MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !!!!!

The 2 Christmases I received the worst gifts was....one...A PACKAGE OF HOOKS TO HANG UP MY MOPS AND DUSTMOPS....and two.....SHOWER CURTAIN ROD COVERS!!!! You know...those lovely color coordinated PLASTIC covers that surround the shower curtain rod ........These were from my lovely husband....you may know him as THE ITALIAN version of SCROOGE!!

After we opened all our gifts Christmas Eve this year...he asks me..."sooooo what did I get YOU for Christmas??" I thought about it ....nothing.....

He says....."didnt you get yourself something from me??"  NOPE!!!

He does buy all the girls a box of candy....I told him I really didnt want any this year....I am trying to be good....sooooo.....all the girls get their box....our only daughter says...."didnt you get your dtr any??" He goofed and put my name on the box and so she ended up not getting one.

AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!!!!!!!!!

I don't remember a really terrible one, but when our oldest boy was about 7, he wanted to buy his dad something. He bought cat-fish bait and wrapped it.

When his dad opened it, he opened the jar and it totally cleaned out the house quickly. We flung open all windows and doors, and we were all standing outside gasping for air.

It smelled terrible. He was embarrassed. We kept saying, "It's ok" its supposed to smell like that.

This year I got from my husband, an electric skillet, a steam cleaner and some pjs. Not bad gifts at all, then I thought--cook, clean and bed. huh????
I am sure he didn't think of it that way but it is kind of funny.

Oh my christmas was nice, but I have to say the present that made me laugh was from my brother. He really needs a job! LOL Oh well thats a blog in itself!!! LMAO

Ok, well when my husband and I went to open our present from my brother.....well it was a basket of apples. Don't get me wrong I like apples, but I really don't eat them that often. I really wonder what made him think I wanted apples? I mean apples!? Well, I have to say that was the wierdest gift I think I have ever gotten. Well, at least they weren't rotten!! HAHA

I work in registration at St Joseph Hosp in Kirkwood. Our hospital will be moving to Fenton the beginning of 2009. The new St Clare will have the newest in medical tehnology, and will focus on best practices and patient satisfaction and care. You can stop by and see our progress at 141 & Bowles Ave. My life is computer, day and night, for play and work. Gunsmoke, the tv show from 1955 to 1975, is my hobby. I have collected over 200 to 300 episodes of the 635 produced, plus the 5 Gunsmoke movies. 85 year old James Arness has a website where he talks to all us fans on a regular basis. But of course, Fox 2 is the best show on TV these days!!
