Ultimate Christmas Gift

[Deleted]

It's Christmas morning and you are opening the gift DP gave you, it's the gift you wanted the most this year, what is it?



I know BFP's would be great but let's talk tangible gifts.

A vacation sans kids. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids to pieces - but a week adult only vacation would be much loved, appreciated, and needed in our household.

Two tickets to Ireland (and lots of dramamine for the flight). I would love for the kids to go with us but don't think it would be quite the experience I imagine with them there, so two tickets only.

Are we talking sans budget? I'd love an ipad, but I'd be mad if S got one because we shouldn't spend money on luxuries like that right now. But if it were in an ideal world and money was no object, I'd be thrilled. Along those lines, a winning lottery ticket would be nice...

In the "free" category, a coupon book for 4-hour blocks of guilt-free kid-free time (as in, she has the kids and I don't have to feel guilty about it) would send me over the moon. We so desperately need to get moved out of our old house and get it on the rental market. I'd use all the free time to make that happen and get that weight off my shoulders.

I would open a note that says she doesn't want to see me so sad anymore, that I can finally TTC.. Attached would be an appointment card from the RE and maybe a blank check with "Baby " written on the memo line.

Want a renter? K might be heading that way sooner than expected.

I don't know, maybe tickets to the ballet. Or a trip to visit one of my friends. Or just a gift certificate to the salon to get my nails done.

A weekend away to Vegas where I could eat, should and get pampered as much as I want ALONE!

On the tangible side . . . how about an Audi Q5 (the Audi compact SUV)? I LOVE our Honda Fit, but it would be nice to be able to fit more than just the four of us in the car. We have to drive separately even when just my mom joins us. (Purchased before a twin pregnancy was in the picture

A Toyota Prius. Julie drives one now and I'm in LOVE with it. I adore my Jeep Patriot, but I hate the gas mileage and how "bulky" it is sometimes. I'll compromise with a SUV hybrid. :-P If I can't get a new car, I'll take cash. Splitting up has left me broke.

A nanny. I can't take three year old behavior much longer.

Oh,Cymru I feel your pain! Hang in there.
