@Heather- The most crazy part was his explanation for WHY he got me the vacuum for Mother’s Day. He felt sorry for me “hunching over” with my hand held vac to clean up messes. So he thought this would save my weary back. My thought: So instead of you HELPING me clean up messes- you just got me a taller vacuum!?!! I refused to open it for a week!

This is a funny list… My husband told me to make myself an Amazon wishlist and I assumed it was for him to choose gifts for me, so I put a couple of nice bras on there. Then he insisted I send the wishlist immediately to my dad and stepmom, who had been urgently texting him about Xmas ideas for me. Oops, take the fancy bras off the wishlist for parents…

I got a Dyson Stick Vac for last Mother’s Day from my husband. He won’t be making that mistake again…..

[...] of the Week poster was 100% rounded-cornered photos, and boy was I pleased with myself. (If you stuff your own stocking, grab the corner rounder for $6 on Amazon!) Some of the card companies charge an extra $0.10 for [...]

Okay, I’m going to go find that 30-Day Shred DVD. Mama needs a new pair of jeans after Christmas. Holy appetizers, Batman!

Fair enough.

IF you ask for these items, then you will be delighted to receive them. True. My point is that, though these are all wonderful covet-worthy items, they ought not to be purchased unsolicited.

NO! If I were really wanting & begging for these things I would totally not be mad if I got them! Well maybe not ALL of them but some of them at least!

I have a scooba (roomba that mops) which I bought for myself but would have totally flipped out w/joy if I’d received it as a gift! I want to give it as a gift to everyone! It’s the best!

Merry Christmas to you too!

I would love a Roomba. Knowing my child, though, he would try to ride it….

I think I spent about $14 on it for myself last year around this time. It was so worth it. Also, if you have certain kinds of cable, you might be able to get it for free from OnDemand. I also see it used on Amazon for $8.49. Not bad.

I’m thinking I’m going to have to get the Shred… I wonder if I can get it from Craigslist…
