The ClubHouse: Archive: What Do You Want From Santa For Christmas?:
Archive through November 04, 2001
Spygirl | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 02:16 pm   I thought this might be a place fun for everyone to make their "wish lists" for Christmas (serious and silly). I'm hoping for a home theater system (thanks to the excellent suggestion by Tess and Buttercup) , a date (giggle), and safety (for travel). What are you hoping Santa brings you this year? |
Kstme | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 02:33 pm   I know this sounds trite, but...there's nothing I really want for Christmas this year. We're doing the "puppy" in March and we've decided that's our present/s! Sooooo...the intangeable things I would like, would be...some shared happiness, good friends keeping in touch and good grades for "the kid" in college! Spy...GREAT TOPIC! |
Oregonfire | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 02:35 pm   A trust fund and/or A stable, enlightened government in Afghanistan and Bin Laden brought to justice (I'm selfish and lazy, but I still want world peace. Is that okay?) |
Rabbit | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 02:37 pm   Spy wants a date with Santa Claus?? |
Spygirl | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 02:39 pm   Actually, Rabbit.... |

Angelnikki | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 04:27 pm   hmmmmm what do i want?? good topic BTW. i would love a dvd player, a gold braclet, a real dining room table i want alot. i know im selfish. i want alot more but i would take up this whole thread |
Sunshinemiss | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 05:11 pm   Dear Santa: I would like to find an affordable home here in California so my little boy has a safe place to ride his bike and play outside. I would like to see my father recover from his devistating stroke of last year. I would like to see my perennially dysfunctional extended family pull it together and suck it up to make some good memories this holiday season. I would wish healing and better days for all folks affected by the 9/11 tragedy. And mostly, I would wish for the grace and strength to continue on towards my goals even if none of the above are under my tree. P.S. Santa I HAVE been a good girl this year. <great thread> |
Axman | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 06:10 pm   One of everything. In case I haven't been that good, I'll settle for a new computer. |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, October 30, 2001 - 06:47 pm   I want my brother and family to make it safely this Christmas. |
Tess | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 12:45 am   I think you've been that good, Ax. I want to be completely healthy for my daughter's sake for even just one day --Christmas Day. If I can't have that---I'd be happy with a scanner for my computer. |
Honey51 | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 05:05 am   I want to be with all my grandkids for Christmas. I want my mother's 70th birthday to be wonderful and her to continue in good health.I want to meet a few really interesting people. And...I want world peace. On a lighter note, I want to win the Powerball. I would buy a new car, a new computer and spend some time at a spa. |
Schoolmarm | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 05:16 am   Dear Santa, I need TIME for life....in other words, I want my dissertation to be finished (fat chance!). Either that or I want 27 hours in a day so I can keep up. Prince Charming would be a nice gift, as well...I'll even settle for Prince-Not-So-Charming. Peace and Joy for everyone. No more terrorist attacks. Marm PS What I really want, but will never have is a tracker-action pipe organ in my house....and the addition to put it in. <Grin> |
Alib | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 08:25 am   First I would like to see the world situation stabalize. My thoughts and prayers are with the people who have lost family as a result of the terrorist attacks, including those in Afghanistan. The one and only thing that I personally want for Christmas is the job that I interview for on November 14th. It is considerable more challenging than the position that I am now in and pays a great deal more $$. Since I have less than 5 years until I can retire (at age 55) it will also have a significant impact on my pension. The rest of the family would like the usual toys - dvd player, scanner, newer & bigger TV, etc. |
Weinermr | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 08:37 am   What I would like for Christmas is to be able to retire at age 55. |
Max | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 09:11 am   I'd like the patience and grace to live with patience and grace! I'd love to see my mother discover that the glass can be half FULL sometimes instead of perpetually half empty. It would be marvelous if my office and the PT Cruiser club could gather together enough toys to fill about 30 PT Cruisers so we can have a mass caravan to the local Children's Hospital to play Santa to the kids (we're working on this already, so a boost is all we really need). Someone to organize my house, help me get rid of stuff I don't need, clean out my garage and build a big wall of storage units in there would be wonderful. I want the courage and determination to continue losing weight (23 pounds gone since August 13th!) until I reach my goal and then to maintain my new svelt self. Biggest fantasy wish? A single, kind, funny, smart, self-sufficient, honest man who appreciates an independent, strong woman under my tree. (Bonus points to Santa if he's tall, dark, and handsome!)

Grooch | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 11:24 am   A new job. And from my husband - Cash. |
Grooch | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 11:25 am   P.S. Congrats, Max!!!!!!! Keep up the good work. |
Moondance | Wednesday, October 31, 2001 - 12:27 pm   I want my house on Garden Ave |
Alib | Thursday, November 01, 2001 - 08:21 am   Weinermr, I never planned it this way. Many years ago I took a job in the government for 6 months and here I am 31 years later planning to retire at 55. I just had nothing better to do and the pay was pretty good. I know that I am only retiring from my current career and that I will then be able to do what I want to do instead of what circumstances have forced me to do. Sometimes the best things in life happen unplanned! |
Wink | Thursday, November 01, 2001 - 08:33 am   I want Moon to have her house on Garden Ave. |
Grooch | Thursday, November 01, 2001 - 08:42 am   I want the Sqwerls to have a safe and well fed winter.

Alib | Thursday, November 01, 2001 - 12:48 pm   Grooch - Me too as long as they don't live (and breed) in my attic! |
