		<description>I am  getting the kids and myself a Wii as a family gift.  We are soooo behind the times!  Must be the last family on the planet to get one of these things.  Besides, I want to get the workout stuff that goes with it for myself.</description>

		<description>O.K., I&#039;ll bite...

Other than our baby which won&#039;t be happening yet with a 6/6/06 LId....  I&#039;d like a shed to put all the bikes and yard equipment in so I can get the car in the garage without worring that someone might ride their bike along side the car and scratch it.  I&#039;d also like a nice video camera - one of the small ones so I can start practicing making dvd&#039;s for when we go to China.  Then, I&#039;d also like a new sweat suit made by Colorado Trading Company that is made from a microfiber chenelle - so soft.  Unfortunately, I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll get any of that because they are all quite pricy!!!  Oh, well, one can still have a list right?

		<description>We&#039;ve had plenty of lean Christmas years. Years where we used our imagination and in some cases made gifts for people instead of buying them something. Years that RK and I bought a necessity and called it a gift for each other (like the year the hot water heater went out and we called it a joint Christmas gift to each other). Years while we were waiting for TT when we bought gifts for GG but RK and I didn&#039;t buy anything for each other. While we were putting everything away for adoption expenses we only had a little to spend, and we wanted to spend it all on GlitterGirl. 

I think those years make me appreciate it all the more when we can splurge a bit for Christmas gifts. We still aren&#039;t going to have the kind of Christmas that some people have, but that&#039;s okay. I&#039;m more than happy with what we&#039;re going to be able to do.

If you&#039;re in a lean year then focus on what you do have, and make the best of it. If you aren&#039;t in a lean year then make sure you do something to help out those who are.</description>

		<description>I love those Keurig coffee makers!!  I wish I had one too, but DH turned his nose up at the price tag.  I ended up with the Black &amp; Decker Brew N&#039; Go which does the job.</description>

		<description>We used one of those washer/dryer machines in Turkey while visiting a friend and I have to say I hope they have imporved in the past few years.  They do not dry clothes very well.  We would run it for hours then still have to hang clothes outside to dry!  

I want another puppy.  A Bichonopoo.  A Bichone poodle mix.  We have a one year old mini poodle already and I need to convince my DH we need a matching set!</description>

		<description>You know, I was just thinking about this the other day.
Although neither my husband nor myself actually NEED anything, there were a few &quot;wants&quot; tossed around for fun.

I was scrubbing my heels, and thought, a pedicure would sure make me smile right now.   
I also would love some new fluffy towels.
I also like getting my favourite perfume, as well as face creams etc, since I hate spending the money on them myself.

I would love to have our bathrooms gutted and redone, but, reality says they work just fine the way there are, even though they are ugly as sin.
