Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

My Christmas List 2011

December 12, 2011

So, I wasn’t sure I wanted to post my Christmas List 2011 for fear of being seen as being caught up in the consumerism of the season, but I need to post something (in case there is someone still reading my blog) so here goes.

1. Erin Condren Life Planner – Yeah, it’s expensive for a planner but OMG it has TABS!! I’m a sucker for this kind of stuff – it’s a planner, it’s colorful, it’s customizeable, and it has tabs! What’s not to love??

2. Catholicism DVD Set – This is a fantastic video series by Fr. Robert Barron and is good for cradle Catholics as well as ones who are newer to the faith or even those who just have questions about what Catholics believe. There is even a companion book and study guide if you really want to delve into it all.

3. Kitchen Scale – I really need to start measuring out my food so I can be sure I’m eating what I’m supposed to be eating because I know I’m not. I really have no idea what an ounce of meat looks like especially, so this would be very good for that. It would also help with packages because I’m probably going to start selling my used homeschool stuff again next year as Katie and Becky outgrow their kindergarten and first grade curriculum.

4. These chair things for bed – Okay, I think they’re officially called “bedrests” but whatever. It would be nice to sit up and read in bed so my back can be supported rather than lying on my side, which is okay, but not overly comfortable.

So, that’s my list for this year. I looked over last year’s list and I actually got one of the items as a Mother’s Day gift – the stick blender!! That’s been fun to use! I forgot about the Quality Street chocolates – they’re hard to find over here anyway. Overall, I’m so thankful for many things this year that the gifts are just fun, the real gifts for me this year have been getting out of debt, Maggie being healthy since our scare with her, and my healing that continues. Thank you God for your gifts each day – even when I don’t recognize them or I want to give some of them back because they don’t look like gifts. Help me to accept what you want for me. Although, I’d like fewer house problems. Sorry, had to throw that in. Luckily, Lord, you understand me :-).

As a rampant consumerist, I 100% agree with posting gift lists online. Because now I don't have to dig through my Skype logs to find it back >_>
