Christmas - This one's for my family
I do have some more "spiritual" posts in process. If you don't know me well, this will seem like a pretty selfish post. Those who know me well will see that I am using this format only for practical purposes. Christmas is approaching and, though there is much to be said against the commercialism of it and the loss of the true meaning - that is not the purpose of this post. Since I am far apart from my family, I am going to use this particular space simply to communicate some needs that I have and some things that have caught my eye so that, come Christmas day, as the Lord provides, perhaps some of these needs/wants will be met. I believe this will help us all to be good stewards of the Lord's money :-)
Needs:
Clothing - most everything I have is pretty aged and is starting to fall apart.
I could use a couple more pair of jeans (I really like the St. Johns Bay style at JC Penney) and I am pretty desperate for some slacks - I only have two pair and one of those is corduroy with a bleached out part across the tummy that I always have to hide when I wear them :-P.
I could also use some nice blouses - most of what I have is a little too casual for work - speaking of which, some work outfits would be really useful (though I'm not real big on jackets - I have tons but don't tend to wear them).
I don't need sweaters and I don't really need skirts unless they come as part of a suit. And I really don't need coats or jackets of any sort.
I could use a new set of drinking glasses and/or juice glasses. I just broke another one last week :-( so I'm down to 3 glass glasses that match :-P and 2 plastic ones.
Wants:
Well, we all know the big one on this list ;-) So I won't mention that here as we all know that's up to God and not you or me :-)
Aside from that, here's some things that I would love to have in my home:
A guitar - I've had the urge to pick it up again :-)
Harry Potter and/or LOTR "Scene It" game :-)
Ivory wall stuffs - like candle holders or mirrors or other decoration.
Coffee Table (small but rectangular) - preferrably with drawers - storage is at a premium in my little studio apartment!

That's worth considering :-) Let's see what Santa brings and if he couldn't fit a gitar in his sack, I'll swipe yours for a bit :-)
