My husband has said that I am going to love my Christmas gift. I'm feeling like the odds are good that I'm going to get a stand up paddle board. I sure hope so because I have wanted one for a couple years. some years we don't do gifts, but this has been a pretty bad year for our family so we decided we'd do them this year.

I'd love to get an immersion blender and some new clothes. I'm so bored with my current wardrobe!

I would really love to get a wine aerator. And a season, or perhaps series, of one of my favourite old t.v. shows from the 60s or 70s, on DVD.
Also photography books. And an annual favourite is gift certificates to my favourite thrift store. Dh always gets me those!
I am sorry that it has been a bad year for your family and hope the exchanging of gifts gives everyone a little boost.

A medium fuchsia Gillio, which I know I'll get, but the question is: will it get here in time for Jul?

Love Gillio stuff, miominimio. My cousin has several pieces of their leather goods. Enjoy!
I want one of those electric neck and shoulder warmers.

I want one of those electric neck and shoulder warmers. I hope you get one because I love mine. It's like a warm hug!  I don't have anything in particular that I want, I'd just like it to be something that I like and is "me." |

I didn't really have anything big to ask for this year, but my husband is a talented gift-giver so I look forward to it being a surprise.

I don't have anything in particular that I want, I'd just like it to be something that I like and is "me." Ooh, what is this "warm hug"? Do you have a name for the product? My daughter with Chiari might really LOVE something like that. And I don't know what I want. Seems I think of things through the year but then forget what I want at Christmas. Last year I pinned a wishlist for myself throughout the year. That was perfect for hubby to shop from. This year I did not, and now Mom is even asking what I want, and I have no idea. Oh well. Maybe y'all will give me some ideas.  |

I am getting just what I want...because I picked it out (and I have absolutely NO problem with that!)!! I'm getting a white gold cross pendant and chain, a new thermal carafe coffee maker, socks, and a dressy winter coat. There are years that dh and I don't exchange gifts but this isn't one of them!

I'd love a silhouette, but since I didn't ask for it I doubt anyone will get it. Though there's a reason I won't ask for it.
DH simply can not take hints, like even out and out "hey I'd love __________." I practically begged for a GC (at 15% off too ) to my salon 4 years straight and he refused. I think he feels that if I've asked for it then it won't be a surprise.
His gifts aren't bad, I usually like them, but I don't understand why he even asks the question and then specifically avoids that gift. If your going to ignore me and choose something yourself, then why bother asking? It seems passive aggressive to me. It's not like there's anyone else to get me presents anymore, I have little family left.
So this year I just said surprise me. That way I'm pretty sure I will be both surprised and like my gift and won't feel lije we played a game and I lost. Lol.

I'll be alone this year for Christmas for the 1st time. I have to work on Friday, so I'll be staying in my adopted town and I don't have anyone to buy me gifts. So if there were a real Santa, he could bring me one of the following items that I'm too cheap to buy for myself!
A Fitbit
A Ninja blender thingy
Cruise control for my car
Surface Pro 3 - the one with the most GB and all the software
A car starter

I'm not getting anything (because I am the one who would need to buy it for me, and I'm just not in a position to put my wants above my family's needs and wants).....
But just for fun, my Christmas list is:
a sterling silver mother's ring from walmart, with my kids names and birthstones
A bracelet with the infinity symbol on it
A bracelet with the sideways cross on it
slippers

Since I already ordered 1000 poop bags, I think my Christmas is all set.
Mom in another state, Dad going though a split with his wife, me going through a breakup...I just want peace and happiness.
But I am getting a laptop, so that's good.

That's the oneI have and it feels so good to have warmth on my neck and shoulders. I wonder if that would help the pinched nerve in my neck/shoulder. Sounds nice! |

I'm ok, just not going to be around family this year. All of my kids are grown, no hubby, I'm about 4 hours away from my home town because of work. New job, so no vacation time saved up. I do have Christmas Eve and Christmas off, but have to be in for Friday, so I'm not going back home. All my kids have beginner jobs, and can't really afford to come here, so I'll be alone. But I just saw them all at Thanksgiving, so it's all good. Next year will be very different! Oh, and ETA: a coworker invited me to her house on Christmas for dinner. So I won't be totally alone! |

I have been asking Santa for a Bose sound system for so long that I think that I must be on the ultra naughty list.

A new job! Preferably one making close to what I earned previously or more. I was laid off and my last day was Friday. |

Me too  I'm also getting a new pair of shoes to wear to the ballet (I have season tickets so I go a number of times) ... we'll pick them out this week as I need to try them on ... not sure if I should go with the boring old black or get a cool colour like red or pink |
