Hey Everyone, 
 
Times are tough and money slim to none for us all.  Let's close our eyes and fantasize of what our dream Holiday gift/s we would love to receive.

My eyes are closed and I am dreaming of........
World Peace
Home, love and food plenty for all kids

 
Stocking stuffer lottery ticket winner (YEAH BABY) 
Would pay off house
Save enough money for retirement
Buy a small place by the ocean

 
Come share  your dreams with us!  Your comments may appear in our December edition of ObesityHelp's Newsletter!  
 
Happy Holidays Everyone. 
 
Take care,
Kathy

So many of the things I want arent' material, but are more 'of the heart'.  (But yet, I spent my day shopping for holiday gifts!) 

I'd like a job that I love and that doesn't stress me out to the point that I feel like breaking.
I'd like to have my brother home safely from Afghanistan (and everyone else who's deployed overseas).
I'd like to be able to spend more time with my Mom without having a nasty case of Mamadrama.
I'd like to know that all of my health issues are gone and I won't have to worry about them any more.

But, if Santa asked me what material things he could bring me - and money was no object - I'd say:

* A landscaping project that will put my yard in order and make it awesome.  (Something like a Yard Crashers Job)
* More vacation time so we can spend more time at Disney (it's just never enough!)
*  A larger studio for my stamping/scrapbooking
*  Paid off homes for all my family
*  College funds for all the kids.

And well, of course, being able to travel! 

Happy Holidays folks. 
Love and hugs!

Oh, heavens...my non-material wishes:

My two stepdaughters would see that they can be valuable members of society instead of the white trash they are.  

My daughter would find the research job of her dreams with her two biology degrees.

My son would never have to pay for school again.

My DH would get his right eye back and be able to fulfill his dream of becoming a police officer.

I would wake up on Christmas morning at my perfect weight!

Non-Material:

LOL...New siding for my house.

A new top of the line laptop.

A new kitchen stove :)

Sorry i've been out of touch lately...lots of stupid drama here...

Honestly, the only thing I would ask for this year is that my boys understand the true meaning of Christmas. I just finished a program in our church where we read thru the Bible in 90 days. The simplicity of the Gospels amazes me. My prayer is for my boys to love God and love others.

I'm so glad others went before me  because what came to mind was material things

Non-Material
Joy to the WORLD (that pretty much covers all the other aspects of world wishes
PEACE for all - individuals as well as nations
Care for our planet
No hunger (tummy hunger but also head hunger as well)

Material:
All my cosmetic surgery paid for
A full-time job (where it never snows) counseling bariatric patients as part of a bariatric         teatment team
$$$$ enough to give enormously generous gifts to my family

Everyone can dream and should, what would life be without hopes & dreams? My wishes:

To get financially stable & stay stable!

Find another job

Finish my schooling

Be successful with my weight loss

Have happiness for me & my family

Be healthy & happy

Now, I also dream of some day winning the lottery and being able to open a pet rescue for strays and unwanted animals. The only frivolous things I would buy would be a big piece of land to build my small dream house (go green!) as well as my pet rescue, new furniture & vehicle as well as buy my daughter, sister & mom a nice place to live and a new vehicle. I would also donate money and continue my school. That's not asking for much now is it? LOL!


Happy Holidays everyone!
