Christmas

Well, Santa really came through for me this year. It is no secret I have a lifelong love affair with waffles and ice cream, and after indulging my addiction on the boardwalk over the summer, I am ecstatic that a waffle maker showed up under the tree. Now I just have to calculate how many hours in the gym it takes to neutralize the waffle effects.

I also received a nice gold chain, to replace the one I broke this year. I can finally wear my 'diamonds' again that I got 2 Christmases ago. Looks beautiful.

Next we come to the relaxing part of the gifts. Do I seem a little stressed out to you? Apparently Santa felt I needed a nice time-out in the massage chair, which feels surprisingly good, with back massage, heat, and a vibrating seat. (not THAT kind of vibrating).

The foot massager also feels wonderful - I am a very lucky woman to have recieved such nice gifts. A lot of thought went into the gifts this year. They are not homemade pictures that say 'i love you mommy', they are not more heartfelt, but they will be appreciated on a stressed out day.

On the flip side, I think everyone was appreciative of the gifts they received as well. They gave pretty good hints AND I actually managed to pick out some clothes for #3 that weren't lame! What an amazing feat that was!
