And yet another Christmas is finished. This one came and went super fast! Here's a listing of my loot (in no particular order):

From Alex:
This Pi shirt.
This equally awesome shirt (that my Mom did not find amusing lol).
Bucky Balls! To say that these things are addictive is an understatement. My cousin lost 6 of them. Hopefully they're still in the chair over at Grandma's. D:
LOLCat magnets!
Dinosaur plant. It's supposed to be un-killable... but mine doesn't look like the picture. I think I over-watered it. o_0 I should note that I've never been able to keep a plant alive on my own. EVER.
2 seasons of Sex and the City.
HP and the Half Blood Prince on Blu Ray.
Books 2 and 3 from the "Wicked" series.
These awesomely super-soft sheets.
Fuzzy, thermal socks.
A Snuggie!
Various things to give me a sugar overload.

From Mom and Dad:
3" Memory Foam mattress topper (so comfy!).
Lots of Tupperware.
Some money.
$50 gift card to Hy-Vee (grocery store).

From Ginny:
SIU hoodie.

From Jeff:
A bunch of little silly stuff that he gets us every year (Silly string, a remote controlled car, a Magic 8 Ball, Etch-A-Sketch, etc. LOL).
A night at the Stoney Creek Inn.
$650 in cash! He spoils us like crazy.

From Grandma:
$100 in cash.

From Mel:
A bunch of very yummy baked goods.

I think I listed everything... Overall, it was a very good Christmas. Tomorrow is my last regular day at Bergner's. I had previously put in my 2 weeks notice, but they asked me to stay on as an on-call person. This just means that I have to work one or two days a month and I get to keep my 25% discount! I'm going to have free time again! The grant that ARC was hoping to get to promote me to volunteer coordinator fell through. So, I'll still be making the same amount at ARC. We'll just have to conserve our money a bit more. I think we'll be fine. Nothing much else has been going on here. Our New Year's plans consist of going to Jim and Amy's. aacooley, are you going? Lily has her yearly check-up/vaccination at the vet tomorrow. She'll just loooooove that.

How was everyone else's Christmas? :-D
