How about a realy nice "stun gun" it would not hurt anyone. You could carry it with you wherever you go, stunning anyone and everything that got in your way or irritated you.
The lady in front of you at the checkout, stun her and you could go first, the car cutting you off, stun the car so it stops, the mouthy husband or kids or boss or EVERYONE.
I have a housecleaner and I have a nanny - they make my life easier
But the easiest will be when the kids move out...I love my kids to death, but I'd like my easy goer, slow moving, just want to sit in the sun and read a book on MY weekend life back.

Don't get me wrong. I love my kids, too. I adore my children. But eight years from now I will feel liberated from the ongoing slog through homework, youth sports, youth activities, birthday parties, more homework, the continual drain of money, and the assorted traumas of growing up.
Now, here's when some self-righteous blue nose will tell me to treasure every moment, blah blah blah, as if my life were one big Family Circus cartoon. But I have my own avocations, hobbies, friends, and pleasures that are impossible to pursue at this point in my life. And I'm not selfish to want those again.
My life has definitely gotten easier since my kids left home. I now have time to do more of what I want. Of course, the SO needs a lot of care and nurturing, but no where near the amount my kids needed.
I'd like them to find a cure for my chronic illness. That would make my life so much better, but if I can't have that, winning the lottery sounds pretty good.
The ability to read people's minds, at will, so you can turn it on and off. I guess that would be a superpower, but so useful when negotiating your next raise.
Right now, I would just love to sell my house if Fla. that has been sitting on the market for over a year. We have dropped the price again, and again, and again. Now we have a whole slew of hurricanes just piling up. Man, I just need one good buyer and all will be right in my world.
Oh, and I would love my X husband to pay his back child support and then drop off the face of the earth forever.
If the people that lived below me would tell the little kid to stop slamming the front door EVERY SINGLE TIME she walks in and out. That would really make me a lot happier.
Now for the unrealistic things:
win the lotto
get back all the money my aunt took that my grandmother left me
