    "Tim Minchin is an awesome Aussie. I love his work. Take a listen to some of his other music. He's witty and talented."

    And as I Love Birthdays said,

    "I'm done with my Christmas shopping. Except for my husband. He's impossible to buy for.

    I LOVE Christmas. One of our local radio stations started 24/7 Christmas music today, and I have it streaming on my computer. My 2 kids are happily dancing around to it."

    And Newborn checked back in on her thread and said,

    "Dear all,

    Thanks for your posts. I'm glad that most of you loves Christmas as well. But hey, it's up to each and everyone. I know it's personal how you feel abt it.

    Laverite, I wouldn't mind you hitchhiking my thread with egg nog and thanks for the Johnny Depp pic

    Butterfly, You got me so curious abt what you've got for your family??? You say you went all out??!!

    Ziddina, I'd love to see your pics but I don't think I will post any. I live alone for the moment in an apartment and I don't put up so much ligth and I don't have a tree. Since we're at my brothers place for Christmas.

    Love and out

    Newborn"

    "Well hopefully my hubby won't look at this post then lol but I got him an Amplafire for his guitar so he can start playing. I got my sister in laws buckle accessories... like jewery and stuff. I got their boyfriends a wallet and a button down from buckle too. Their kids toys. And my mother in laws PJs and necklace. I still have more I want to get but that's so far like $300 worth... lol"

    And as Itsacult said,

    "We walked by Nordstrom tonight. There were 5 professional carolers with AMAZING 5 part harmony. Obvious pros.

    My JW wife walked away like a rat jumping from a burning ship. It was strange because my 2 little girls stopped to enjoy the moment."

    And as Snoozy said,

    "I too love Christmas...

    My favorite present I bought so far is tickets for my daughter and her hubby to see Seinfeld..

    he will be here in January.

    Their son is leaving for Madrid in January and I thought they could use a night out together..she is suffering from empty nest syndrome plus getting over Lyme disease.

    They love watching Seinfeld so one year I got them half of the videos and the next year the other half..then I skipped a year but I think they will love this! I am including cash so they can eat dinner out. I was going to make reservations but thought I would leave it up to how much energy my daughter has and let them decide where to eat.

    One year I gathered all the home photos and split them in four. I made one for each child and one for me. I put them in a fancy photo album so it would be special.

    They can add to them but they were pretty full.. I wish I had saved memories of their childhood like their favorite blankets or toys but who would have thought they would have ever graduated high school? They are in their 40's and 50's now.

    Just wanted to add that when I went to purchase the tickets I was told they were sold out..well she kept playing with the computer and finally she said "I found two"...I almost cried..finally something went in my favor!

    Snoozy..going to purchase the tree tomorrow.. (It's finally on sale)"
