Wish Lists

Tawny Taylor

Maybe it’s a little early to be thinking about this stuff. But hey, our local radio station’s already changed to their All-Christmas music format, all the stores are dripping with tinsel and garland, and there’s a giant inflatable snow globe sitting in the middle of Meijers. My kids have already written their wish lists for Santa (aided, of course, by the Toys R Us Holiday Catalogue) and mailed them off. They dream of Robo Reptiles, stuffed puppies and wooden choo-choo’s.

Yes, my thoughts are already focused on Christmas. Deck the Halls…and all that *g*.

Naturally, I’ll spend nearly every penny I can on the kiddies, giving them the things they want and need (keyword there–NEED *g*). I don’t expect to get anything. The joy of seeing them open their gifts is enough for me.

But…if I were asked to create a Wish List, oh, the fun I would have!

Let’s see…

I’d wish for a HUGE bonus for the hubby.

I’d wish for a winning lottery ticket.

I’d wish for no snowfall after December 25th.

I’d wish for a magic pill that would make me lose the last fifteen pounds that refuse to budge from my hips, thighs and fanny.

And I’d wish for a copy of every book published by my three fave authors, both their backlist (what I don’t own already) and their future books.

What about you? What would you put on your wish list?

And if you’re in the mood for a book about wishes that perhaps shouldn’t come true, you might want to check out my book, About Monday (written under my Sydney Laine Allan pseudonym). About Monday

  1. I’d wish for a $350 ipod, cuz I don’t know if I could spend that on myself.

    I’d wish for temps to stay above 30 degrees all winter.

    I’d wish for spending the month of January on an island - Hawaii, Aruba…I’m not picky.

    I’d wish Suzanne Brockmann could write at least 3 times as fast.

    I’d wish to get a new car.

    Heck, I’d wish to get a new house while I’m at it.

    I’d wish cholesterol didn’t exist and I could eat chocolate, or cheese, or bacon, or steak whenever I wanted.

    I’d wish I only needed to work a 4-day work week

    Okay, I think Santa’s gonna take me off the good girl list if I write anymore…

  2. I’d wish for a copy of About Monday! It sounds like a great story!

    I’d wish for one of those winning lottery tickets so I didn’t have to worry about money anymore and could do things for my children and grandchildren.

    I’d wish for good health for my family, my friends and myself.

    I’d wish for no more than a light dusting of snow this winter. Shoveling it is hard on my back and dangerous to drive in.

    Needless to say, I wish I could also have all the books from my favorite authors!

  8. I’m having SO MUCH FUN reading everyone’s wishes! How I wish I could make them all come true!

    Stacy, I’m with you on the steak. YUM!

    Carol, you think we’ll get our wishes on the snow??? Wouldn’t it be great?

    Sandra, choking on that health insurance bill! That’s a topic for another time, but I feel your pain. The hubby and I are both self employed. No health insurance here.

    Kim H, I think you’re the first person I’ve ever met who wished for a family reunion. Do you live far from your family? Hugs!

    Amy, maybe we could go to Hawaii together. I’d LOVE to go there someday.

    And good luck selling your house, Estella.

    Lois…space? What a great wish! Though I get carsick riding a teeter-totter. No way I could handle space travel.
