ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS?

[pepperj]

Yes folks it's coming soon.

What is on your wish list?
It can be anything or everything.

Query from the Mrs.

"What do want for Christmas-for a guy that has everything?"

A magnifying light for my finds table.

"Good luck-as I'm not shopping for that"

Probably get the 6 pack of Stanfield underwear again.🤣

So let's hear what a Santa wish list/item would be.

Post once or often.

My forum wish is a TOTAL BAN ON:
TAMU discount coupon posts. 😁

I never know how to answer that question. My biggest wants tend to be things that can't be easily obtained. More time. Better health for those I know. A way to stop the world from going crazy. That sort of thing.

Health and happiness, without those nothing else matters.

My family doesn’t celebrate Christmas so these are the kind of things I wish for too.

My brother arrives a couple of days before Christmas so it will just be the two of us in our new home this year, but I’m going to carry on my family’s tradition of cooking several meals and giving them out to homeless people. We also carry a prepaid cell phone and let them use it to call their families if they want to.

What a time to ask for better health-during the holiday season.
I hear you on the world-world peace was a thing-it might happen again.

If there is cookies around I should be alright.

Hope the best and accept the rest.
I guess the 2 go hand in hand in many ways.

Simple wishes are so fulfilling.

It's been on my mind.
Maybe a batch of shortbread as I do up.

The kids and grandkids assemble at our house each year. We have lunch, open presents and play games.
I treasure those moments, because, as we have learned, they can be very fleeting. Each time we are all together is precious.
As for an extemporaneous wish list:
No crime, no abused children, no cancer, peace and love. My fingers aren’t crossed, nor has my breath been held. 🎄 ✌️

To be with a family member is a loving wish.
(During the holiday season it can be a tad testy with many families)
Helping the less fortunate is showing heartfelt kindness.

World Peace is my first choice but My Christmas gift isn’t so altruistic.
It’s a Hitch Step that makes it easier to get into the truck bed.
Merry Christmas everyone!

 

[Chilli]

We don't celebrate it or anything else along those lines, just birthdays and wedding anniversaries. Oh, and Australia day. 👍
Our motto is be kind to others all year round.

I had a hitch step on the Tundra for yrs-Till a frozen snow bank snapped it off.
Great item to ease the getting up and down out of the bed.

It's ok not to celebrate something.
Being kind to others is a good thing to live by all year round.

Me; Christmas eve 1968: Just home from Nam. Alone in cold single wide, bottle of Jack, bologna sandwich. Me; Christmas eve 2023: Warm house, smell of good food, 14 Grands & Greats, lots of noise. It only takes one (I Love You Gpa) to make it all complete!

On a personal note I truly want for nothing. If I really want something I'm blessed to be able to just go buy it.

I truly enjoy just seeing and hearing about the toy boxes I donate each year being filled and going out to children and families who need help. 23 toy boxes went out this year. This is the 9th year I have built them. Well over 200 have now gone out.

I can't think of a single thing more important for myself then seeing all the folks come together, fill the toy boxes and deliver them to the children. I'll probably never think of anything more important to me.

For my 401k to double so I can retire early and spend my days prospecting instead of working towards the ceo's next yacht. =)

I hear that. One of our past CEOs had his own helicopter and license to pilot it. I guess he was above everyone else in more ways than one.

The value one can put on materialistic item is one side.
The value in your large loving family is priceless.
