Christmas

Today was the first day in 19 Christmases that I have been able to sleep in.

Of course, I say "sleep in" loosely.

It was 8:30 am.

Usually, it is 6 or 7 in the morning, as either I would wake myself up or my younger siblings would.

I have to say, it was nice sleeping in as long as we did.

So I usually write a list of the things I've received because I like to look at the past lists as they tell me the sort of things that I liked, or thought was popular, or even what existed.

I received:

Rubber Spatula and Mixes from the family I nannied/babysat for.

A gift card to Barnes & Nobles from a family I helped out.

Beauty and the Beast movie from my brother.

Bumble the Abominable Snowman from my Build-a-Bear managers.

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring movie

Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers movie

Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King movie

It's been a great Christmas. :) Everything was entirely unexpected and I am very appreciative of the gifts I was gift. The Christmas Season is rather amazing.
