All I Want For Christmas 2010

So as the title says what do you dream of for Christmas this year?

It's a little over 2mths away and i guess it's never too early to start thinking about ourselves for once.

Me:
* Clothes - in desperate need of new clothes
* Money - i wouldn't mind getting myself a hair cut and maybe a manicure
* House Items - i've lived out of home since u was 18 and things are finally starting to match but i wouldn't mind getting a few little bits n pieces to make it more of a 'home'
* A tatts win, to pay off DP's tax debt and maybe get ahead a little.

So what about you?

I would love to get absolutely NOTHING from BIL and his wife LOL. She is the queen of ****ty Christmas presents so I'd be more than happy if they had nothing under the tree for me this year :rofl:

Other than that, I'd like a new pair of sunglasses and a wallet.

Trillian my dear that is GOLD! :rofl:
Actually i would like MIL to buy 1 present and 1 present only, normally she gets us something and then little knick knacks which really don't get used... ocne she bought DP a chocolate fountain... we still haven't opened it :rofl:

I like the sound of the tatts win to get us out of a hole.

I'd really like a school hours job for dh that would be the next best Christmas present.

I would like:

- to not have to spend any time with FIL and MIL (that sounds horrible, but it's not - they are)

- a spotlessly clean house.

ZF, you've got no idea! Last year was their year to spend with her family, so they left their gifts for us all at the IL's and me, SIL and MIL all got terrible gifts. SIL and I got a Polo Ralph Loren shirt - both were two sizes too small, mine was PASTEL and her's was green and looked like a mans shirt. MIL got this tacky oversized white patent leather bag with big silver buckles all over it and it was so not MIL's style. So we all laughed our heads off at the gifts and put them aside, but this year they are having Christmas with us, so if we got another bad gift from her we'd have to pretend how happy we are :rofl: So I would rather just avoid the whole situation.

A sticky :bfp:
To never have to hear about/from my in-laws again.
Win tatts
For Christmas day to go smoothly! Don't want to spend Christmas eve in the ER again!

But in reality I want a new camera, which DH and I bought for ourselves from the kids that we may or may not have opened early after a TTC meltdown :shhh: :rofl:

Maybe some new dressier flats to replace my heels I can't wear since breaking my foot :wall:

Dh home from afghanistan or at least good skype connection without it dropping out every 2 mins

- A holiday not on chrissy day but soon would be good :D
- i too am in deperate need of clothes
- swimmers
- a clean house
a nice cooked lunch

To be honest I dont know. Its just me and DF this year along with my mum, nan. sis and 3.5yr old nephew.
I would be happy with nothing but some things for baby and something small for me like a new purse or something.

if i could have anything i would like a new car but thats not happening.

A new bathroom!!!
Seriously..the main bathroom in our house is cactus!!! We had flooding here beginning of the year and the water poored down the internal wall.
the shower glass is cracked, its blue and brown (dont ask) the the tiles are cracked...I HATE MY BATHROOM!!!

Maybe J man will get the hint when I tear down the shower screen soon :D

A cat. Dp has never had pets and just doesn't get the point or see how much they have to contribute to a family unit. Also, he's allergic so the ones least likely to affect him are pricey. Add to that the fact that no matter how hard I try the place is never completely clean and he thinks a feline companion would only add to that and I really have my work cut out for me ever making it happen.
I'm an optimist, though (not to mention persistent :D)

- A new DSLR. I currently have a Nikon DSLR - which I love but I have been eyeing off a new lens for it and it is $$$ (because it a professional lens) but I have found a professional DSLR camera package that comes with that lens included for not too much more than the lens on its own. I keep drooling every time I see it in the camera shop. DH and I both take photos now though so it would be great if we could each have a camera when we go places because we end up fighting over the one we have.

That is all. Not too much to ask, is it :)

I am super excited to have Christmas this year because we don't have to go anywhere until dinner time and it is our second Christmas with DD, which means our FIRST CHRISTMAS BRACE FREE!!!! So she can run around, sit at the table with us and have Christmas dinner! WHOOP!!!!!!

But, if Santa's feeling generous.....there's two books that I'd like :)

The CDrom version of the Macquarie dictionary and thesaurus...to go on my new pink laptop! And a box of Haighs chocolates, the fancy ones.

