  • a creative breakthrough
  • spring
  • walks
  • long hair
  • magic elfin housecleaners who work at night while i sleep
  • someone else to pick up the dog poop which accumulated in my front yard this winter
  • new kitchen sink and counters (well, old but new to me..soapstone,butcher block, enamel)
  • my sofa reupholstered

If I had a blog I would borrow your borrowed idea but my list would probably break other people's computers it would be so long. I love your list. Have you found out who makes those boots? That is kinda what I was looking for but settled for some nice Sorels because that was what I could find and liked that were not $400.

Thanks for always sharing. :)

I am loving your list hun...and I hear you. I would also like someone else to pick up the dog poop which has accumulated over the winter! :) I am going to try to hunt down those boots for you....

Oh, Cabin Fever! Your list could be my list, almost. I had a pair of crepe sole boots like that way back & they were so comfortable. Was thinking about them just the other day and hoping I could find a similar pair. What I'm wearing now look like I've been on a chain gang for years. Comfy but beat up. Hearing you on the kitchen sink/counters. I want the antique, one piece porcelain on cast iron combo that was a staple in most early 1900s farmhouses.

hehehe - the title reminded me of how we tease Oliver when he wants something new. We say he's got a case of the wanties and he is just adamant that he does not. It's pretty funny.

great list - I could really use the top five items. The kitchen counter sounds so nice too, I love soapstone. I have often seen those back packs or rucksacks show up on another online site for sale - there is a listing for one identical now for only 20.00. Let me know if you want me to send you the link to that one.

I would sorta, kinda, definitely like everything you've got on that list, except the dog poop part and the long hair (I already have that). 'specially the greenhouse

I found Uh-mazing boots on my regular search for awesome footwear... these are too big for me :( I hope it's not weird that I send you an Ebay item number. They are similar (but not the same) to the ones in your list. I am sending you the item number rather than the link so it doesn't seem so spammy. # 390161869918 If this is inappropriate, let me know!
