I want a Shooner eagle redware plate. An American eagle redware plate from The Work Shops of David T. Smith. Some tin items for my home. Tim Holtz stamps. To be really honest I wish we had a vaccine so we could spend Christmas with family. The other things are trivial.

I already told DH that if he wanted to get me something, I’d like an Apple Watch. Doesn’t even have to be the newest fanciest one. I was thinking it might be interesting to get a Fitbit to monitor how much I toss and turn at night, and then realized if I’m going to spend that much I might as well spend a little more and get something a more functional. I also want a small wireless projector like a Pico for decorating cookies, but not a Pico because everyone who has one says they suck. He would never buy me something like that though because he would be afraid he’d buy the wrong thing. Another thing I would buy for myself because DH never would is the new 123 Sesame Street LEGO set, except I still haven’t built the even more expensive Disney Train and Station set I bought myself last year, LOL. Something more reasonable is the Cookie Monster Tervis Tumbler I saw on Amazon but he already told me “I’m not spending $20 on a cup.” Well all righty then. I have that cup and love it. I replaced all my cups with Tervis because I tend to drop cups a lot and as long as the lid is closed and I pick it up quick, they usually don't spill at all. Bed, Bath, and Beyond take coupons on them. Most of mine were either gifts or came from Goodwill for $1 or $2.

I always like seeing what's on peas Christmas lists too! My husband recently asked if my amazon wish list was some sort of marriage test because he thought almost everything there was not romantic enough for a husband to buy a wife. artificial eucalyptus wreath cafe curtains washable runner rug over the door hanging shower organizer outdoor solar powered path lights melamine 10 piece bowl set semi sheer white curtains merino wool socks pandora wishbone ring tervis fiesta rose tumblers t-bar bracelet display stand/organizer So yah. I guess I can see why he was worried! Almost everything is for the house. But it's all stuff I would like to have so I will be happy with whatever he wraps up for me under the tree. And if he should choose to go off-list, that's cool too! (I do know he already got me the Star Wars The Child charm for my pandora bracelet. We are both fans of "baby yoda"!)

I bought myself new UGG slippers. They are expensive, but my current pair lasted forever. I wear Ugg slippers year round. I usually get 18 months out of them because they are always on my feet! I got new ones for after my new surgery. Great gift! I don’t have a list. I told DH to surprise me!

Never thought this would happen to me but I am now at the age where all I want into be with family and enjoy that time with them.
Gifts are certainly not important.

With DH and my Dad gone, I don't have anyone who buys me gifts. My sister will knit me something. I'm getting work done on my house at some point, that will have to be my gift to myself.

I bought the Cookie Monster Tervis cup for DS There's also a pre-order out there for a Christmas cookie one

DS and I are getting the Lego Sesame Street, but we might not be able to wait until Christmas! And JoP is putting enabling pressure on me to get a Cricut Maker. 😄 That would need to be a gift to myself though, as my 2 kids are the only ones who buy me presents, and it’s kind of out of their price range.

Yotam Ottolenghi's Flavor is at the top of my list. Le Creuset Braiser in Caribbean - sadly the size & color I want is sold out everywhere and I told them not to substitute. Other exciting things like slipper plants and an ocotillo for the front yard, yoga blocks and strap, new light fixtures for the entry and dining room.

I've asked Santa for a Fire 7 and some new pillows. I may also ask him for an Olfa rotary cutter to help with my sewing projects, since that's the new hobby I'm trying to learn.... but that one I may pick up myself so that I have it sooner!

I bought two, more than ten years ago at a Target and I still use them. I actually bought another one as I was running out in between washing them in the dishwasher. I have one that we got in a bag of swag at a Christmas party from one of DH’s vendors last Christmas. I snagged it and I love it! I like my water ice cold and love that it doesn’t get sweaty on the outside, so I wanted one for the lake cabin too. I found the Cookie Monster one around Prime Day (wasn’t on sale) so I just showed it to him and said, “You can get me this for Christmas!” And he looked at me like: Yeah, NO. What a funsucker he can be!

I just bought myself a set of leg massagers. They're SCDs (sequential compression devices, the leg sleeves that pump up and down with air to help your circulation like they put on you in the OR) but supposedly with a Shiatsu function as well. FB targeted advertising! I've been wanting home SCDs for years because my legs often ache when I get home from work. This should help. I felt comfortable buying because you can use PayPal. Today only! If you order in the next hour! Only $129! (Just shut up and take my money, Slabway, and I'm going to ignore that suspiciously American-sounding yet not quite right Chinese company name) DH bought one of their massage chairs for himself last Christmas and we haven’t been disappointed. Seems to be a reputable company. I hope you have the same good luck with your sleeves.

Well, my husband ordered me the Disney LEGO castle for Annimasday (anniversary, Christmas, birthday) so If the Disney Store gets their act together that is what I am getting and I am incredibly excited. I have wanted it since it came out, but it is a lot of money for us to spend on one gift. Prior to finding out about that I was hoping for the Sesame Street LEGO set. You will LOVE that set! I think it took DD and me (mostly me) about two weeks to build it, working on it on and off. It’s super detailed and so fun. I have since been picking up the smaller princess sets as I find them cheap so I can put the right one in each of their settings.

I do more drop cookies, cookie cakes and other stuff so it isn’t something I’d use every day which makes it harder to justify spending the money on it.

Disney store sent a 40.00 monorail toy set instead of the castle and they won’t send the castle until they get the other item back and now their site says it is out. I can’t wait to put it together, have you seen how people decorate it for Christmas? So cute! Do you get the princess book sets? I love those and I am not even much of a princess person. LEGO is just the best!

LEGO is just the best! I love those storybook sets too but the mini figures are different than the ones in the regular sets. I haven’t seen the castle decorated for Christmas but I’ll definitely have to Google that! I bet it’s awesome. I really want to build my train but at the moment I don’t have anywhere I can leave it while I’m building it. A third of my work table is covered in 3D printer parts another third is covered with sewing projects and the last third is a huge pile of scrapping stuff that I haven’t looked at in two years, ugh. It’s been like that all year.

A new back door and the molding around it fixed. Things I want/need are things that are not possible: a cure for my dh's ALS, a full 8 hours sleep, my right knee replacement. I am so sorry to hear of this difficult time in your life. My prayers will be with you for moments of laughter and joy during the holidays. I am hoping to receive the "Humans of New York" book that has recently been published. My mom has already bought me the Estee Lauder red train case gift set, as well as a weighted blanket, both of which will be under the tree on Christmas day. I would really be happy with gifts of time from my DH and DD to declutter things now that DD is a senior and headed off to college next year. She's really good at decluttering, it's just a matter of finding the time. DH, on the other hand, not so much.

I’m trying to read it slowly and enjoy every story:)
