It's a tradition. Every year I start my Christmas list in September. I've been doing it for as long as I can remember writing out my own Christmas list. My methods have changed through the years (from paper and pencil to computer with word processor) but the outcome is still the same; a list packed with things I'd like (clothes), I'd love (books), and I definitely don't need (a trampoline...seriously, I write it down every year). I guess I really don't NEED to write down my list of wants and wishes anymore; my close friends and family members know me well enough by now to have a pretty good handle on what I'd appreciate for presents. But I just can't help myself. Like I said, it's tradition. And I love [most] traditions.
What's really weird is that if I haven't started a Christmas list by around September 25, something inside me just starts feeling just a little off. And this feeling compels me to once again write a list. So today I started my 2010 version. But this year the start of my list looks a little different:
1(a). To see Jonathan
1(b). To see my family
2. A safari trip
3. Books
4. Warm water for my showers
5. Trampoline
Yeah...some things never change :)
:D
ReplyDeleteMaybe one day you'll get your trampoline.
I'd be up for the safari ride!

I like this list A LOT! And I like how our priorities change as the years go by :)
ReplyDeleteSomeone will get you your trampoline. I'm certain of it.
