saphyriaWell, Christmas is mostly over now. Our whole family couldn't be here all on Christmas, so we had our Christmases (Christmi?) at different times. This is the norm here, as we have a pretty big family. We had only two present-openings this year, compared to last year's three. One amoung my uncle-aunt-cousin family(Mike, Mary, and Meredith), brother-and-sister-in-law family (Joe and Rachel), grandparents, parents and me, and then one between my sister-nieces-and-brother-in-law family and my parents and me. Jim, my other brother, is stuck in Orlando, working and preparing to go to Japan. He didn't get to come. But he'll be here in March.
That might be hard to follow, but that's the way it is.
And because everyone else is doing it...
From Parents:
1. Shiny new laptop hence known as "Hotchka"
2. Black leather and silver choker with matching earrings. (V. nearly goth)
3. Silver spiral necklace with blue heart-shaped topaz in center.
From Brother and Sister-in-Law :
1. Lovely silver thermal travel mug. (Huuuge!)
2. Two packages of Millstone coffee (Swiss Chocolate Almond and Kalua Creme)
3. Basket full of bath-spa stuff, including yet not limited to: Two (2) bottles of Shower gel/bubble bath ("Wake Up" and "Sleep Ease", ironically); Two (2) bars of soap (also Wake Up and Sleep Ease); One (1) Fizzy lavender bath ball; One (1) bottle of "Wake Up" body lotion; One (1) scented sleeping eyemask; One (1) Jasmine-scented moisturizing makeup remover.
From Uncle, Aunt, and Cousin:
1. Fuzzy blue vest with MED&A on it (My uncle's company)
2. One pair of dangly gold earrings.
From Sister, Brother-in-law, and Nieces:
1. Blue leather wallet (sho soft!
2. Blue striped sweater.
From Grandparents:
1. MONEY.
2. Five Arkansas Quarters on an Arkansas-shaped plaque.
From Alana:
1. Cheesecake-, Creme-Brule-, and **Tiramisu**-flavored coffee. (have drunk (drank?) Cheesecake so far. Am saving dessert of the gods-er.... Tiramisu for last)
2. Very pretty (huge) crimson mug with pretty flowers on it. (holds coffe well.)
3. Gilderoy Lockhart figurine with Amazing Dueling Action! Much fun. He looks like a pansy. The flower. No really.
That's my loot so far. It's been a very nice holiday. But I don't want it to end! Not just yet!!!!
