What item is the 10th day of christmas?
I think I missed that one.

yep.

but it seems... even though we now just pick one person and give just them a gift (with the exception of last year) every year for xmas, there's something that i get that just doesn't sit right with me.

last year, hubby had me also. and i started out my email with "what i really want doesn't fit in the budget, but i'd like a chromebook" and then i listed stores out for gift cards. but - hubby got me a chromebook!! (since it came in the mail directly to my house a day or two before actual xmas, i didn't have anything to 'symbolically' open on xmas itself... i just announced that hubby had me and i got a chromebook. although, now that i think about it, my mother-inlaw got me a card with some cash in it last year. huh. didn't get that this year though.

huh. now i see why some people just skip xmas....)

in other news, anyone need anymore sand??

whoa a chromebook, that's a gift for many years xD

yes it is!!

Should've done that in the family secret santa
'hey cousins, I know it doesn't fit in the budget but my pc is old...' xD
sure nobody really likes me that much but |D

aw, mdom, we like you!

the more i think about it now, the more i'm tempted to just sit out the gift parts next year on actual xmas....

awww and I like you guys a lot <333 but in my family I'm the rainbow sheep xD

but giving is the best part, trystan!

well, i'll give my daughters and hubby something crocheted, of course.

yes, the giving is the best part. but when the person who's supposed to be giving forgets who he's giving to? i'll pass on that one.

Aw, giving something you made is the best ^^

My dad is kinda the opposite. We told him it's a SECRET santa, but he tells everyone whoever he gets, because to hom as long as the person doesn't know, it's still a secret. So this year I'm the only one who knows his giftee xD

so hubby tends to take secrets seriously, and he won't tell anyone who he has.... unless it's unintentional, which i think happened on the day we picked names. he mumbled to his brother that he had me again. (younger daughter heard, so she knew he had me). but i'm pretty sure on xmas eve, older daughter tried to ask who he had, but he wouldn't tell her, other than saying "someone," all coy-like, because SECRET santa.

(had he told her, and she corrected him, i'm sure it wouldn't have mattered for the gift, since it *was* xmas eve already....)

hehe he could've traded like 'hey, you wouldn't be interested in a target's giftcard, would you...' 'DAD!!!'

LOL

it was actually older daughter who offered me the gift card. hubby was kinda 'oops.... whatever.'

appropriately random - i have a finsta on IG - wellthatwasrandom, if anyone wants to follow. it's private though.

you mean you post nudes there or private not public?

LOL.... no nudes. XD

i mean it's not public.

i also had a short chat with hubby, in which i told him i was hurt that he didn't remember he had me, and he asked if he was going to hear about it all year now (no, he's not).... and then told me "don't you think i feel bad enough about it?" so.... that sounds like an apology. i told him maybe he could make it up to me XD

Hai everybody
*Flops*

Congrats on the Chromebook Trys. That's a lovely present.
Sorry that your Christmas gift exchange hasn't been fun.

oooh nice I hope he makes it up to you R rated style!!

thanks, Zen.... {{hugs}}

LOL mdom! who knows.... he didn't actually answer!

also, who still needs sand?

i seem to have amassed quite a bit. check your trades. =)

Managed to get everything! ^_^
Now just posting the little bit for the bundle of holiday lights. I think I missed yesterday's release.

I still only have 11. Not sure what day I am missing then.

I'd love some more sand, Trys. I keep getting the no sand received messages. :(

give me a little bit, Zen, i'll send you some more sand!

Zen, check your trades, i send you some... it's not much comparatively, but now you have more! XD

Thank you both so much! I was just able to purchase the holiday light bundle that I missed.
*hugs*

woo hoo!! and you're quite welcome!

Riddles are fun! ^_^ It's even better when there are prizes!

Still four more days of posting. A lot can be achieved in those days. ^_^
