what did you get for christmas!
« on: December 27, 2015, 08:56:30 AM »

Just wondering what everyone got for christmas??  My hubby and I just exchanged a few stocking fillers as we are going to buy something for the house this year.  He did buy me a donkey plaque for the wall.....its lovely.  My brother bought us a night stay in a clamping pod  :) might be fun.

I've been well and truly spoiled, my husband got me a leather jacket (which I knew about as I chose it myself).  On Christmas morning he insisted I try it on and said it looked a little bulky, when I investigated there was a parcel in the pocket...... with a diamond necklace in it!

Shoes, flip flops, slippers and ankle wellies, all bought in a sale. Doesn't sound that exciting, until you realise how very long, narrow and shallow my feet are! I have never had wellies before as even with several pairs of socks on they are like boats. All from DH, plus a few bits and pieces and a cheque as DH has come into a lump of money. He wants me to spend it all on me. Think I'll open a savings account and think about it. DD gave me a spiraliser, which yes I do want! I can't tolerate even free from pasta, but spiralised courgette goes down a treat. Even if I never used it for anything else, it would be worth it for that. DS bought us a Bluetooth thingy that connect to the iPad etc, so we can listen to music etc.

Morning ladies,  I got a posh Filofax which on the basis I have an iPad no one really gets.  I do like a book though.
I also had a nice sparkly Swarovski watch plus a nice handbag.
Off my daughter I had a nana to be hamper which was lovely - full of bits and bobs - journals,  the scan pics etc.  Plus new headphones for my meditation.  Lots of other nice things too - spoilt and loved and grateful ❤️

Morning:

I was spoiled for birthday and C.mas: books, bubble bath, undies, warm tops, jewellery, and best of all NO anxiety  ;)

Hubby had already got me a jacket which I knew about as I chose it. He also bought me two necklaces & a pampering voucher. One necklace is a locket which he has put locks of grandchildren's hair into. Daughter had to clip some hair whilst they were sleeping & post to hubby. 😊

Now I need to buy: slippers, wicking walking layers for me; I also have an idea for Himself which I saw B4 C.mas so can now ask him to buy it via Amazon ………

I think that Mum was OK with what we choose thought each parcel was greeted with 'oh not more clutter, what ever will I do with it all' …………  :-\ bugga ……….

The older I get, the more I enjoy things I can use up - Lush stuff, bath stuff, chocolates, candles etc. or that die - like flowers!! I don't have a lot of house room for 'stuff'.

Sounds like you all got spoilt and quite rightly too.

A year's sub to a French organ magazine and an organ music DVD (now there's a surprise!) from Hubby; yoga book from daughter;  lovely deep red jumper from sister; nightie from Dad; skirt from one SIL/hubby and M&S voucher from the other/hubby; and some lovely little presents from my very kind pupils.  Can't complain really........... ::)

My best pressie was the engraved eternity ring from DH, a total surprise - alongside the other things from my Amazon list and some super perfume.  My bestie got me arty things from my list, Parents got us all sorts, best one was the comfy dog walking boots, also some new bath sheets, calenders with our dog breeds on, fluffy dressing gown.  Daughter got me a banana holder (dont ask) new Granddaughter a beautiful silver locket for her and my daughter's picture.

Photo of all my Godchildren together - ALL smiling, ALL looking at the camera.  So precious  :-*

Photographic print of one of my favourite views, near where I grew up - love it for the memories but also it is a stunning photograph

CD of violin concertos by Joseph Boulogne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges - I heard a programme on him on Radio 4 a while back and loved the extracts of music they played, so have been dropping heavy hints since then - they obviously worked!

LOADS of books.   :)

And what seems to be a year's supply of handcream
