Holiday roundup
So I'm going to remember this holiday as the "Wii" holiday. Wii items made up an extremely large percentage of the total Christmas gifts at our family's gathering.
I gave my mother two Wii games.
She gave me three Wii games.
My stepfather gave her two Wii games.
I gave him one Wii game.
I gave them both an extra Wiimote, nunchuck, and wheel
So guess what we did most of the holiday and subsequent weekend? Played Wii, of course!
It was Wii-mania!
Overall a fun holiday. I got some very nice presents, and I think that the gifts I gave were enjoyed as well. My mother liked the stained glass piece I made for her especially.
Other stuff I received: An opaque projector. Will be very handy for doing paintings (well, the initial drawing for paintings, not the actual paint part). Will also be good for stained glass pattern-making. And heck, I can paint murals on the walls if I want to!
Also got a snowblower. A small single-stage electric one. And a roof rake to prevent snow buildup and ice dams on my roof. Cool stuff, but I'm a bit depressed about winter in general and thinking more and more about a warmer climate as a possibility. Someplace green and lush and warm and longer days and sunnier in the winter. But I guess for the time being, snow removal equipment is a practical gift.
