Some towels
Holiday nog mix

That's about it - my family decided to draw names this year to cut down on the amount of shopping we used to do when all nine siblings bought gifts for each other AND all the nieces and nephews, plus our parents. I don't mind because all that shopping was a real hassle.

Sheesh, this Christmas was a regular snooze-fest. I got *one* sweater (which I promptly returned) and some cash. Woo hoo. Guess the stuff on my wish list (DVD player, digital camera, stereo) will have to be purchased out of my own thin pockets.

Oh...but I finally got the U2 video DVD. Today.
