MomtoCandJ Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 A fitbit zip and a treadmill... Probably won't get either one though. I did order my other want... An iPhone 5c 32 GB in pink, should have it Friday :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentlemommy Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Well, I MAY have just gotten it. A house. 😄 We just put an offer in on a perfect home. I will be so very sad if it doesn't go through, but I'm choosing to believe it will. If all goes as planned, we would close on the 18, the day my mom gets into town. Then we could move the week she is here to help with the kids! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeindeed Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I need new clothes and a vacation. We'll see....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie G Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Dh and I are going to a Packers game next month and our tickets are in a suite so we won't be freezing during the game. We've never been to Lambeau so it's a nice treat for us AND it takes the hassle out of trying to find a special gift for dh. The older we get, the more I enjoy experiences instead of 'things'.

happypamama Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Nothing. The things I really want can't be wrapped, unfortunately. I do want a thingy for my van. Our new-used van is great (truly!), but it only has a CD player, which doesn't work so well for us because we download audio books in mp3 form. My old van had a cassette player, so I used an adapter, which was great, but now I have to use the radio adapter, which really isn't great. So I either need a thingy to put in an mp3 cord or a cassette player. But neither of those are for me; they're for the kids, because I never play stuff for myself. And when I'm alone in a vehicle, I'm either using DH's gas efficient little car, or I use the time to call my mom. But I can't think of a single thing I really want or need. New flannel pjs is about all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyacinth Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Wicked Good Slippers from LL Bean. Or is it Land's End? Whatever. They are, in fact, wicked good, and they last much longer than the cheapo ones from Kohl's that I've been settling for the past couple of years. If Santa is real, I'd also like an essential oil diffuser (ultrasonic), a new camera lens, hiking pants that fit, pretty and cozy socks, and a bag (or seven) of mint m&ms. Oh! And a book or two by LM Montgomery (unless someone here tells me that I'll be bitterly disappointed because none of her other books match the magic that is Anne of Green Gables). I'm really not that full of the gimmes. But you asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenn- Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 The only thing I have asked for is a new high performance taekwondo uniform. If I want it though, I will have to order it myself as DH never goes to TKD with us. Odds are I will end up with some well intentioned gift that makes no sense to me.

MrsMommy Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 DH and I already bought our present to each other (a giant Lego set), which is what we really wanted, but not exactly a surprise. I'd also like a really nice cheese board, and maybe some cheese knives to go with it. My kitchen is sorely lacking in that department.

BarbecueMom Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Cardinals jersey, one of those mitt things for the cast iron skillet handle, and the Cards Against Humanity game.

ocelotmom Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 A nicer immersion blender with a whisk attachment. A sweatshirt from my college.

Stacia Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I have a huge list this year, lol. An assortment: jeans, books, banned books sticker for my car, birdseed, Bluebird house, donations to my favorite charities, white porcelain bowls to replace our old bowls in the kitchen, various specialty oils & vinegars, specialty soaps, beginner knitting lessons, taiko drumming lessons, Kleen Kanteen stainless steel storage containers, some seamstress things done, some engraving done, $ for membership to the library system in the next county, beeswax lip balm, ....

hjffkj Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 A few board games and books.other than that I don't want anything but I'm sure I'll get more.

Guest Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Realistically, nothing. We spent our savings to move across the US so that we could have our family together. I will just be glad to have my husband with us this year instead of 1500 miles away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bettyandbob Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 We are not budgeting for dh and I. I also told my two older kids they may not get anything from us. It has not been a good year. If I had a wish list I'd be considering a fitness tracker I could where in the pool. I used to want the gar in each you could where swimming. It was expensive, but you could track running, biking and swimming. Any other fitness thing to make exercise more interesting would be great too.

medawyn Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 A double stroller! Little girl is 9 days old and I'm itching to (slowly) head out on walks again. I baby wear most of the day but I'd love to not have to for workouts. And I'd love a full night of sleep and a morning that doesn't start at 5 am. I'm guessing Santa can't bring that this year.

Annie Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I think I'm getting a new stainless steel cookware set. I got my grandma's spare set (that she had already decided to replace!) of Revere ware when I went off to college. I've been using them ever since. I think it's time. I think I'm getting a flannel shirt from Duluth Trading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovinmyboys Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 My early Christmas present was going to a World Series game in Kansas City. I loved it! That is supposed to be my whole christmas. If I get something else, I would like a rash guard for swimming. I usually take the kids in the evening, but I would love one for when we go during the day. I don't like having to mess with sunscreen that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz CA Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 A book about fermenting and culturing food. Rosie suggested one that I have marked on Amazon and then there is another one by Donna Schwenk. Will have to decide on one. A convection toaster oven I love fun assortment of paper pads and pens Sleepshirt that is long (covering back) but not too long I am sure if I take the time I will be able to think of more book titles...

Jenny in Florida Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 This is going to sound more pathetic than it actually is: I would like my husband to find a job he feels optimistic about. The company he works for is doing one of their reorganizations, and his department is being dissolved. It won't take effect until the end of January, and he has a little bit of severance and some unused vacation time that will extend his salary for another few months after that. And, while what I bring in wouldn't come close to paying all of our bills, I am working. He's got a few irons in the fire, too. So, the situation isn't critical yet. But I would really like him to find something that he would find interesting and challenging and in which he felt really valued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnM Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I don't know what your issue is, but several years in a row my birthday AND Christmas lists were "to do lists" for DH to do.........hang really heavy pictures, paint a room, etc.....

DawnM Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I would love it if my kids would clean something......like the office that they use all the time and leave wrappers in. (I use the term office loosely, we keep all our desktops and such in there, DH doesn't use it for work. I would like DH to do a few things in the house, help me with some handyman stuff. As far as material things, I tend to just buy what I want/need when I want it, so Christmas for us is more about the kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Oh THANK YOU for reminding me! I need DS's curtains hung! Oh, and he has no lights as his light panel was taken down to paint.
