My mother really wants to buy me something for Christmas that I will enjoy and use a lot. Not something for the house mind you, but something more personal. It has been a challenge to come up with any suggestions for her, until today. I had a bit of extra time on my hands this afternoon and started browsing the Internet, where I stumbled onto a great site (Zappos.com) that has the sweetest insulated winter boots, made by Columbia, that I’ve seen in a very long time and that I think I would look pretty darn good in. Check them out!

I’m thinking that these are right in the price range of what my mother had in mind, so I sent her an email with the link to Zappos.com. Here they offer free shipping, both ways, with a 365 Day Return Policy, as well as accepting Pay Pal, which both my mother and I use quite a bit these days especially online. That’s about the only personal item that I can think of to tell her. I mean I can always use a new blender or a vacuum cleaner, or even a new hair blow dryer, but she is insisting that it not be for the house. But that’s cool, I’ve needed and wanted a new pair of boots for a few years now.
