What do you really want for Christmas?

I often hear people talking about the things they wish they could have from a relationship, whether that be an marital one or otherwise. Thing is wishing is useless! We need to be 100% certain of what we do want not what we don't want! What do I mean? Focusing on what we don't want just brings about more of the same. Trust me on this one. If we focus only on what we do want we will feel more confident & empowered to achieve those outcomes for all areas of our life. Give yourself the greatest gift this Christmas & start right now to work out what it is you really really want not what you don't want!

I have read your post twice and it really reads as you are contradicting yourself Confused.

Nice thread and very true.....
However all I want for Christmas at this very point in time is:

  1. A divorce
  2. Happy children
  3. A {no strings attached) shag with a fit, single, kind, caring, loving bloke Grin

Don't think that's too much to ask.

  1. For him to just leave
  2. For me to know what its like to be treated
properly again
  1. Peace on Earth? Nah. Peace at home would do.

I want what I have.

I just want a little more time to appreciate it and the realisation that I am really really lucky.

I want my voluntary severence to be approved so I can financially justify having at least 3 more years as a SAHM, even though both of my kids will be at primary school.

I want my husband to appreciate what hes got =-(

maktaitai · 08/12/2010 00:11

I want my husband to be healthy. And in an ideal world, earning some money... but that's less important.

And I want a job.

SparkleSoiree · 08/12/2010 00:13

I want to clear my debt quicker than our plan currently reads.

porkchops · 08/12/2010 00:18
  1. a new coffee pot
  2. a mini tummy tuck without the pain or the op (magic wand?)
  3. to make some interesting friends in the new country we're in

(These are just for me, selfish things. I want happiness and health things for the DCs and DH and family more)
