OT-Decided to do something nice for me

I was wrapping all the stuff for the kids this morning. Then I looked at what I got for myself and I thought--man have I been bad this year. Socks--that is all I am getting--socks?!

So I did something I feel moderately (but not too much) guilty about. I just ordered myself an LED hoop. Low-end LED hoop but that is what is in my budget. But I have wanted one since I saw someone with one 2 summers ago.

Hope it gets here in time for Santa to leave it under the tree!

That's so funny/cool, when I saw the title of your post, I thought "I bet she got herself one of those cool lighted hoops like on her avatar"!

Good for you.

LMC has cut her list to the bone, (pretty proud of her for that, not too spoiled) she'll still do pretty good from Nana/Santa, so I'm not gonna worry about her too much. I told her "we" were getting a low-end digital camera for ourselves, plus what ever smaller things she wants. Waiting till the after Christmas sales.

Christmas is good again, now that it's non-alcoholic, huh? I'm so grateful for that.

This is my 5th alcoholic-free holiday season, and I'm ALREADY taking it for granted! Boy it's nice over here. Come on over ya'll! Ha.

Thanks and God bless us all,
Coyote

THAT's what your avatar is: I can see the person now! I'm so unobservant.

GOOD FOR YOU!

I am going to get myself something for a stocking this year. I know I'm getting very welcome gifts of cash from parents, but I think I should get to open something on christmas day, even if I have to buy and wrap it myself )

I had to PM her a long time ago, it was driving me crazy, or I'd still be wondering.

Thanks and God bless us all,

I looked up LED hoop as soon as I read her post. Duh! What else would an LED hoop be? Big earrings?

Here's the one I got (CAN't wait to get it)
YouTube - NEW Trick Concepts LED Hoop

lol--wiked if I can get my son to get the video going I'll post--not sure if I will post on youtube???? If I get the video going I'll do the ninja move naive!

coyote that is hilarious--I guess I am pretty transparent. My first year without alcohol--looking forward to it!

Kids gifts are pretty trimmed down. I actually bought them something they need (well older son)-a cheap laptop-since older DS is always confiscating mine to do his homework.

That is just too cool for school, gal!

I see they are selling hoops now at the gym I joined. They are heavy too!

Too funny! I was thinking "what in the world is an LED Hoop, lol!!!" Could never splurge on such a thing myself considering how inept I am on hula's these days. I tried using my kids' and am flabbergasted that I have LOST my skills! What the hey? Anyway, have fun with that thing!
