I LOVE gift cards.
Since John isn't working, we made a pact years ago , no gifts. Same deal with all my friends since we see each other all the time, pay dinner bills back and forth etc, plus a lot of their kids are getting married this year.

John's son and DIL gave us some neat cooking items, small but needed as I like to cook. I haven't had a working oven for over a years so I'm saving for a new one.

My brother gave me a total surprise of $$, after we made a No gifts deal. (I deserve it though!

))

Went to parties on Dec 24/25 so I was kept busy so I wouldn't funk out. I really did have fun, though.

Ralph got it for me, from a Site Dukedogsmom posted in Marketplace. That thread is here

A few awesome things from cafepress. One says "adopt a black greyhound, dreaming of a home" and it has an adorable picture of a black greyhound sleeping. The other says dance like no one's watching. It has a grey greyhound in a tutu.lol.

Other than that a lot of POTC "junk".

A piece of aztec gold, a few italien charms and earings, one has a compass the other has a key and P.

I got a hilarious book "how to live with your neurotic dog" It's hilarious, I would reccomend it. And I got the best book ever, LEO a greyhounds tale. I loved it.

**ramanth** · 12-27-2006, 09:41 AM

Thanks Amy! Good job Ralph.

My whole family went together and gave me a digital camera. The same one as Wenisrubber, the Canon 540. I am NOT a very good photographer. The high school in the district where I live has a class in the adult education division every semester, digital photography 101, so I'll be signing up as soon as spring enrollment starts.

Cassie got a new package of treats. Thank you, Grandmeowmie!

GreyhoundGirl, PotC was on television Christmas night- I was loading the dishwasher and kind of half watching it -- and I thought of you! I wasn't a big Johnny Depp fan till I saw it. Now I am!
