    Now, don't get me wrong - Christmas for me has always been about family, and gifts are about finding that perfect something as a token of your love and appreciation - but that man (the ex) would buy me stuff like a can of wood stain, and I am not a crafty or handy person and wouldn't even know how to open the can.

    Glad to hear he's your ex! Wood satin isn't even a gift I would give an enemy I always be sure and give my mother a really nice gift, this year it'll be a 7 day cruise!

    Ah I'm tempted to take all the credit for the gift, especially with the cute comment , but I can't. There are 5 of us all pitching in for the trip for our mother, so I won't be footing the bill entirely, although I wish I made enough to do so!

    Now wait a minute, Susie. Just because every child can't get his wish that doesn't mean there isn't a Santa Claus.
