What was the best gift you got this Holiday Season?
I had two. First, my parents took the picture of my cats that I sent in my Christmas cards and had it photo transferred onto a t-shirt for me.
The other one wasn't a gift, but a pure Christmas miracle. I had a cat when I lived at home, Woody, and we were the best of friends. When I moved out I wasn't able to take him and I left him with my parents. This was about 10 years ago and he hasn't been in the same room with me since I moved out (cats can hold a grudge). On Christmas Eve he wandered into the living room and let me pet him. I almost cried I was so happy.

The best gift I got was a laptop from my parents. I really want to go back to school and now I don't have any more excuses.

Actually he told me they bought me golf balls, and when my husband told him to be quiet, he said, "What? I didn't tell her about the golf club!" Of course I was still sitting right next to him!

Satellite Radio and gas logs for the fireplace to replace the very old gas stove that is in it now.

Ditto on the Sirius brand. He got me the one for my car, and now I just need the home kit. If I want to bring it to work, what do I need to do that?  Do I just need the adapter to plug it in, and will it play through a cheap non-satellite radio type "boom box" ?

I got a luggage set (for my cruise in May) and my daughter bought my PJ's. They are too big, but I would never tell her that. I just put them on and sinch them up.

My two youngest sons got some great board games- I particularly enjoyed playing Risk- Star Wars Clone Wars Edition.  My daughters all got some new bedroom furniture for me to put together. And my youngest daughter got a ton of modeling clay and some project books- so that will give us plenty to do for awhile. My oldest son got an mp3 player, so I had an afternoon of installing software and ripping cd's (at least until he was comfortable with how the program worked- then he did the rest himself). As for gifts that were actually intended for me.... I am very much enjoying my new suede Eagles jacket.
