I had plenty of hours (five, to be exact) in the car today to finely tune my Christmas list.

 I want:

• someone to do my laundry (particularly now, as we have a week’s worth built up)
• snow to magically melt off of my sidewalks but stay beautiful on the ground and trees
• my pants, which somehow all shrunk around the waist and thighs, to go back to fitting again
• for my child to poop regularly.

Is this too much to ask?  Am I going to have to be satisfied with a sweater?

And really, when did my Christmas list get so lame? (and when did it begin to involve poop?)  I remember back when I wished for things like peace on earth and Tiffany & Co jewelry.

These days, though, I’d get a lot more mileage out of that mythical laundress (or launderer). 

This month, I’m getting a head start on my new year’s resolutions:

• make (and stick to) a Christmas crafting schedule
• clean up all of messes from said crafting so as to maintain pleasant relationship with husband
• eat right, drink less
• remain thankful, even when requested laundry-person is not in my stocking on Christmas morn.

Wish me luck.  Don’t worry, I’ll keep you up to date on my progress.
