Cindy, I'm afraid mr. flea now thinks you are a huge dork, too. The again, he says he was traumatized by always receiving socks and underwear in his stocking as a child.
Hey, at least nobody's calling me, "mr. flea." I was just afraid you'd get in trouble with the s-i-l.
My kids get a mix of stuff in their stockings. We put in fun stuff (little games, toys, stuffed), and candy, but also toothbrushes, mini notepads, and stuff.
Foohy erasers [link] were the big begged-for school supply last year (the scented kind--which trigger my migraines, and so have to be kept out of my nose's reach). Kids of that age love school/office supplies, tape, glue, glue sticks. They're not the same as underwear, because ouch.
Kids also love to get Band-aids in their stockings.
TAR: And I'm really glad
the blonds legitimately lost, not even because of the penalty.
Stockings were all about goofy and practical. And candy.
Looks like I'm doing Xmas with the parents in NM. Can't really stretch out the trip to Alabama. Hrm. Maybe a Feb trip there.
Cool bandaids rock! I have duct tape and Batman and Hello Kitty and Peanuts.
The Container Store sent me a teasing brochure. I didn't know they also sold office supplies. Look at the kiddie scissors!
The possibilities are endless.
I can see the band-aid thing, if they were the kind with pictures.
Man, TAR --
who the hell am I supposed to root for now? I just don't like any of the remaining teams.
The
models are really the only option, I think.
I hope the bandaids are a good stocking thing, because I got some for the nieces.
Tivo scored me Harold and Kumar. Yay Tivo, and YAY NPH.
eta: ita, do you have beef bandages [link] ?
