Stockings
Because our Christmas scheduling is kind of weird this year, Denny and I decided to open our stockings this morning before work. I got some awesome stuff, including a bottle of Argentine Malbec (my current favorite type of wine), some fancy mustard, and delicious orange-flavored chocolate (I had a square for a breakfast treat). Denny is so nice and thoughtful. I gave him some pajama bottoms, magnets, a fancy de-icing windshield scraper and some candy and gum.
I think maybe he gave me better stocking stuff. Oh well; I got him some pretty cool regular gifts that he will get to open tonight when my family arrives.
And–yes, I realize this is corny–mostly I just like the idea that we spent time thinking about what would make the other happy, and we take joy in making the other smile. It was a really nice morning.
