NSOR: What's on your wish-list this holiday season?
My mom is asking for my Christmas list and I'm struggling to think of things that aren't either A) super expensive (like the $800 lens I want) or 
a Gift Card (she hates buying gift cards).
Maybe seeing what everyone else is asking for will spark an idea for me...
So, what's on your list this holiday season?
Re: NSOR: What's on your wish-list this holiday season?
-Clothes. Clothes, clothes and more clothes. All of mine are getting to be big and saggy and I can't really afford to buy new ones all the time. My mom has pretty good taste so I know I can count on her for that (minus pants).
-car charger for my phone
-pajamas
I found a nice watch I think I will buy myself. I've been saving all my change (loonies and twonies-$1 and $2 coins) for a while now and I figure by Christmas I'll have enough to buy it.
a job lol I'm a big fan of gift cards, too. Especially for my Kindle
-Bones season 6
That's about it really...wow. I remember when I'd use the Toys R Us guide as my wish list
Work clothes and a nice purse. All of mine are falling apart.
BF will probably buy me something tech since that's his comfort zone. He's got a lot of room to choose something since I don't even own an MP3 player. I'd rather have a spa day though. We'll see.
They see us rollin'...they be hatin'.
Pajamas and maybe a computer for my Spinning bike? I'm not sure.
I'd love for my rings to sell around the holidays--that would be gift enough.
a lens for my DSLR is pretty much all I need/want. I also would love to upgrade to the Kindle Fire but I don't think either one of those will be possible this year. Sigh..
I also need new perfume. I'm sick of what I have been wearing for the past 10 years.
Aww, I'm so sorry Pestie
{{{HUGS}}}
My 11-year-old dog is headed down this path too. I'm so sorry RP.
They see us rollin'...they be hatin'.
Oh Pestie, I'm so sorry to hear about your pooch
Sorry, River

My mom really struggles with buying for me because I have pretty specific taste in clothes and I think, while her heart is in the right place, her taste is simply different than mine. Last year I made a wish list on Forever 21.com. You can make wishlists on lots of sights like victoria's secret, amazon, forever 21,etc. Why not try something like that?
For Christmas this year I haven't even thought that far out. I usually want clothes and I'm definitely in the market for a cute pair of equestrian boots. I also need a full length mirror for my room since P broke mine.
-new clothes since I am losing weight
-North Face Osito jacket (mine is too big)
-Spa Day
-Workout Clothes from Athleta
-Carpet Cleaner Machine thingy
I just did my B-day wish list, so anything that I don't get off that:
Kitchenaid pasta roller attachment
Imersion blender
Cast iron frying pan
Dutch oven (enamel or cast iron)
Work clothes
Wusthof classic 7" or 9" santuko knife
Side note: I looked at my Xmas list from last year, and the number 1 thing on it was "a job that comandeers respect and pays well," and I am happy to report that I eventually got it! That made me smile to see how far I've come in a year.
A snowboard bag for my trip to CO
More snowboarding stuff
that's about it. Hahaha.
My BIGGEST wish is that that the house I plan to buy next spring/summer doesn't sell in the next 6 months! It's walking distance to my current house where STBX will stay so managing shared custody will be easier. It is in diff neighborhood so we'll have needed space (but in the same school district). It's smaller so less to clean and it's 100G cheaper than current house so I can manage a mortgage alone!
A TV for my bedroom (the last one broke a few months ago) and I don't hang in the living room after the kids have gone to bed (as STBX is there).
The Trader Joe's cookbook - I gave one last year and it looked really good.
A lovely framed picture of my boys.
A feeling a peace sprinkled with hope
