All I want for Christmas

Christmas is only 11 days away.  I am not ready.

I still need to make my Christmas list.  I will do that now!

1. A peephole for my front door.  Right now I have shutters I can peek through, but whoever is out there can peek right back.  If I had a peephole, I could look quietly and then pretend no one is home if I don't want to deal with whoever is out there.  I feel like I am becoming the mean mommy in the neighborhood because I am constantly telling children to go away.  If I had a peephole, I wouldn't have to tell them anything.  (I really hope Santa brings this because I'm pretty sure I will be needing it Christmas morning.)

2. Presentable, plain pajama bottoms.  Then all I would need to do to be bus-stop-ready is brush my hair and teeth and throw on my big coat.  That would save me lots of time in the early morning, especially on the mornings I have to make lunch.

3. Willpower.  The ability to stand around at a birthday party for a half-hour with a beautiful, delicious-looking cupcake in my hand, and not eat it.  Not that my kids would ever ask me to hold their cupcake.  But it would be nice to know that I could.

I want lots of other stuff too but I don't want to be unreasonable.  I'll save it for next year.
