What do you REALLY want for Christmas?
If I'm being honest, I would love a whole day all to myself.
No kids, no husband, no pets. I want to sleep in. I want to lay around and read. I want to catch up on chick flicks. I want to nap. I want to have a meal that is warm and that I don't have to share.
~sigh~ I don't know how realistic that is but it's nice to dream.

Re: What do you REALLY want for Christmas?
Yeah, that sounds pretty heavenly!
I'd also like a new car and an iphone, but we can all dream, right?!
Gift-wise, I'd love a cleaning service and maybe a personal chef too. While I don't mind either activity that much, I had the pressure to get them all done every single day.
Family-wise, I'd love for just DH, DS, and I to lay on the couch, watch a movie, and maybe take a nap. DS won't slow down for more than a minute to do this yet though. Maybe some year!
No debt.. But I guess Hell freezes over first..
Realistic I would like to have 36 hours with my husband! I would love to leave Jacob at my parents friday afternoon, and then pick him up sunday morning. This weekend would include a movie at home/in the theatre, one resturant meal and one meal prepared by my hubby, NO World of Warcraft or Facebook, something fun like swimming hall or hikeing, and SLEEEEEEP - and perhaps some "husband-wife-time"..
A bigger place.
Oh, and the ability to move to a part-time job without any sacrifices.
Gift-wise - a cleaning service sounds awesome. Also 6 months of unlimited pilates classes and personal trainer to get me back in shape.

This. Just this. A LOT of this.
I would love to have a cleaning service! Even if it wasn't a regluar thing - I'd just like to have my house professionally deep cleaned 1-2x a year.
And of course - sleep and some "me" time would be amazing as well, but I pretty much want this all the time - not just during Christmas, haha.

A new house.
Unfortunately, we'd have to sell our current house first and we're not willing to take a 20% loss on it. Stupid housing market.
DH asked me this and I said I want stuff around the house DONE! All the projects that he leaves unfinished need to progress.
While little progress has been made since this wish was made, I asked him the other day what he plans on getting me, since my initial wish won't happen.
A lot of it has been his procrastination, some has been money, and as of lately its just been a lack of time...
Not to many shopping days left!
A day to myself also. I actually suggested this as a gift, but I'm sure it's been forgotten by now.
I said I would love a day alone in a hotel. I don't even want to be at home where I'm tempted to take care of things. I want to sit in a hotel bed that someone else makes up and washes and watch TV and eat ordered in food and take a long hot shower with "free" water and pee alone for an entire day with no one interupting me.
To not have to go back to work..blahhhhhhhhh. I am dreading Jan 7.
Some other slightly more realistic things, however still won't be happening are:
a haircut, a new fridge, a new toaster oven (just realized this tonight), a cleaning lady to come deep clean my house (bathroom especially), and a new car, lol.
I told DH tonight I'm going tomorrow to get mine cut because I just need a change. It's gotten so long so in going to donate it and get a cut I've never had with a new color. I can't wait!
I would also love a cleaning lady and for all these projects to be finished and a day to myself
I would just love to wake up, and my whole house would be clean and organized.
I would love to just put my kids on pause, go to Europe for a month with my H and then come back and unpause them.
Realistically, it would be nice to go get a manicure, haha!
Oooh and haircut. Yes.
They might be!! My first one was a dream... second one? Terrible eater, terrible sleeper. Reflux AND colic- didn't know that one was possible! They both thumb suck so I've got that going- no pacifier needed!
