Default All I want for Christmas is...

my family to be together and to have a good time! ...Xmas was always more about being together than anything else at our house (with food coming a very close 2nd - eating disorders do that to you! Food was love to Mom, so she made sure we all got fed- A LOT!)...which is atypical for Salvadorans, because we don't go around visiting friends after 7pm, nor were we allowed fireworks on Xmas (only for New Years!)...

but, what would you like to receive as a gift, other than non-material things?

My actual present might well end up being a pair of brown shoes -which I desperately need, as my old ones are quite worn....if I could have what I wanted it would probably be a whole new wardrobe ((sigh))...nothing fits! I'm too fat at the moment! (my ideal weight - as per the nutritionist - is 105lbs...I have been there and didn't like it! I look TOO thin!...so my ideal weight- as per myself- is 108lb (I'm 4ft 11" so, believe me, those 3 lbs SHOW) to 110lbs...I generally fluctuate between 113-115lbs...but right now, I'm at 120! )...ok, so maybe a gym membership would make more sense! LOL!

There's this very cool belt one can use for hip belt squats. I'm hoping for that.

Non material I would love to be able to see my family, or even some of it! (extened, I have the kids and DH) OH I would dearly truly LOVE to fit into my real size (umm like 5 inches on the waistline to go)

Material? hmmmmmmm can I go so large as to have the CC paid for? or smaller, how about some really bubbly bubble bath.

I've got a few things on my list (and my birthday is this month, yeah!)
- new sheets
- a food sealer (for freezing garden excess)
- a subscription to a magazine that I am too cheap to buy for myself
- the biggie - a remote car starter! Had one on my old car and loved it.

Peace! My family is in conflict over something so trivial and it disturbs me to see this petty quarreling at each function. Then again, I could go for some hardcover anne rice novels

Dear Santa,

I want a pasta maker, a copy of the new Charlie and the chocolate factory and a new mixer
