It sounds like the way you do the Yankee Swap is more fun (and involves more gambling/luck) Wen. Your holiday traditions are nice. Although I always thought it was awfully unfair to the parents to give Santa all the credit when they scrimped and saved (and shopped and wrapped) and managed to get their kids nice gifts. I think it's more amazing that the presents come from parents than from some mysterious stranger who sneaks in your house in the night! Plus strangers would say stuff to my kids when they were little like "Are you being good? Santa is WATCHING YOU!" (bwahahaha). Also a little weird this guy is keeping tabs on kids all year long (or that strangers wanted to scare my children with that idea).

Although I'm totally down with the Tooth Fairy!

(the only magical creature not attached to a religious holiday). Well, I guess leprechauns don't count.

I bought those dog boots for my last dog - and never put them on his feet. Once I got them, I just thought they were too ridiculous. Or maybe I tried them and they kept falling off (whippets have very skinny feet) - I don't remember now. And that dog didn't mind wearing clothes. I just don't know how this dog would take it, especially as he hates it if you mess with his feet (clipping his nails is a 3-person job involving a muzzle and lots of dog treats).

But I need to do something for his poor paws. They really go overboard with the rock salt and some varieties really hurt his feet. I bought the 'safe for paws' type for my walk, but that's not the kind most people get.

YAY that Lainie got an A on the test and B in the course! She is one smart cookie!

I'm glad the nerves didn't mess up her answering the questions right.
Gawd, school - I am SO glad I'm done with school. I like learning stuff, but school and tests etc is so stressful - I guess that's why people have taking test nightmares and school dreams for years afterwards!

Those 'can't remember your locker combination' dreams and the ever popular "have to take a final exam in a class you never attended" dream! LOL! School - metaphor for angst.
