What's on your Christmas wish list?

What are you asking Santa for this year?

Other than the reasonably priced, low mileage Audi A6 wagon I'm searching for, I can't think of anything I need.

I'm lucky with my family - they know they already have one/two/twelve of everything they need and I'm a minimalist and don't need "stuff." We do a card exchange.

Honestly if I had solid plans and materials selected for the next phase of our remodel I'd be happy. A new transmission installed in the Volvo would be great too, and the 560SL running like it should.

I'm not wishing for anything. I've got all that I need. All funds are being diverted to both our children who are getting married next year. Having two weddings 5 months apart is stress enough.

Maybe we'll do a Kris Kringle with my extended family. Then they know to get me a gift certificate to PP.

I don't NEED anything. This year will be different as I am not working but our spending for Christmas won't change. My wife and I will buy for our kids and maybe a small gift for each other.

I really despise the whole Christmas marketing season. I guess I am getting old....

I just bought a RC Car. Of course I'll put my kids name on it & pretend to give it to my son on Xmas. He'll also get an Xbox One for the new TV upstairs.

I am stumped right now.

My wife asked me for suggestions on what to get me.

As a kid the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas felt 9 months long. Now it is feels like it is just a couple of days later.

A guy I worked for years ago had three kids. One year for Christmas all three of his kids and his wife got him socks. Nothing but socks.

He posted a rule than from that day forward no socks for presents. I told him that was better than underwear as a present.

I need underwear too!
Many years as a bachelor took its toll on my wardrobe.
Also need pretty much everything in the restoration design 911 catalogue.
Cutting begins on the Rustbucket this weekend!!

My wife and I get each other a good book. I know what she likes in books and she
knows what I like.

We take her parents out for a good Xmas brunch, or have them at our house, always with our kids and Grand kids.

We try not to buy anything expensive, stupid, or unnecessary.
