I've started keeping a list so that when asked, I'll have some ideas. I tend to forget. Also, after Christmas, if I don't get some of the items, I treat myself.

  • Jenga game
  • Williams-Sonoma Open Kitchen Lemon Press
  • Low-light plants: snake plants (variety)
  • Wusthof paring knife (longer than the one I already have)

I pretty much get what I want as I do my own gifts and have nobody to blame other than me if I don't like them!

I do get a surprise from DS that he shops for himself.....

Im hoping for something vanilla for the shower or a vanilla candle.....
But I am pretty happy with anything that DS picks for me....

This thread is really making me think!
-any books about the Civil War
-Starbucks gift card-recently fell in love with their hot chocolate
-warm socks
-fancy mustard
-any kind of Christmas ornament or decoration

Will have to keep pondering this!

My Gifts 2015

Well, this is a fun idea. I have never given out my "idea" list. No one has ever asked. LOL I just get surprised ... sometimes really surprised like "what was DH thinking" LOL

luludou - Your list sounds cool. I love our salt lamp and oil diffuser. Should I ask about the "adult coloring book"?

MrsSoup - Cool bracelets

DahliaDoll - Nice list. I love Jenga!

jollykelly - LOL ... snow

tanya - Vanilla!!

snowlvr - Oh, I liked the mustard idea!

I like the mustard idea for me, and fuzzy socks, and nice PJ's, and a Christmas DVD to add to our collection, dark chocolate coconut creams from the local chocolate shop, fancy teas from Teavana in the mall, rooster kitchen towels ...

I can't think of any "big" item. I just enjoy cute little practical fun stuff I guess.

Jampss - hahaha an adult coloring book is just for relaxation, nothing else... here's a thread for a few :) They look really nice.

Need new pjs too.

I will be working on my stocking stuffers this weekend (wrapping and seeing if I have enough to fill the stocking).
I'll put a list of what I have here when I take the stuff out of the gift closet.

I like the Nomades bracelets because they represent our military life, mine before DH can be represented and then mine with him as well. It will take a lot of charms to account for everywhere we've been collectively so that's why I said one a special occasion after the initial bracelet stuff. Love reading these lists!

JollyKelly, I had to grin at your snow request. Here's hoping you get this one -- or at least have a better holiday than your post indicates :-0

My list - grandkids getting back to church
Son2 getting a reliable vehicle (Dau-n-law wrecked the one he just got; no one
hurt)
Clothes always nice - need (want?) some new scrub tops. But give me the funds so
I can pick what *I* want/like :)

My big one is the new Samsung tab. I am have bonus $ at work I am saving up and will cash in to buy it for myself though.

I collect the Alex and Ani bracelets so I would love a christmas one if they have it.

Another trip to Disney is always welcome, hee hee

Pass that I am not sure. I tend to get the little things for my self during the year and don't have hobbies any more to get stuff for, don't need much for the house....

JoKelly that's great about the snow!

Jess-have not seen those, it would be perfect

JayOkie-here's hoping you get everything on your list

Lucie=I have a coloring book but lately am just doing it on a app on my phone.

I have a few things on my list which is currently posted on the fridge.

A new perfume,
A teaspoon to replace one that is missing from my vintage cutlery set,
A new bedside clock radio, ( mine is random on if it wakes me up or not),
Some vanilla or Lavender bubble bath.

If I was very lucky I would like an ipod but they are very expensive.

I love these lists such fun and what I realise is that we are not overly demanding with what we would like. Simple pleasures.
