Christmas List (Mike version)
by Mike on Nov.22, 2008, under General
Johanna and I have been telling each other that we need to find time to go Christmas shopping, but before we do that we need to put together Christmas lists of what we want. Normally I am not the type of person to put together a list, it makes me feel needy. But this time around, I thought we could turn this into something a little more fun. So I am posting my list online for all my friends and family to see.
Chances are that none of you are going to buy me anything on here (though I wouldn’t complain… wink wink). But a Christmas list gives you a little glimpse at what makes us tick – the things we enjoy and dream about, what our priorities are, that sort of thing.
Later on I will try and convince Johanna to post hers as well. It might be kind of interesting to see if there is any overlap. But for now…
