Thanks Queen!

My mom and dad have a little dog and mom's health has been great since she got her. Of course the rotten things is spoiled beyond belief, but mom walks more, is upbeat more and has something to love now that her kids and grandkids are past the cuddling stage.

Well, if we're going to be greedy Wink ...

I'd like DH to have an organized workshop and he wants a Taurus PT911
And I 'd like my son and the rest of my family to have a happy and satisfying holiday.
I want a great dane and a big, old, victorian home (with turrets and big porches, the whole she-bang!) sitting on a minimum of 5 mostly wooded acres (mature deciduous trees please.)
I want to learn how to ride a bicycle (without falling down, please.)
I'd like the quality of health care that the president and vice president receive, more specifically, I'd like cures for what ails me.
I'd like some cabinets and counter space in my current kitchen (I literally have 3 feet not including kitchen and stove!)
I want a Taurus 1911 .45

But mainly I'd like lifelong happiness please.

i'll join in the reindeer games!

i'd like, on a global point of view, for people to get along. i'm tired of 'us and theming'...if we can't have world peace, how's about world 'get-along-ok'?

for me?

one of those cheaper new flatscreen tvs....my Wii games look like crap on my current set.

i'd like to get my Warcraft main alt to 70 (am a gamer, can you tell?) *almost* there

my car just died so i'm good there Smile

and i'd LOVE to make my ceramics/art studios more tricked out ...i have my kilns/wheel/canvases/paints/etc... but the more the merrier!!

and i'd like all my friends and family to be healthy and happy in the years to come.

merry early holidays, y'all! Very Happy

>ish jealous of cookieclaygirl<

Rotten man won't let me have a Wii, course I only want it for Zelda...

I suck at games, but insist on playing them anyway.

My son loves Warcraft but we don't do the World of Warcraft because we aren't ready to shell out the $15/month (?) for each one of us (sounds like something we'd ALL get addicted to!)


>whines< I wanta ceramic/art studio!!

It's no fair! You're cooler than me by twenty-two hundred thousand fifteen!!

they have different servers, that you could set up your own using the account he has...so if he has his alts on one, you could use his login and click "change realm" and make one on another---no extra charge! (yes, it's roughly $15 a month....one cent shy, to be exact!)

so when he's not on, someone else could be playing...currently, i have 9 alts (i know, i know--that's bad, but i'm not as bad as some people on there) on one server and 3 on another...and you can keep going...and going... and YES...it's very addictive. i really like it. alot. if i wasn't at work right now i'd be on it now. rofl...

I want to see Dick Cheney water boarded on national TV.

I have a list of people I want to be on that TV show when they hook people up to a lie detector & ask questions. Then use it for the debates.

I want to see this country returned to its condition in the year 2000.

I want the Cubs to win the world series.

I want the Steelers to make their minds as to whether they can play football.

I want that look smacked off the face of the NY Giants football coach.

I want to see Terrell Owens drop the pass that would win the Super Bowl.

I want to win the lotto. (It might help if I would buy a ticket)

I want to vote for Lebron James for President. At least he would be tall & we could beat the world in that one-on-one competition for world supremacy. (easier on us all instead of that nuclear cmpetition)

I'll throw in world peace, cutting or greenhouse gas emmissions 75%, inventing cheap, renewable energy, and a return to the strong US dollar.

OK, so as you probably already guessed...I didn't get a puppy. Sad (Maybe in the spring, says he.)

But I did get: lovely london blue topaz (my favorite!!) earings, 2 sets of earings and necklaces, 2 sets of Joe Boxer lounge wear (Joe Boxer is so cool!), binoculars, a complete lavendar and vanilla bath set, my yearly floral arrangement with the Kincaid sculpture on top, pewter Angel ornaments, a Jingle Bell singing Elmo stocking, and moolah. Oh, and the best thing...I made it home by Christmas! (It was close, though.)

My husband is so sweet, he knows that I like lots of little presents instead of one big present. Very Happy


So...what did you get?

You know something funny? The older I get, the less the poop bothers me. (At least someone goes.) It's a Red Hat thing.

See, now I have to beat up Queen's hubband. Address please. Twisted Evil

I love the London Blue, too. Ish pretty. Sometimes I'm such a chick. Confused

We made a deal that only the kid was getting presents this year to cut down on costs, of course we both lied. (Bad Hubband!)

I got a M91-30 1942 Russian rifle, a gift certificate to Warm Spring Spa and Salon (they're awesome, seriously) and an 8-8.5 mm pearl set (earrings, necklace and bracelet) so I can make believe I'm Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (honestly, I am such a girl sometimes!)
My grandpa sent me money, but says I have to actually come visit to get the rest of my gifts, same with Mommy Dearest, Dad and my sisters. I may make it down before summer. Confused
The in-laws sent me some candles, and such but the best were two Pixies in a Box and a note tin of goblins by Brian Froud. I have a thing for gargoyles and goblins-- Brian Froud is just a doll. He designed some of the muppets in the Labyrinth along with Jim Henson and published a book a few years back "The Pressed Fairy Journal" supposedly a little girl's diary where she catches fairies and presses them within the pages like flowers. >giggle< squished fairies >giggle<

chel,
Last time I shot a rifle, I blackened my left eye! Swear! That son-of-a-gun had such a kick to it!

I want a 10 mm pistol. Hubby says it packs to much of a punch for me, now. So I will settle for a wheel gun, maybe like my old Chief's Special. Hubby has a Glock and loves it! (I earned my Expert Marksman way, way back in the 70's. Highly doubt that I could get anything close to that now, even if everything was sighted in properly.)

Oooh, oooh, when we lived in West Germany and the two Germanys united a ton of East German weapons came over. WOW did they have some cool stuff! Should have bought when we could...dirt cheap!
