Re: Did Everybody Get What They Wanted For Christmas?

I wanted a peaceful, quiet day with lots of phone-ins from my faraway family and friends--and I heard from people all day long.  It was very pleasant.

 

My favorite material gift was a rare and very beautiful book I never would have dreamed of trying to acquire for myself.

Re: Did Everybody Get What They Wanted For Christmas?

 The only thing I wanted for Christmas was my cancer being in remission.  I got that news earlier in the month.  Other than that, I received two starbucks gift cards, home goods gift card, Vera Bradley pocketbook, Garmin vivo and a couple things my niece made in ceramic class.  I made out like a bandit.

Re: Did Everybody Get What They Wanted For Christmas?

Yes we did. Christmas Eve our son called us and was on the way to Helen Davos Children's Hospital. Our 13 year old granddaughter had a chicken bone stuck in her throat. They were able to give her some medicine to relax her. Her Mom stayed with her all night. The next day that did a gastro look down her throat and the bone was gone. I think the med she had to relax her helped the bone go to her tummy and will be digested. We were so worried. She went home on Christmas and was fine. I reall thought she was going to have to have surgery. So yes we did get what we wanted.

Re: Did Everybody Get What They Wanted For Christmas?

Didn't want anything. . . didn't get anything.  So, I guess that's a yes.  I have extremely low expectations for the holidays in our situation--no family to speak of, relative in poor health.  So at least I wasn't disappointed and angry!  Just happy to be here!!!!  

 

Enjoy what you got!!!!
