I know, I posted this a few minutes early. I just couldn’t stay awake until midnight. It’s my fourth Thursday Thirteen<\/a> but the first one posted on a Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Christmas is just around the corner. The hubby tells me that he just doesn’t get hints. Those who know him likely wouldn’t be surprised to read this little tidbit. He’s repeatedly told me that if I want something specific I have to come out and say it.<\/p>\n

This week’s Thursday Thirteen<\/a> is my attempt to not only tell the hubby what I’d like, but put it in writing so he can refer back to it anytime he needs to. Of course, this list isn’t just for him – anyone wanting to grace my Christmas tree with these items will be loved and adored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thirteen Things about SHE<\/strong>. Christmas Wish List.<\/center><\/p>\n
    \n
  1. TicTac Silvers<\/a> – A few years ago I bought some Christmas tree ornaments stuffed with these. They’re so yummy but alas can’t be found in stores in my area. I’ve filled suitcases with them when traveling back from the US. I’ve been known to stoop to begging traveling co-workers to bring me some (thanks Dane!).<\/li>\n
  2. Corky’s BBQ Sauce<\/a> – Memphis is one of my favourite US cities. When in Memphis I always make a point to eat at Corky’s BBQ<\/a> at least once. I’ve actually broken a suitcase bringing bottles of this stuff home (the bags weighed so much). Alas, I haven’t been to Memphis in a few years and have no sauce left…<\/li>\n
  3. Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association: (5th Edition)<\/a> – I’m going to need this for my next batch of courses at university.<\/li>\n
  4. Learning to Solve Problems: An Instructional Design Guide<\/a> – I’m working on expanding my resource library.<\/li>\n
  5. Curriculum, Plans, and Processes in Instructional Design<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  6. Rapid Instructional Design: Learning ID Fast and Right, 2nd Edition<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  7. A flat panel monitor for my home office. It’ll hook up nicely on the back of the laptop when I’ve set my system into it’s dock and make working with documents a bit easier…<\/li>\n
  8. A multi-function printer for the home office. Despite the planned office destination, this will be used mainly for scrap booking rather than work. The laser printer we have handles all of the office related print jobs I need. I want a multi-function printer to scan in photos and print digital photos we have on disk.<\/li>\n
  9. A new chair for the home office. Unfortunately, to find a good replacement for the current chair, I’ll have to be in on the hunt. It has to satisfy both my back and my butt so a new chair can’t be a surprise purchase.<\/li>\n
  10. Opera tickets<\/a> – Hey hun, they’re running the Barber of Seville<\/a> this year!<\/li>\n
  11. Backscape<\/a> – There’s just something about this print that really draws my eye and attention.<\/li>\n
  12. MacBook or MacBook Pro<\/a> – I know, I need a desktop system more than I need another laptop, but it’s still nice to dream. If I sit down and really think about it, I can’t justify purchasing a new system for a few years yet – that’s why this is called a wish<\/em> list.<\/li>\n
  13. A winning lottery ticket so we can pay off the mortgage years early.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
