Well I make damn sure I get plenty of Rest Relaxation and Sleep, and I dont let stuff worry me. So why not have a few material things, what good is Christmas without material items, although love is on my list as well.

Mine would be Adobe Creative Suite 3 (I'm into Photography and Digital Scrapbooking).

What I don't need is more kitchen "gadgets" My mil is famous for this. Last year I got the As Seen on TV Slicer/Dicer. The year before that, microwavable food bowls w/ sealable tops. The year before that, A S'Mores maker, which is kind of fun but we rarely use. She is a teacher, and one year she packaged up all the knick knacks she got from her students and gave them to me, LOL!

OMG! LoL... now I ?wonder? what you'll be getting this year? What's new on TV? How funny!

This reminds me of a story of a couple that are friends of ours. The husband gave his wife a deer stand for Christmas one year (she'd never hunted before or has since)! That's the strangest gift I've ever heard of (and, yes they're still married)!

Mine would be a group of consecutive days in which the winter temperatures didn't reach the upper 60's and lower 70's. It was actually 81 degrees here yesterday. And, my family wonders why I can't get in the Christmas spirit! My children watch the Christmas specials and wonder about a world where there is actually a need for heavy coats, scarves, and gloves. Well, I guess my true Christmas wish is that my husband will stop being stubborn and move us up North.

- Time and money so I can visit friends and family in Texas
- Texas Longhorns winning every game
- Dirt burglars losing every game in demoralizing, lopsided fashion
- Rest and relaxation
- A pay raise
- World peace

I usually don't ask for anything, but this year I want a GPS device so that we can start our new hobby in January. We are going to try geocaching for exercise and fun.

Other than that, I will probably get the usual couple of books. I'm a cheap date. I have so much already, and we really just concentrate on the kids.

Merry Christmas, everyone! We are under a freeze warning here tonight in San Antonio (we were in the mid-70's on Sunday!)(gotta love Texas!), so it will feel very Christmas-y in the morning!

Only thing I would like is a Better Digital Camera. Like the Canon Rebel SLR.

Other than that I want for nothing, other than for everyone to have a great Holiday Season, and for Peace to break out in Iraq, so our troops can have a break and some peace to enjoy, and return to their families.

Oh, and I could add a special product that makes perfect omelettes. Cuisinart might have something like that.

It's because I haven't made one yet.

Well, we're inviting family from Austin and Mexico city to see the Texans play this weekend and have passes to the pre-game party at the bubble.

I hope they win.

Other than that, no big plans for gifts, I think my wife and I are getting ourselves a new computer. How boring right?
