If you made a list to ask Santa for as an adult, what would be on it?

Physical things like a kid would ask for that maybe you’ll get someday or maybe you just get to daydream about the possibility. I know we all have other well wishes for non-material things but I’m not asking about those as they can bring up difficult subjects.

It’s funny how sometimes the wanting is even more fun than the having. Looking through some old Sears Wishbooks brought back tons of memories doing just that this time of year.

I know Santa’s not bringing me a new watch since those daydreams have gotten pricy, but I think I would add one to the list just to give me a reason to think about it. A shotgun might make the list if I could decide on a particular model.

Socks and underwear could probably go on everyone’s list but that stuffs so boring.

Holiday Reeses definitely make my list even though they are bad for me.

Yours?

You'd trust someone else to select one? Maybe I need to go to the gun room and see if anything seems to be missing.i

I'd ask for a two week vacation and a person to do my work in my absence. I took Monday and Tuesday off and came back to 160+ emails and 25 work orders.

I'd really love a vacation with no stress/anxiety on the return to work.

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight…



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

A pallet of Talisker 18 year age statement.
Really dig the 10 year, can't afford/find the spendier version, but I've heard great things about it.

Why a pallet? Optional forms of payment are always intriguing to me. Especially if I can eat it or alter my perception with it.

Nothing for me I have enough stuff. I would ask for Santa for things other people really need.
Not to be a downer but this used to be my favorite time of the year, and it still is but I see a lot of people who just can't afford it for their young children.In a way that makes me a little sad this time of the year.
My wife runs the toy drive for the the division of the company in Florida.
They collect toys all year long. They end up donating them to a local charity that distributes in the central Florida area.
