    if i could have anything:

    alexander skarsgard, even just for half an hour ;)
    one of everything that Lush sell
    some new clothes to go with my body, which would look like megan fox's.
    A bigger house
    a cheap runaround car

    The harsh reality is that i'm a good few stone heavier than megan fox, alexander skarsgard will never be my boyfriend and our budget for each other this christmas is nil.

    I'm going to be happy watching my five year old open his presents and his newborn brother's presents, in a warm house with food in our bellies, this is a lot more than some people have. There was a terrible incident in my town a few years ago when a homeless man froze to death on xmas eve night, it was a particularly harsh night and he was trying to get to the warmth of the police station. Kinda puts not getting pretty trinkets into perspective :(

    I want for Christmas a Kindle and a Binary Watch.

    Not likely to get either! It will be smellies for baths I dont have from my Mum (shower stuff,please!!!), Dad will put some money into my account and the kids will get me whatever I can afford for them.

    Personally I would love to have my health back, unfortunately that isn't likely to happen:( so when I asked the children to write their lists for christmas at the weekend they asked me to do the same.I came up with
    a new dressing gown as mine has seen better days
    an autobiography, not to bothered whos
    some new slipper boots
    and a photograph that I have of the children enlarged to a wall print. The kids were less than impressed with my list as they have said its too small .But there is nothing else I want or need.
    Paul Walker , in my dreams;)

    Cheesy I know but seriously I would give all my presents away if I could have my daughter, SIL and 2 very young grandsons here for christmas day. They live in America :(
