Since Mike died, I don't really get a lot. The kids don't have much, and my parents are gone. My best friend is about the only person I would ever ask for something if I was going to, but I like her surprises. As long as my dogs & the kids are healthy, and there's a roof over...I'm fine. But, Mike did a nice thing for me before he died - he told me to get myself a present each year for my birthday and at Christmas, as if it was from him. So, that's exactly what I do. This year, it's practical. I'm getting the stuff I need to finish my new dog pen, deck and ramp. But, no matter what I buy, it's the memory of him wanting me to have anything I ever wanted that is the best gift of all.
