Thanks. You too!!

I've learned it's about the feelings, spirit, sharing.

The material stuff goes, updates etc.

It's the memories

If you have no family go help at a soup kitchen or shelter, Holiday spirit you will find.

You are right. I do donate toys and food this timie of the year. And it does help one find the Holiday Spirit with no family...

This is so true. When I first divorced and had to "share" my son with his father over part of the holidays, I was incredibly depressed. The first year, I wallowed and it was awful. The second, and subsequent years, I went and volunteered at the mission. I'd spend 2 days baking pies (which I love to do anyway), and would load up the car with them. The first time I walked in holding 4 pies on a tray, the faces of the homeless men there just lit up. When I said I had 20 more in the car that needed carrying in, I thought they were gonna explode.

I felt so good that I forgot to feel bad.

Such a kind gesture Snowy, thanks. I wish the same for you and yours.

That my sis and her family come home for Christmas this year. I don't think that will happen (so expensive and they have already had to make several unplanned trips home this year), but one can hope!

little_ms_sunshyne · 11-14-2010, 07:58 PM

hmmmm...someone to cook for, share a glass of wine with, and cuddle with Christmas Eve

weatherboi · 11-14-2010, 08:03 PM

i want to cook the pack a delicious Christmas dinner!!!
i need a new box shredder for the many ways i like to shred foods!!!

betenoire · 11-14-2010, 08:05 PM

I want Nick to wash, fold, and put away all of my laundry. I also want him to reorganise the debacle that is more commonly known as the kitchen cupboards.

And I want a Shark Steam-Vac thingy.

The Shark Steam-Vac thingy is a good product. Just sayin'.

Kenna · 11-14-2010, 08:12 PM

Peace and good health.
That's something I haven't had much of during the past few Christmas seasons; especially with Mom's fight with cancer and my battle to juggle two households and a killer job.

And, an orange and an apple... just like Lil' Gma used to put in my stocking.

I think it'll work out well for me. The apartment that I live in has REALLY cheap laminate flooring and it always looks like shit no matter what I do with it. It's cloudy as though it's got, like, a residue on it (it had that when I moved in) and I've tried a dozen different products to clean it that were specifically for laminate and NOTHING takes away that cloudy residue look.

I have found that if I wash by hand and dry the floors as I wash them that it improves things - but that is not how I am interested in spending my time. I get the feeling that the Shark will be a step up from mopping, although probably a step down from hand-washing.

FlowerFem · 11-14-2010, 08:19 PM

I need an electric blanket. Shoes. Maybe a new purse. Shoes. A nice winter style dress maybe, and shoes to match of course. Oh yeah I need a new watch , and probably shoes to match the watch too.

Blade · 11-14-2010, 08:21 PM

Ummmm Ummmm Ummmmm a battery for my watch

Exactly. I have a lot of laminate flooring. It is perfect for it. I use regular tap water. Flooring I would guess to be mid-grade and has never looked cloudy. Let me know how you make out (seriously!).

DapperButch · 11-14-2010, 08:43 PM

Materially, I would like a new vinyl back window for my convertible and a quality oil extractor.

I'll keep you posted. It's actually on sale this week at Canadian Tire so I might go and pick it up as an early giftmas gift to myself.

So you use tap water and no product? My mother uses a tiny bit of vinegar. Do you think I should try it both ways?

And how the hell are you doing?

Yes, just tap water, but I understand that a lot of people use vinegar/water for cleaning. Before I use it I always vacuum the dust up first.

I am curious as to why there continues to be some sort of residue on your floor. Could the flooring have been ruined by a product someone used on the floor? If so, then I'm not sure it matters what you use (like changing to steam) making a difference. Doesn't Just G put floors in for a living...maybe you need to take a pic and send it to someone/bring it into a store....you said you have tried a lot of products. I mean, what could explain the cloudiness?

ETA: I am doing ok....I will PM you.