I told DH yesterday I want a new vacuum cleaner...he laughed :( and said no because its not a present just for me :wall: but thats what I want!!!!

I want DP to get a job in Melbourne so we can move in the new year.
Would love a kitchenaid mixer (yeah right but a girl can dream)
To cook a delicious christmas lunch for the family

I posted in a thread similar to this last year, asking for a BFP. I have that now, so I just want bubs to be healthy :)

-For my mum to find her way out of the sad place she's in right now.
-For my brother to get his life together, I want him to be happy.
-For DF to get into his course :)

Oooo! Christmas pressies.
* bfp would be lovely
* purple kitchen aid
* a big sparklingly diamond ring
* the hall way to be finished - DP started that last holidays.

The only likely present would be the painting.

All i want for Christmas:
- I want the poppet to have a great day
- I want to feel safe and content and not stressed
- I want to my friends to be happy (for some reason, we've all had a pretty damn crummy year!)

If I were to get materialistic, ummmmm - a new bra - i've been putting it off thinking DD will wean soon and it would be a waste getting a new mat bra, but given she doesn't appear to be weaning anytime soon, i think i might have to get new bra!

I'd like some of the ILs to buy pressies for my children.

I can't think of anything really for me... I always ask for chocolates so that's a given :lol:

First a BFP...
Then I'd like a new door knob for my front door! Someone broke it months ago and the one I like is very pricey!

I want stuff to help with my leadlighting (even though it's not going anywhere right now) and I'd like Gossip Girl season 3 and alot of Disney DVDs (for me and for DS)

Happy relationship and a :bfp: :)

I want everything that's been going on here to be over by Christmas. A new job would also be nice.

I'd really love a new pair of sunnies and a rug for the loungeroom.

I want to have a beautiful time with my Opa who is spending his first Christmas without Oma with us.

On the present front: A HAIRCUT. It's been over 2 years.... :hide:

sleep and big eff off bucket of fried chicken. and a mango that doesn't cost me $3!!!

I can't wait for Christmas!! :D
Hmm..
I want to give somebody the extra 20kg I'm still carrying! :D
BUT I'd love just a happy day, with the whole family! That includes my sisters, one of which still has not met my dd because she is too busy 'livin it up' in London, and the other one wants to move to Japan and already lives 2hrs away so I never see her anyway :(
Oh and I'd love a maid, a new computer, a holiday and a nice sheet set!

Just saw an ad for beauty and the beast.. Now I want THAT!

I want a quick and easy labour.

I want my baby to choose to join us before Christmas day. For all these reason, so we can celebrate christmas with all 3 kids, also so I'm not in pain, also so I can eat what I want, and so I don't have to worry about going into labour on christmas day. I hope bubba is listening :).

I would also like baileys chocolate. And some DVDs to watch while breastfeeding.

Is that too much to ask for :redface:.

oh i must add i would LUUUUUUURVE tickets to oprah....yeah right!!!

For my family and loved ones to make the effort to come and spend Christmas here in Perth with us for a change :(

I know it is a big effort, but seriously, we have spent thousands in the last 3 years going back and forward several times a yeart to Melbourne for various things and would love it if they could make the effort to come here for something important for a change. (My sister has been here twice this year, for a weekend each time, so that is good, but my brother hasn't EVER come to perth in the 5 years I have been here... To see them here for Christmas, or even Charlotte's birthday in November would be ace.)

My hubby home for Chrissy Day rather than working like he usually does
My mumma to not stress out, and cry on Christmas Day

and the BFP that alot of others are hoping for :)

Oh and to get really greedy... a professional Canon Camera ;)

Ohhhhhh if you get a new one feel free to gift the old one on to me :rofl:

I would like a normal, happy Christmas.. No stress over presents, no stress over who's house.. No stress of running around.. No stress of food..

I want a Christmas by the pool or beach where everyone is drinking, kids playing and just laughter..

That what it use to be like with my family... Oh well you get married and then you have in laws who think you owe them........

But DH and I have talked and since I really really want it and its something that I am vain about... Im getting my teeth whitened.. (x-smoker and they have been Yellow since I was 15!!!) I have tried everything to get them white but they are still a yellow shade and I want them bright white!! lol
