com/)

Hope it works.......I wasn't sure how to do that url thingy! LOL!

Love, Luck and Lollipops everyone......Muahhhhhhhh!
