Just something fun and lighthearted.
What have you asked for or what would you wish for?
I've asked for a lamp for my hallway (is this sad? but I love decorating), mascara (the benefit they're real one I think it's brill) and a new coat.
I wish I could have a trip home to see the family would easily give up my presents for that 😘Flowers

@Magissa Nope never tried it before but I'm hoping it'll help with my anxiety. Will report back when I've tried it :) xx

Wasn't going to ask for anything but just seen that Kenneth Branagh (can't stand) is hosting a live chat with Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Derek Jacobi and Ian McKellen. £45 a ticket and would so love to see it but can't justify it. It's the end of this month though would be an early pressie.

Measuring spoons (the toddler played with my set and lost some of them)
A new oven mitt
Pjs as my old ones are falling apart.

So much glamour here. I picked affordable things so the D.C. can afford something for me.

DH and I just buy a token gift so we have something to open, so my list is a mug, some Bath stuff and chocolate.

A robovac.
I know it sounds boring but I couldnt justify spending the money on it myself but would get so much joy (and time) from having one. And theres nothing else I really want other than a pair of new slippers.

Ds7 got me a lovely 2021 diary for work. He insisted it had to be pink as my current black on is boring. Only after seeing the new one arrive I realise how boring my old 2020 one is.

New trainers as the sole has come off mine.
A mug with a nice picture on for work
Hand cream
Sanctuary bubble bath
Man Booker Prize shortlisted books
Pyjamas
Jumpers ina smaller size as I’ve lost 3 stone this year.
Scented candles
Socks
A small box of hotel chocolat (still dieting...)
Whatever DD13 chooses as she knows me really well and buys brilliant presents.

Watching with interest. I am completely stuck for ideas for myself and DH, DM and DMIL are all asking me for ideas. Basically, I wear comfy joggers and sweaters, walk the kids to school, work at my laptop, drink coffee, go for walks, drink wine, read, go to bed. Every day. I don't need a coat or boots, I have loads of books to read, tech all works fine. Not spotted anything so far on this thread to inspire me but I'll keep watching.

We’re not officially going to do presents this year because we’ve moved into a very old house and there’s a lot that needs doing (and paying for).

But, I’m going to get my DH a couple of token gifts, and I’m going to buy myself an early Christmas gift of some Christmas decorations that I want.
