[Haibane Shadsie]

My loot-list... as my family celebrated the Eve instead of the day... brother's kids... custody issues...

I got:

A couple of cute longsleeved shirts from my mom...

A little Kodak digital camera from my mom... (I used it today to take pictures while over at my sister's house for gift unwrapping! I love my new toy!)

A sparkly cross-necklace from my sister...

Smoked cheeses and beef jerky from my brother. He smoked them himself, and it was a gift I knew about that I was looking forward to a lot, because... well... he is the KING OF THE BARBEQUE.

And, from my online boyfriend The first volume English release of the Trigun manga, and DVDs 2 and 3 of the anime "Haibane Renmei", which I have just watched and have a headache from crying/emoting over.


I gave: (I mostly made presents for people this year. I was low on money and my family likes my artwork).


To my 11 year old and 9 year old nieces... paintings I painted them for their bedrooms. They just moved and have been bugging me to make them some artwork to hang on their walls. Small acrylics on canvas, of a unicorn and of a flying, flaming horse, respectively. I also got them kid's art kits with crayons and watercolors and stuff in them, because they like to make art, too.

To my sister and to my brother in law... I custom-painted a mirror for their house. I made it out of an old medicine cabinet door... painted its frame, and did a painting of florals in glass paint on the glass.

To my brother... a customized walking stick. He had a long pine branch. I painted a moutain scene on it... and affixed a calf skull and jawbone to it! I also gave it a feather and a vertebrae... he loves it. I told him that it looks like it is something that should be used in strange rituals. He can scare other hikers away with it!

To my other niece and nephew, hard to shop for teenagers... I got gift certificates to the mall.

Oo, fun thread!

Ok, first my give list- for my boss I bought a coffee mug from Starbucks with his name on it. The man is obsessed, I tell you. For my brother a new billabong shirt & matching necklace. For my sis, a disco ball lamp to go with her new decor. And for my parents, a two-night stay in any hotel of their choice.

On the recieving end-
* lots of perfume and bath sets (from grandparents, parents and parents of my online friends *winks at Shatterheart*)
* an emergency kit for my car (yay!)
* travel bag, perfect for my upcoming Maine trip
* A great novel from my grandparents
* cash, of course
* Indiana Jones on DVD! SWEEEET! *jumps on Shatterheart*
* some really pretty bracelets from Lightbringer, they're awesome too!
Oh, and from my work...I won a drawing for a really nice stereo system...I'm still in shock about that. It's like this huge 4 piece set that I was just blown away by...

so praise be to the Lord Almighty for reminding me how much He and those around me love me! Merry christmas everyone!
