I'm not even sure I want the angel.....lol! I'm like Heidi....I want to see a cure for cancer, MS, Hep C and Alzheimers.....hopefully some day.

I'd love a million dollars too....


I'd like to have a decent digital camera (my phone actually takes better pics than my old camera!), Photoshop, the upgrade to the top grade of Windows Vista, money to spend either online or in person at miniature shops, some small renovations around my house, some new clothes to wear to work, .....

But what I really, really want is enough money to go around to pay all the bills without me worrying about it for at least one month, for my husband to not be sick with cold/allergies/bronchitis/pneumonia/anything during the holidays,.....truthfully, for life just to be "easy".....not for long, just for maybe a week or so....then again, without the constant stress, I might just come unwound, lol!!

Can I just say for those wanting a digital camera - you can get a pretty decent camera for under $100 now. Seriously. Heck, I've seen digital cameras on keychains and for kids for around $20-25 that are better than my first 2 cameras.
Seriously, if you are just looking for something to document your life, cats (of course!), vacations, occassions, stuff like that, and don't want to print much bigger than 4x6" prints, these would do quite well.

If you want Photoshop for not-professional uses, definitely look into Photoshop Elements. It's around $100 or less, which beats the heck out of the $600 for Photoshop! It's got almost all the features of Photoshop; it's only missing the seriously advanced features that you'll never miss unless you're a power user.

Some things to think about to make Christmas Merry!

Christmas for me came in October when I got my 9mm Springfield XD subcompact handgun. (Rob's Xmas present came early too - he got a shotgun that week).

What I really want is to hear that my house will be finished in January, maybe earlier than the end of that month! I'd also like a few nights AWAY from the house we live in.

I hope to be able to save for a nice camera next year. A DSLR is my ulitmate dream, but I will probably make do with something less expensive.

I have been blessed this year even though I didn't know it at the time. My mom was cured of kidney cancer in September when they removed the kidney. I actually DO have a wonderful job (even though sometimes I want to give up!) It's not easy being a teacher. I have all the material things I will ever need in this world...so what I really want is to be able to make one of the most important decisions of my life: becoming a mother. This decision is not the easiest for me and some don't know why because alot of women just know they are meant to be mothers and they will be great at it. I use to think this, but the way I grew up has made me pause and reflect and actually think about is this the best time to have a child. To make this as simple as possible, I just want the strength to be able to be ready to have a child because I am about ready...and now I just have to convince DH

IA. If you need me, just meow..
I'm having the I can't think of anything i want issue too. I have everything I want, 6 wonderful cats a great hubby, a wonderful job( although more $$ wouldn't hurt) a great family, wonderful friends, both online and off, I mean what else is there?
I can wish for money but I seriously doubt I'll ever get it.
So I thrive on the positives in my life, great friends and family, wonderful animals, a great house to live in, a great job.
Christmas to me is watching someone open up what you bought them and seeing their eyes sparkle and knowing that they liked what you got them. It's more giving to me not getting.

I want a job in the West Wing, as a speechwriter for Obama.

But I'd be happy with a little belt-hanging CD player, so I can listen to books-on-CD from the library while I walk the greenbelt behind our house.

Y'know, either one.

Oh you would be a wonderful speech writer, Carol!
