A *real* Christmas list
Well, we'll start with the crappy: Bonnie and I lost the apartment. Apparently, somebody put another bid in in front of the couple we were working with. Bogus. Enough of that.
Did almost all of my Christmas shopping today and I, unfortunately, spent too much money (as usual). In any case, I'm pretty thrilled with everything I picked up and can't wait to send it all out and hear what everybody thinks about it.
Doing this reminded me that I haven't posted a real Christmas list so...here one is in case you're still looking to spend more money on me:
-Digital Camera (nothing fancy, just enough to point, click, and upload)
-Gortex gloves
-Something like gortex socks (don't even know if they exist but something to keep my feet warm and dry. Thick socks will *not* work as they won't leave any space around the foot and will actually make my feet colder. Something thin and, most importantly, dry. Also, those little pads that you crack and then they create heat won't work because there isn't enough space in my ski boots.)
-XBOX 360 Games (buy them used from stores like "Electronics Boutique/EB". They're exactly the same game and usually 1/2 off or more). I'll probably like any game. one day i'll even have a TV to play them on.
-Money (i'm not even kidding)
-A block heater for my car
I feel like I'm forgetting some stuff....
Anyway, i'm sure most people have already spent $1,000s on me so it probably wont' matter anyway. Right? Right?

i'll go return the presents i've already bought for you and give you the cash. how romantic!
Could have used that xmas list a couple of months ago. I'm shopped and wrapped and under the tree except for the boxes I have shipped to you already. But I'll keep some of the things on your list in mind in case I feel a shopping rush coming on and feel like spending more on you. hee hee As for the weather, it was 16C here yesterday and 14C today. Nice eh? I know you hate, but we are going to pay for it now, the temp is dropping very fast, the freezing rain warning is up and the high tomorrow is expected to be minus 1C. Brrrr. And snow for the next four days. So hate us no more.
Bonnie feel better. Hey, did Bon get the box I sent her?
love

Hi honey, I was right, I missed on of your narratives here with the pictures of the little tree. It looks very loved and you two look great. I'm glad you like it. I'll track the one down tomorrow that I sent Bonnie, I can't imagine where it went. I'm really sorry you didn't get that apartment, sounded great. Got an email from Sheree Shannon (Hanover) today and she said to get off your ass and go meet her daughters. hee hee Actually she said she couldn't imagine with the size of Banff that you hadn't run into them by now. If no one has said it yet, thanks honey for keeping us all informed with this blog thing. I look forward to it every day and hopefully now . . I won't miss anymore. I can't believe it did that. Love you,
mom
