What Would You Want If You Could Have ANYTHING From SANTA?

Any ideas?

Drink. You won't notice the pain till the next day. :)

Lol. This is the third week and now I'm in therapy. Too late to start drinking, but the drugs are pretty good.

A wormhole to travel back in time?

Ditto on the new body. Mine has worn out b4 its time. I'm rather irritated w/ the entire concept of "pain management" (w/ all its fed rules & regs & "controlled substances") as opposed to "pain eradication". The pain mgmt dr said if she gave out enough meds to eradicate pain it would kill ya. There needs to be a "magic pill" that won't do that & makes ppl feel "normal" again at the very least, if the new model body's an impossibility.

A time machine would be fab for a "do-over"....if you got to keep all the knowledge acquired & knew wher you were going to screw up so that it could be avoided. O to be 17 again & know then what I know now....

scar-tissue, if you come across a drug or treatment like that, please let me know. I want some of it fast!

O to be 17 again & know then what I know now....

maybe...I think it's probably a lot more fun at 17 to not know what's in store!

I certainly get feeling 20 walking around in a 66 year old body. There isn't all that I cannot do that I've always done, as I'm pretty fortunate. However, there is plenty I won't do simply because my bones won't hold up and I treasure the density I've managed to retain. All my 60 and over buddies feel the same way though so I'd ask our creator to do a bit better job building the bones joins heart and such.

My selfish wish for Santa:

I would like a couple of acres of land with rich soil a shovel and other garden tools and all the plants I could possibly grow. I would promise to share all the fruits and vegetables with others however.

New hips, then a husband with a job.

McSpocky I am a plant and gardening junkie.

Dee I wouldn't mind if my guy scored a job! It's been two years and Santa ought to fork over.

Ok then I'll just share all the veggies and fruits I grow! How's that? Actually I'd also like a few coffee trees Mac nut trees and the like.

I think we are asking the wrong one for what we want, it's suppose to be God.

Well, OK-- all seriousness aside, I would like it if Santa ran across a few good looking younger girls, -- at my age that would be around 30 to 40 yrs old-- and they would mistakenly take me for some sort of guru and want to come here to live and take care of me in the spring time of my dotage so they could sit around and listen to my words of wit and wisdom.. hows that for an exercise in wild imagination?

@Atsidi.....

As soon as I pick myself up off the floor and stop laughing, I'll get back to you on that!!!

Signed,

Santa

Cheater! :) That's no fun.

Ask for something ridiculously expensive and totally materialistic. :)

How about happiness for everyone?

That just goes without saying, to me, kinda like world peace.

Santa wishes are reserved for wildly crazy gifts. Like diamond beaded, crotchless panties, or, you know, something like that. :)

OK I want a @!$%# off high definition TV......and happiness - better?:-) not world happiness - just me! LOLOL!!!!

I want a Mustang- Mach1 with a black spoiler on the back...with a full cam and Holley 4 barrel.

I'd like a shiny metallic candy apple red top of the line Jeep to tool around in. I like those b/c the seats are at the perfect height to just slide your ass in rather than go up & down like in a car.

I had a Mustang once & it was a wallet-sucking POS that prolly had no original parts left on it by the time I blew the engine. Worst car I ever owned!

My Mach1 has to be red with the black lettering and spoiler...

The only thing I want is to have my husband cured of cancer.

The only thing I want is to have my husband cured of cancer.

: ( You know what? Yeah, me too. I want Santa to bring an overall cure for cancer. I lost my Dad to cancer. I don't know what to say. My thoughts are with you.

Blue, if prayer does not offend you, I pray it be so.

Blue that will be a GROUP PRAYER.

Blue that will be a GROUP PRAYER

No doubt, lost my dad to cancer in 2004.. My prayers are with you as well Blue....

Isabella that is the true spirit of Christmas..

Was gonna make some answer about a map to the buried treasure, but a cure for cancer would be nice. I just lost my mate to brain cancer less than 2 months ago. Cancer sucks.

Friends on the vine have been more help than they realise I think.We will be here for you too.

So many of them. I think we tend to focus on what we have been the closest to. It is our own pain that causes us to see that one over the others.

Count me in on that group prayer. ((((((bluewildcat))))))

Blue I certainly understand. Count on my prayers as well.

I'm on board with healing wishes!

I have a feeling smushy peas are much more accessible this year!

It's the same thought I have about what I would do if I won the lottery. I really hate money.

McSpocky,

Maybe it shows but I have been in a beauty pageant, I want world Peace.

I was in a pageant also, but I don't remember talking about world peace at all! What I do remember is that, although I didn't win or anything, it was loads of fun, like putting on a play or production; and my dad, who had never managed to sit through any performance of mine before, said afterward that I was the best one (MUCH better than winning!) Also the MC, who had at least tried to make it on Broadway, told me I should have won. It felt really nice to hear, though I wasn't devastated about losing. It didn't matter anyway b/c I was going to college out of state and could not have competed for the state pageant regardless. I really just did it for fun.

yeah I want a handyman or maybe a group- to clean out the attic, fix the shed, put in the hardwood floors, paint the master suite, haul stuff to the dump...

Kathy, if you live within 25 miles of me, I got someone for you.

Send him to me, If he looks and sings like Julio, I wouldn't care if he did any handy man jobs..(let me re-phrase that.)

lol THAT is awesome!

Think of it as you are rescuing a baby kitty.

