This year’s Christmas list is pretty slim. Last year I had a full list of items I wanted and got, well, pretty much everything on my list. I’m still thrilled with my gifts so much that not a lot has come out this year that I want.

There are some items that I could use like a truck toolbox and a truck bed liner. As I’ve gotten older, I don’t mind practical gifts or getting something that we need and calling it a Christmas gift. When I was a teenager, I could never understand getting someone an appliance for Christmas. Now I would be thrilled to be a dishwasher, refrigerator, or even something smaller like a mixer as a gift. I guess I am growing up.

This year I do want a digital picture frame as well as a radio/cd player that mounts under the kitchen cabinet. That’s about it for my list. I would like Carnival Games or EA Playground for the Wii. Such a simple list this year especially compared to last year’s list. I guess as I get older I’m just more satisfied with what I have.
