Wish list

As I sit here thinking about the upcoming holiday season, reviewing my kids very short but pricey wish lists, I am reminded that it has been quite a while since I made a wish list of my own. I remember around this time of year as a child I would begin to draft my first versions of a wish list for Santa. That list would change several times before the final draft was written, for that I am sorry for my parents. I know how it is to think you have found something on that wish list only for it to be dropped from the list shortly there after.

With that said I began to think about what I would put on a Christmas list. Then I came to the conclusion that I would have to make a dream wish list and then come back to reality and make a real one. So here it goes.

My Dream Christmas List:
1. A Canon digital SLR Camera
2. A 12x12 Epson printer
3. A $1000 dollar shopping spree at Archivers or at the Mall for clothes
4. A new Volvo XC90
5. A new house with a scrapbook and school room.
6. A miniature Yorkie puppy, and an American Bulldog puppy

And now back to reality.
My real list:
1. A new set of pots and pans, mine are in terrible shape
2. An electric griddle to make my family yummy pancakes.
3. A waffle maker
4. Adobe Photoshop 7
5. New house shoes

There might be more things I would add to either list, but I really had to think hard to come up with both lists. It's just not something I think about that often. I have to say it felt good to think about even if it is just for fun.
