Mine was fire starter wood (like kindling with burning agent added) and matches from ex mother in law.

Divorce Papers from ex-husband! My children and I had driven down to spend the holidays with my family (over 250 miles away) and my husband was to join us in a couple of days. What I got when we arrived, was a very large brown envelope that had been mailed to my parents address to my attention. In it were divorce papers from my husband. The a**h**e didn't even have the nerve to give them to me in person, but had to mail them to me. What an a**! Try explaining to your children that their daddy was not coming to have Christmas with them and that he, instead, wants a divorce from their mommy for Christmas! That was 6 years ago and I couldn't be happier today. My children live with me and we have a wonderful life. Just the 3 of us - no one else is in my life right now and I prefer it that way. I get to devote all my time and attention to my children. I am truly the lucky one! The ex now lives across the US and he pretty much has nothing to do with his own children. How's that for a father?

LOL, well, I don't know if this is quite as bad as fire starter wood, but, one November my mother-in-law and sister-in-law and I were talking about shampoos, and I told her this one brand that I was really allergic to- that it made my whole head itchy and dry and my ears got these tiny blistery things on them. Guess what I got for Christmas?!?!? A freaking gift set of the stuff. She's a dear, that one. A real keeper...

My parents thought it was funny to give me a bag of coal everybody laughed but I cried. One Christmas they gave me little rubber worms (fishing worms) because I ate like a bird. One Christmas they gave me a brick (never found out the reason for that). My parents are still alive and they told me it was only a joke, but they never played it on my brother. Those times were very hurtful for me.

Okay. My father usually gets me 2 movies--one good, one not so good (he finds them in the $5 bin at Walmarts). Some of them are downright crappy. But right now, I'd have to say it's "Say It Isn't So". A movie that I've seen played, replayed, and overplayed on Comedy Central. I'm not averse to dirty comedies. I like "American Pie". But "Say It Isn't So" just bores me.
But I do know what it's like to get ugly sweaters--ones "made with love". And I have to stomach it.

My boyfriend's stupid sister (now my sisiter-in-law) gave me an ostrich puppet. It was hot pink and on those strings that make it walk. I was 24 years old and she was 22. She said she thought it was cute. What did I do with it? Amvets box on the way home from the family dinner.

I got a portable handy stitch. (a carry in your purse mini sewing machine.) I don't even sew. The trash can got it for Christmas instead. A chia pet would have been awesome! compared to that. It was from my husband's step sister.

easy, about two years ago a friend of mine gave me a spanish version of what was supposed to have been the hottest holiday movie put out but as far as I could tell from the previews, it was exceedingly stupid, I can't understand spanish and I hated the movie anyway, to make matters worse I coudn't even take it back to Wal-Mart which is the chain I am sure that she bought it from. YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
