First, do you get to make lists for Hanukkah/Chanukkah?
I digress. H asked me what I want for Xmas? I dunno. I put some Sigma make up brushes on my list but eh. So what do you want? I'm looking for inspiration. Better yet tell me what I want!
I make wish lists for Hanukkah. At this point I just want DH's cat to recover since we just dropped $1,700 on his 13 year old crusty fur-butt. No, I'm not really bitter. Poor kitty developed pancreatitis. But damn! Nearly two-grand on that little bugger. *smh*
What was on my list before our holiday budget was blown -
- Belgian waffle maker - Brown Betty teapot - Massage and facial from my favorite spa in town - MZ Wallace "Hayley" (total pipe dream gift) - Yarn swift

I want tall black uggs (and I think my ILs are getting hem for me because they rock). Black fleece leggings A new sports bra
DH was going to get me earrings, plain silver hoops, but my car died unexpectedly coming home from Thanksgiving, so I got my first ever brand new car instead.!
Training program through a local running store for the half marathon I've been crazy enough to sign up for next year.
New coffee maker (DH doesn't drink it but knows its presence critical to his happiness); food processor; Kindle or spa gift cards; candles; Will Shortz Sudoku books
Wishful thinking: A weekend hiding at the Four Seasons BY MYSELF 2 ct diamond studs A Cartier Trinity ring DH to get his personal spending more in line with our budget
Realistically: Extra bowl and scraper paddle for my Kitchen Aid Sephora and Nordstrom gift cards A new fancy Rowenta iron Sewing classes, especially for apparel and using my scary serger A new kitchen scale
YOU GUYS totally influenced me. I asked for monthly cleaning service. Was it mesh? Whomever it was. THANK YOU for convincing me. Dh thinks it's a great idea so we consider it a joint gift for ourselves.

It wasn't me! Only yarn impulse buys can be laid at my feet. But I'm glad you're happy!

this is the first time in forever I wanted something. Besides thecleaner it's all fitness related. My mom is getting me personal training sessions.

We have to make lists (well, I suppose we don't HAVE to, but...) because we do our name exchange online for my family.
On mine:
A stainless steel roasting pan so that I can make proper gravy without scratching up the non-stick ones when whisking it. An extra mixing bowl for my kitchen aid so I can make multiple batches of cookies/bread faster. A shitton of outdoor exercise clothes, as I have none. A new watch as the face on my current one is scratched to hell. Those gloves that let you use your smartphone. A new robe that is not white. Zinc planters for my patio. A sleep sweater. New PJ pants to replace the ones my dog ate the crotch out of (ew).
Then the usual - gift cards for clothes, spa, Sephora. Books. A Tardis ornament. A Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock coffee mug.

My God, this is brilliant.
Holy shit. Fuck everything I just posted. I want this. This is BRILLIANT.
Can they do filing too? I want someone to do my filing.
My list is pretty short. I'd like a nice rice cooker. Preferably with a flower pattern on it! Some new clothes so I can cycle out the stuff that doesn't fit me right any more. I'd like my family to have a good holiday and a healthy/happy 2015.
I'm terribly boring.
Fi, on the other hand, wants a really nice RC helicopter.
She has used the service reliably for all kinds of things. I am going to hire a task rabbit to come and organize all my home paperwork that is in stacks and stacks and stacks of chaos.
I like it to be organized.
I do not like organizing paperwork myself.
boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo there are no taskrabbits in my neighborhood.

I asked for a sewing machine because I want to learn. I think I'm going to get it too because I've seen messages back and forth from my sewing friend and my H about supplies.

The naturally pretty eyeshadow palette
A bunch of books
DH wants a sewing machine too! He has aspirations to mend clothes and make curtains.

I think my H is getting it for me because he want one too...
We usually do a list because it helps. Otherwise DH wastes 50$ on a square foot of land in ireland, with my name on it.
On my list this year, a quisinart panini maker that has multiple uses. 1/4 inch sheet pan sil pat sheets replacement blade for my food processor couch slip covers, thats like our joint gift idea from the family.
