best mother\'s day gift ideas image
Marissa
I'm spending Christmas alone this year. My Dad passed away and mother disowned me some time ago. My sister is spending it with her boyfriend's parents. Flatmate is going to her parents place. I'm thinking spending it naked on the couch with a tub of ice-cream in front of a Family Guy/Simpsons/Futurama marathon :D Any other ideas?
(Family isn't available since they sided with my mother. :\ Their loss. And I'm just under 100lb so nothing too fattening... like MacDonald's. Blarg)
n'aww Typo that's so sweet! Thanks to all who suggested I go work at a shelter - had completely forgotten that option ^^
Note: recently moved states, so friends are $400 and a plane ticket away. Not that I wouldn't go see them - I'm just a cheap skate going through college lol
And it's my couch - too bad so sad. It's not like I haven't done worse on it :D
Answer
One of the greatest Christmas" I've ever had I spent a couple of day just before Christmas delivering presents for Toys for Tots.
You will find that doing something for others will make the holiday much more enjoyable. Currently my wife and I both work for a hospital. I actually work in pediatrics. I try to go by the hospital for an hour or two on many holidays if I am not working and am in town. I try to do this for Easter, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. We always have fun, generally I spend a few dollars on gifts, and it is always enjoyed by all.
This year we did what we called reverse "trick or treating." We out candy bowls in each room and had different staff members come by during the afternoon with a bag of candy and trick or treat each room. Only in our case the trick or treaters were adult staff members who left candy! We dressed up in some manner, even if it was just a funny had (I have quite a few of these) and painted faces and then took pictures (with the parents permission) which we printed out on the spot and give to the kids.This was the most elaborate event yet and the most expensive. We spend nearly $100 on 8 kids. (All of which was paid for by the nurses.)
We had a blast!
