this will sound so corny, but it is my son's algebra test that he brought home the day before vacation. A+ 100% Perfect.
i hung it on the refrigerator like i did when he was little.
BTW -- this guy had an F in October in Alegbra. the teacher GAVE him a C on his report card cuz he apparently tried so hard and did all the work--he just did it all wrong. he was soooo lost and couldn't tell anyone.
his dad has been tutoring him. A friggin Plus. my greatest gift

 BIG WOO HOO and two bananas for Lil' RR!!! Good for him, that rocks!
Hmm...best present? A series of ethnic cookbooks, including an Indian, an Asian, a Cookie, and a Slow-Cooker, Clay Pot, Stew kind of recipe book. I think I am going back to Borders to get some more of them!!!
Although the food processor ranks a close second (see a theme here?)

Really, having a complete family for Christmas. Even though JJ and Abby struggled with their Christmas tree allergies it was great.
Oh and I got Band of Brothers on DVD and a DVD/VCR for our bedroom to watch it since our DVD player is tied up currently with kids stuff.

But you haven't gotten your little white basket with flowers from me yet. Hold off on making your final decision.

Cheryl, she requested a little white basket for her bike. I picked one up for her since it was only half price. for reals

I didn't get one "knock 'em dead" gift. Instead I got a lot of really good gifts. 5 pair of pants, 2-3 shirts, 3 sweaters, 2 colognes, clean underwear (evidently mrs keltic read about that over at Amazon.com) I got 2 watches (I won't have to wear the same one more than once a week now) and I even got a key chain with a watch on it. No rings this time (another weakness. I have a lot of silver rings) and unbelieveably, only 1 tie.

I got a few hundred dollars worth of running stuff, so I am set for 2003!
Road ID tag
"Almost" tights
Long sleeve Asics shirt
Red singlet w/ matching black/red/white shorts (all Coolmax, of course)
New Balance gloves
Polartec headband
and....
The last 2 pairs of New Balance 854s in my city (at least in my size)
I also got this. Make of it what you may. I can say I have already tried a few, and it is pretty difficult to follow. I think Darrin's teaching method sucks. Regardless, I'll be doing the Pop and Lock by summer.
