Awesome! :D

This is probably the largest haul I've ever had! I received:

$60 in cash (Money's always good, though I will probably just pay bills with it. :lol: )
2 Dress shirts (Woohoo! Nice clothes!)
2 Nerd shirts ("Don't trust Atoms they make up everything" and "You've read my shirt. That's enough social interaction for today.")
A light-up pen (my 9 year old niece's gift, who knows I love to write. Did I mention I love her to bits?)
An Old Spice Classic Gift set (I love Old Spice!)

An Xbox One, and I had to look twice to believe it. My parents got me an Xbox One, and I am just over the moon. Now when I talk about games in the gaming threads, it won't be "hey, you guys still play Super Nintendo, right?" :lol:

In fact, a picture:

I'm having three Christmases this year: one with the in-laws (on the 23rd), one with my family (on the 27th) and a gift exchange at New Year's with my friends).

So far, I've received several gifts from my best pal, who lives in Pennsylvania:
--two decorative Nordic bakeware pans
--a Jim Shore Santa
--a Dalek figure/toy

from the in-laws:
--the Adele "25" cd
--the soundtrack to the film of "Into the Woods," cd.

Also discovered that a friend bought me pajamas and some decorative shelves for my office (I opened a box from Amazon, not knowing who it was from).

I suspect that I`ll also receive a new iPhone like a NY present ;)

Already has Voyager and The Animated Series on DVD so only TOS to go...

Gusmobile? Does that mean Gus Grissom is the astronaut?
Click to expand...

The Gusmobile is what the other NASA astronauts called
the Gemini spacecraft, Gus was largely responsible for it's features as he focused on it after his Mercury flight..

http://www.airspacemag.com/flight-today/flying-the-gusmobile-218187/?no-ist

He flew the first manned Gemini mission Gemini 3 (naming his craft the "Molly Brown" as in the Unsinkable Molly Brown).was slated to fly the first Apollo mission (the ill fated Apollo 1 in which he died)..and was favored to be the first man to walk on the moon by NASA administrators.

But the mission depicted by the model was Gemini 4 with Ed White making the first US space walk.. Gus's craft stayed shut the entire flight.
 
2 new pairs of pajamas
Two boxes of chocolate
One box of Chinese pineapple cakes
A box of homemade toffee
A new shirt for work
Many gift cards to my favorite bath shop
Gift cards to Amazon
A gift card to Target
Money
New cake pans
An angel statue
Movie tickets and a movie gift card
A baking video and book
And the biggest gift for me this year was having my family around. Last year, Christmas was... awful...
