Default What do YOU want for Christmas??

It's that time again, time to hang the misteleto and deck the halls, put up the Christmas trees and put on the Christmas music, your favorite movies, (It's a Wonderful Life comes to mind) So what are you asking for Christmas? Who buys for you? Parents, Boy/Girlfriend? Are you planning on surprising someone with a special gift? I know it's better to give than receive, but is there something you really want? I want a new cell phone and some accesories. I have gotten Carolyn a new phone, she's getting me one,(people laugh at the one we have they are so old!) but she has no idea that I'm sneaking and getting her some nice accesories We don't usually spend a lot of money for Christmas, as we have so many to buy for, but the best gift is when all the kids and grandkids come up the weekend before! That's what makes Christmas to me!!!! What about you?

There's no monthly service charge for an iPod Touch. You just have to be in a wi-fi area to access the web features.

I received some pretty awesome gifts for my birthday so other than a new battery and skidplate for Daisy there's nothing I really want. iTunes gift cards and new snow boots would be nice though!

I'd like to get an iPod classic. Something i've been wanting since last Christmas is both CD's from ProtoKaw. ProtoKaw is former Kansas frontman Kerry Livgren's creation, along with some original pre-Kansas members. If you like progressive music, it's a must-have... at least I think so.

Larissa, I too would love to have the Galactica DVD series! I've got to catch up on my '24' collection first

I have a few things in mind...

For the car: new headliner (or at least the money to get it replaced)
For the wii: Super Mario Bros. Wii, Rock Band 2, a 2nd guitar
For me: money!!! This will go towards buying clothes I need and paying for school, the wedding, etc. I also have a guilty pleasure of mine: I want the 2 latest Backstreet Boy cds I was a diehard fan in my teenage years and still love them. I feel terrible that they released a cd a month or so ago and I still don't have their previous one.

Honestly though, I'm pretty happy. I got my engagement ring last year for Christmas <3 So getting money to help with the wedding is really on the top of the list!

I'd like some new shoes and socks. I burn through both of them quick on my current job.

Yup! I went to a concert of theirs back in 2005. 3rd one I've been to. It was still a great show. I know they are down to 4 members now. Kevin isn't touring now because he wants to be with his family. But the other 4 are still making cds and touring

My list consists of lots of things for Probie. Little things that if others don't get for me, I probably won't get for awhile simply because my unemployment check has more important uses...like keeping Probie.

Some DVD's, anything to do with Cosmetology, but highest on the list is really money and gift cards to keep afloat until I either graduate, or find a job.

Humm, If I can't unfold Electra's skidplate, then a new one for Monty, and my interior swap over finished, EGR valve swapped over.
Rodney could use a new transmission tunnel and armrest lid.

Barring any of those, tile fixed in the bathroom or the flooring fixed.

A job. I finally have a decent prospect again, a County Program Technician position at the local Farm Service Agency office. It is outside of my field, however I have a farming background, I'm good with computers and I am more than capable of any type of office work. So hopefully I can get noticed so that I at least get in there for an interview.

I seriously want nothing more right now than to get a job so I can keep my house.