An old guy moved from his home and left over 30 feral cats in his back yard. They began to migrate and we have 5 of them hanging around the houses nearby. Other people feed them now and there was a call to trap and relocate. My daughter's 15-year-old cat sits on the lanai and talks to these cats. One morning I was headed out to the lanai with my coffee and two of the cats were on the lanai hanging with the "boy". The lanai is about 15 ft off the ground. Some mornings I go out and there will be tails wagging on tree limbs. I truly enjoy cats, as they are pretty self-sufficient and silly as can be.

I filmed a video yesterday of the cat saying "Hello" to the feral cats. It turned out amazingly well and he was quite articulate. When I first told my guy about this he didn't believe me but one night he was out on the lanai when the cat began his call. He's a believer now!

Don't worry CM77, Santa IS real! The Easter Bunny told me!

Whew! Thanks, Elaine. I was really wondering how I was going to go about the rest of my life knowing up until now it was all built on myths and lies!!

lol! That's alright....all is well.

Oh my heck! Thanks so much. I thought you were just kidding, McSpocky, but I just wasn't sure! ; )

Speaking of "Santa is real"......................a few years ago my grandson (who was 5) asked me: Grandma, did you know Santa has been cloned? OMG! I STILL laugh over that one! So, if he's been cloned.................he's GOT TO BE real!

Merry Christmas!

That is so cute, G.H. lol Sure would explain a lot.

Yes, I thought so. Amazing things kids come up with! He's a smart one though, told me at age 4 he wants to be a Paleontologist! I hope he still feels that way when he's ready to graduate! ♥

OMG that’s so precious! Very astute little boy, me thinks!

LOL That is PERFECT GH

lol I have days like that... usually while driving to work.

Grim, at least you are willing to die yourself if need be. That's more than most who take your position, and I do credit you for that.

Wow Grim. I was just thinking the same thing, but didn't have the balls to put it up. My wish went more like: from now on every person on earth is limited to only two children. You have two and you caught your limit.

Wow! This amazes me. I thought for sure I'd get all kinds of hate posts. Comforting to hear I'm not alone. Thanks.

Grim Reaper, it makes me sad, but you're right about decreasing the surplus population. It'd be better for everything on the planet that isn't human.

Unfortuantely, many domestic animals would die very quickly of starvation or by predators in terrible ways. That is a lot of animals right now. (Remember the abandoned dogs howling after Katrina?) I'd feel sorry for them.

Santa doesn't need a big bag for all of that - a few plane tickets and some phone calls! Nothing really. And what about world peace??

You missed my earlier post # 1.9.

Beachfront isn't all it's cracked up to be.. Hurricanes, flood damage, outrageous insurance prices, outrageous property taxes, tourists all up in your back yard all the time.... I'm just sayin.

A beautiful, tropical,pristine island,to "get away from it all" with the One's I love!

Awe (so sweet)! Come on, Mama, tell the kiddos you deserve some Charlie for Christmas. I think you probably deserve it and the kidddos would like it too anyway. So it would be like them buying a gift for themselves! : )

My favorite line:

There must be millions of people all over the world who never get any love letters . . . I could be their leader. CB

Awesome quote Mo3! lol

: ) Thanks.

I want my very own Frosty the Snowman...I always loved that one!

Greedy huh? Well, I suppose I could ask for a different, healthier body. This one has rheumatoid arthritis. It would be a lot less painful.

But now, it feels like I'm feeling sorry for myself (which I'm not). Sheesh, this IS HARD McSpocky!:-)

Maybe God will give me another chance to get it right, or to help more people before he makes hs final decision about where I will spend eternity.

Appologies to those who may be offended by religious content, but this is to Dee.  Dee, I'm sure you know that salvation is by grace, not works (Ephesians 2:8-9); although faith without works is dead.  In other words, what you do does not save you- faith in Jesus' sacrifice does b/c he took the punishment for sin.  However, a person can say any words about faith they like and mean nothing at all.  It is the heart attitude that is important.  A heart attitude of faith will be reflected by works.  So IF you have true faith, it will be shown in your works.  Hopefully, that makes sense.  His decision about your eternity will be based on whether or not you accepted that Jesus paid the penalty for your sins and gave your life to him.  (Instead of trying to pay for your sins on your own)  If you truly did that, then it follows that you will do good things and help others.  It's not like people say magic words and all is well; the heart has to change.  On the other hand, it's never to late for the heart to truly change-remember the thief on the cross. This is not to force anything on you, but to offer something you can take or leave as you wish.

Ephesians 2:8-9 (New International Version, ©2010)
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

Luke 23:39-43 (New International Version, ©2010)

39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: "Aren't you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!"

40 But the other criminal rebuked him. "Don't you fear God," he said, "since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong."

42 Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[a]"

43 Jesus answered him, "Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise."

Please forgive any lack of relevance.

Amen.

With a second chance I would invest and make money off the republicans so that I could right now point out their views

I would like another chance to reverse some of the mistakes I made, (especially with people) and to get back all the money I wasted.

Seen too much

Yes, I new all that, but I would still like another chance to get light right for reasons that only God and I know. I would just like to have peace of mind at the hour of my death. I see that I am not the only one here with that desire.

I understand. There are things I would like to get straight before I die as well-I would really like to see my family reconciled. It will take a miracle for that.

Thats a Great Idea! And Happy Holidays to All!

Totally acceptable!

Happy Holiday's to you too McSpocky!
