This is going to sound really pathetic, but I didn't really want/need anything, and so we made an agreement to not do gifts this year. We did them in our own ways anyway, lol...

My mom and dad got me:
2 jugs of litter (I asked for litter...I'm not kidding)
a playset for the cats
an electric skillet/frying pan for my stews and stuff
2 packs of steaks to put in the freezer for my outdoor grill I bought last year
1 box of jumbo shrimps wrapped in bacon (anything wrapped in bacon is better!)
Bag of homemade slim jims from the butcher shop (not greasy and gross like the store bought ones).

Got a compliment from my mother, and to be honest, that meant the world to me. Kinda makes me teary.

I was happy just doing for others. Gave away a ton of extra bags of flour, sugar, peanutbutter and stuff on Freecycle yesterday. Figured others could use some now, and it will just sit around here. The woman who took the flour and sugar and peanutbutter gave me some of her homemade dog treats since she saw that I do rescues.. so nice, since she didn't have to give me anything... Freecycle is all in spirit of doing for others and recycling.

All in all it was a good day, and it was because it was spent with my family without arguing for once, lol, and we all just appreciated being together.
