Next week I turn another year older! I've learned so many important lessons that seemed awful at first, but ended up being wonderful blessings at the end of the day. Quite the year! Along with my birthday comes the inevitable question from loved ones: What would you like this year? Well, let me tell you! Aside from the big ticket things- A Silhouette or Cricut and a great vaccuum, I want a nap. That's right, a nice long, uninteruppted, middle of the day, nap! Without the dog or children in the house, my phone shut off for the afternoon, a DO NOT DISTURB UNLESS AN EMERGENCY sign on my door, and the fan on with my down comforter pulled over my head! OHHHHHH! I haven't had one of those since college! I also want one afternoon to clean and organize one room in my house. I'm talking completely clean to the point of eating off of the floor and walls. And organized with a label maker and pretty little fabric covered boxes. A place for everything and everything in it's place. AHHHH! That's my Xanex! Clean and organized! Did I mention I would like a label maker and pretty litle fabric covered boxes?!? :) My, how my tastes in gifts have changed over the years! I'm fully satisfied with just a little alone time, just one afternoon and some time with the girls making fun of our husbands and comparing how demanding our children are! Maybe even playing some darts or Rummy or cornhole? And a bottle of wine? I'll pump and discard! And maybe a lunch and window shopping date with just my mom. No kids in tow, just my mom and myself looking at crafts and clothes and eating a nice lunch where we both can eat from beginning to finish of the meal at. the. same. time! ;) Ha!
What about you? What kind of gifts are perfect for your birthdays or holidays? Have your gift tastes changed?
