One more year of good health in the household,
No trauma, no tears and no other nonsense.
No car problems, no house problems and I am still employed.
My Xmas presents were a great baseball playoffs, a Boston World Championship, Lance Armstrong's Tour and a Miami Heat win on Xmas day......I ain't gonna mention politics. :)
My friends are still healthy, happy and sometimes wise.
My bills are current and I'm halfway paid on my truck.
And instead of presents, everyone that really cared made
donations to the charities I support.....
The most important for me, at the moment is......

Well it sounds as if everyone got some terrific gifts (and Richard I love your gifts:))
The best present I got this year was getting to spend a little time with my niece Ashley (the one that stayed with me for the summer). It had been over 2 years since I had seen her so even though we only had the night to spend together, it meant the world to me. Plus my other niece and nephew stayed the night too! I took tons of pictures so now I have lots of memories:D
Some of the other things I received were:
Jewelry armoire, sterling silver earrings, nice warm fleece shirt, tons of victoria secret and b&bw spray, lotion, bubble bath & smeller for my car, a new digital camera w/1GB card and a case, pjs, a cute little doggie purse, a lasagna pan and a smores maker!
