Merry Christmas TSG. Brag about your presents please?

I don't know what I got yet. The kids are not up yet. I should go be a creep and rip open my gifts.

If anyone sends you a card you believe contains cash, accidentally holding envelope over steaming coffee machine has been known to open such envelopes - if the cash should accidentally fall out you could always feign not having received it.

* Ahem * Not that I've ever actually done such a thing ... but a mate once did.

Have a good day.

Dudes, I got an Ipod. I totally did not expect it. I am very excited

My wife got a Tramontina cookware set and Cabelas heavy oversized flatware sets. She got the bear, turkey, pine cone, and lab dog.

I got an 8" rabbeting planer/jointer and a boardmaster attachment for my chain saw.

The dogs got large chew bones and barking dog hand puppets.

I got a Pittsburgh Steeler watch and a picture of my girls with my grandson. I also got my very own jar of cashews, I don't have to share.

This family had a very rough year but I know I am loved and thought of. To me this is maybe the best Christmas ever. I still have my kids, I still have my house, and I still have the dogs. I am missing the Bec but I am sure she is smiling on me from above.

I didn't have much money and I don't know how to shop for young ladies anymore so I just gave my girls $50 each. I gave my son the same thing he gave me last year and this year.......nothing.

He is the most selfish person in the world. His mother would be ashamed of him. Even his aunt's say he has a problem with "all take and no give". He has always been that way but it is starting to come back to bite his arse.

I do not understand it at all. The rest of this family is generous to a fault. I think Jeff takes after his natural father actually. Joe didn't even pay support for these kids. He didn't give them medical or anything else he was court ordered to do. Becky and I did it all for them. I don't dislike Jeff but he isn't getting anything from our estate when I am done. It will all go to the girls and I will let them know that if they give him anything from it I will come back to haunt them.

I let him and his girlfriend and 2 kids live here for 2 years and he couldn't buy me a jar of cashews?? That is just selfish. I love him but I am done giving to him until he changes his ways. I doubt he is going to change so......

cashews....yummy
enjoy 'em

them "young lady-ish" daughters ARE perplexing....i got mine some new shin guards for soccer....and a new coat....WAY different from what her friends wear....so it's a big risk.....but it'll look great on her (so I got my finger's crossed )

and i stuffed her stocking with a bunch of things she always needs....cosmetically speaking....and a sushi gift card, some christmas stockings, acrylic paints...

i have NO idea what she got me....i asked for some warm, heavy duty, around-the-house socks.....she told me "that's lame"

i'll let ya know how it turns out....she's not even up yet

and i hear ya....grinches are no fun....

merry christmas, scott

I got my daughter one of those, along with a $40 iTunes card. She has already downloaded all of her songs this morning and is loving it.

I am typing on my new Logitech wireless keyboard (and mouse). The thing i'm really loving is that you can sit across the room and hit the zoom button on the keyboard and it enlarges the font so you can see what you are typing from a long distance away! Makes for some comfy letter writing in the future.

My other favorite is in the pic...my kids got me 3 new Willow Tree figurines (I collect them), each one representing our relationships.

Did anybody get any rocks in their stockings?
