Things you absolutly DON'T want for Christmas

Yep, SG, that is what it is all about. Even in the past, when I have fretted about not being able to get for people what I want to give (and I also tell my family I don't want anything...but they don't listen) Christmas comes and I am with my family, laughing and joking...that's the best gift I could ever get, and I count myself extremely lucky for having it.

Cheers to everyone, whatever holiday you might celebrate, and take time to show your loved ones how much you care.

I don't want my sister's to give me anymore T shirts that are 2 sizes too small or too large and have stupid stuff silk screened on them, like "Save the Manatees" or "I Love Vancouver" (never been there anyway).

I don't want a 22 inch non stick frying pan (I returned the one they gave me for my birthday). I rarely make an omelet for 15 people!

I don't want anymore wierd flavored vinegars or olive oils from the gift shop of the Trappist Monastery in Conyers, Georgia. I haven't used the ones they gave me last year or the year before.

But they look so pretty in the gift shop, sitting there on the shelf. They are just screaming out "buy me, buy me!".
