Dear Santa:
I haven’t written in years, thinking I’m too old for your magic. This year, however, I wish I’d written sooner. You see, I’m in a jam. I’ve got so much going on that I really just want a few things for me for Christmas. Nothing big. (Well, OK, I do want that photography light.) But, what I really want are a few simple things:
- I’d love for you to bake some sugar-free sweets. I’ve been baking this month for others and would love for someone to bake for ME. I know you read my blog so I don’t have to remind you that I have gestational diabetes. (A terrible form of torture during Christmas.) Since I have been baking for others, I haven’t had the time to experiment with some sugar-free recipes that I really want and now I’ve run out of time.
- Replace the batteries in my favorite black watch. I haven’t worn it in nearly a year because I haven’t had a chance to get the battery replaced.
- Import my old addresses.dba file into a new contact management system so that I can create mailing labels.
- Upgrade my blog to the newest version of WordPress; I’m several versions behind.
- Send your elves down to my house on January 2, (I don’t think they will be busy) to take down and pack up all of my Christmas decorations.
When you arrive on Christmas Eve, can you set the clocks back two hours so I can get some sleep? I think I’m going to need the extra time.
