Question of the Day, Friday, December 10

[Winchester]

Good morning!

Rick asked me what I wanted for Christmas this year. And really, I couldn't think of anything much. He was shocked because, usually, I have a pretty good idea of something I'd really like. The only thing I could think of was a new cover for my iPad. The cats are fine, we are fine, things are fine. We're happy. I don't need much at all. I'm just giving Rick a gift card to Cabela's so he can grab some new fishing stuff.

Is there anything you'd like to have for Christmas? Anything on your wish list?

I'd like to have a tabletop grill or griddle.

Silly little things, mostly. Here's a screenshot from my list.

I also want a new purse and wallet because mine are in desperate need of replacing, but my mom and MIL already bought those so just waiting for Christmas.

I asked for/got new smoke detectors that have the 10 year battery in them, a rack to hang on the wall to put coats on since oldest has the "real" coat rack full of his stuff, and some seasonal outdoor flags and new flag pole.

My wish list this year...I'm not one for extravagant gifts. I'm a practical person and usually my Christmas list is just things I need replacements for or little things I just wouldn't buy...but would make life just a bit easier. Sometimes the gifts are for fun but still not extravagant.

Slippers
Puzzles
Cat calendar
Icing spatula
Cooking spatulas (flippers)
Baking spatulas (wooden handle/rubber head)
(I need a bunch of replacement spatulas...I'm not just a weirdo with an obsession)
Egg slicer (wanting and egg slicer might make me a weirdo though... )
Hand mixer with the wider flat beaters not the thin wire beaters

I also asked my mom If she could make me a few more silk hair wraps/head bands

My hubby and I had the same conversation. Everything is fine. Our old Cuisinart just died. He wanted a good programmable coffee maker and I wanted an espresso machine so we bought this fancy gadget and decided that's enough of a gift for both of us.

That would work for me as well

I'm coming to your house for coffee, espresso and lattes!

Offhand I can't really think of anything other than a plane ticket to visit one of our daughters, I really miss her.

I asked DH for a new Scentsy warmer. I wanted an everyday one that lets light through the whole thing; not with holes. I won a warmer in an online giveaway years ago and it's pretty; but it has holes all around to let the light out. DH and I have both walked into the kitchen and had light right in our eyeballs. I finally decided on one and ordered it earlier this week. I'm eagerly waiting for the shipping notice.


I also wanted an Espresso machine; which I did order when I found one on sale a few weeks ago with good reviews. Most were more than I was willing to spend. Or they had bad reviews. I see it's gone back up in price a few dollars here.

I'd also like to try that Diamond Art Painting. It looks about as relaxing as doing a jigsaw and there are so many pretty looking ones out there. I went to a Christmas Market last month and there was a vendor for them. I haven't ordered one yet. A friend does them so I asked where he gets them first. We'll see if I get around to getting one.

I normally get a little money from my Dad and Aunt for Christmas so this time of year I feel more free to buy some things for myself. Wants instead of needs. But some needs too. I also keep a list on Amazon for things I like. Right now it has stuff like a Ravioli Spoon Rest, Cat Butt Magnets, Battery Operated candles and Pusheen stuff. I don't know if DH ever thinks to look there.

I have a set of that magnetic fridge poetry for cat lovers on there. I may go ahead and get it at some point because it would be fun (and secretly educational) to do with my kids.

The things that I would most like aren't sold in any stores; they are those things that time has stolen from me. Besides, at my stage of life I'm getting rid of stuff instead of acquiring more stuff. I have Michele, and I have the cats, and I have a roof over my head. What more do I really need?

 

[DreamerRose]

I don't really need much anymore, either, except a tea kettle. I haven't had a tea kettle in years, since I got a microwave. But tea is better if you can pour the hot water over it, and I like some of those instant soups, which don't do well in the microwave. I think I'll order a pretty one from Amazon soon.

I love having a kettle!

I've thought and thought...there really isn't anything I can think of.We kind of just get what we need/want as we can throughout the year,so when it comes to Christmas and birthdays,it's really tough.I am one who'd rather give than to receive anyway.
