I'm buying myself Call of Duty when it comes out, but that's a pretty early Christmas present. Although my friend got 2 free tickets to see Avatar at IMAX 3D, which was something on my wish list and is now already fulfilled since he invited me.

Oh... do you have time...

I want my passive new house to become reality in all aspects.
I want all the parts of the puzzle of my wonderful life, I have been juggling with in my mind, to come together in the perfect way. That would sum it up. Wont keep you that long as it turns out

- Have a great new appartment in Mexico (hopefully before christmas)
- Spend at least 2 days exclusive with my husband in a mini holiday
- Have friends come over for Christmas
- Finally get my engagement ring and proposal (which is not likely to happen, but one can hope)
- Have another little cat (a kitten)

Wow... i´m impressed... for the materialistic person I am, that is relatively few materialistic things...

I'm getting what I want: a trip to Canada for a snowy Christmas surrounded by beautiful mountains, snowboarding, and plenty of time with loved ones.

I'm a hard person to buy material gifts for, because anything I want, I'll just go buy it for myself. So I always tell people to spend the money on creating a fun memory instead of buying an easily forgotten gift.

I want good food, a session of tabletop gaming and snow.
The most unlikely of those is the snow, even though I live in Sweden. Global warming has ruined that part of christmas for me.

I have installed a snow plugin for my desktop though, so it's gonna be snowing on my screen whenever I want.

But you do not really need money to have Christmas. For me (although we didn't spend anything) I had a great Christmas 4 years ago because I was with my husband we were happy together and sure things would be better later. It was a great Christmas.

Well you know what they say ssandra. 'Tis better to give than receive and that's what I'd love to do most, give. My craft skills are not up to par and I can hardly send jars of jam overseas. I will just have to hone up on my visualisation skills.

Yeah me too... love giving better then receiving...

So for Christmas I gave a massage, a coupon for 4x washing the dishes, and some xxx things which I will not detail here

My family was not there, only my husband so I didn't give them anything, except a very long email with lots of fotos, which I know they appreciated.

Just some thoughts.
