Christmas pie-in-the-sky wish list. Maybe if I (and all my friends) win all the big pot lotteries..

So I wanted to post my Christmas pie-in-the-sky wishlist, because I’m feeling really greedy.


1) Breyer horses. All the horses. Because HORSES!

a. For true, I think I’m going to seriously look into a set of stablemate horses and riders (7) so I can do some photography
work… I’ve had this fantasy about making new Mag7 eps using Breyer models and modd’d dolls.

b. If I do go this route, I’ll pick up a set of stablemates and riders, 2 sets of traditional models (one ‘action-y’, one standing for
each horse) and male dolls I can modify, and assorted other models and maybe some tack examples.

c. I’ll probably spend some time with suede leather and a history book making my own tack, etc.

d. I can’t forget at least 1 blonde and 1 brunette female dolls for Mary and Inez!

e. However, this will probably take some time to put together, because I have LOADS of time to spend on this, so don’t look for
anything soon.

2) Patricia Briggs to write a spin-off series for Warren and Kyle

a. And shorts for Warren wiping the floor with Paul after he got better in Blood Bound; and Warren and Adam meeting for the
first time pre-series.

b. Fanfic of Warren and Kyle getting back together after the split in MoonCalled…

3) Jigsaw puzzles.

a. Time to *do* jigsaw puzzles

b. A neat accessory stand/ table/ etc to keep my puzzles neat and orderly and out of everybody’s way while I do them.
4) A tow-behind cart for my lawn-mower

5) A lawn-clipping attachment for said lawnmower

6) A small, low trailer that the mower can be steered into for things like maintenance, etc. Note this would also require some steel track-things that one pulls out so a car/ lawnmower can access the trailer bed….

7) A big enough ‘landing pad’ at the end of the driveway to turn around with running into the mud.

8) 2 outbuildings of decent size – one for carpentry, one for the above-mentioned ‘writing an episode’ project

9) A good-sized in-ground swimming pool with all the accessories and cool stuff I want. It’s not two acres of pool, but it’s not a kiddie pool from Walmart, either…

10) A dog that will pee outside in the rain…

11) ALL the Susan Roberts needlepoint stocking designs. Because dear lord, they’re delicious!

12) A big quilt stand/ latch-hook standing frame – the kind that rolls back and forth as you work on your fabric.

13) A 60-in or wider widths of 10-mesh needlepoint canvas, in equally long or longer lengths.

a. All the pretty, pretty HAED cross-stitching patterns I desire

b. Enough DMC thread to stitch those…

i. Because I’ve been curious about how these patterns would do in a large setting, as opposed to the 2-over-1 on 25ct they
recommend now. Will they work as tapestries? If they do, that’s a big canvas!

ii. I really wish someone would pre-grid that 10-gauge mesh canvas for me….


14) Yardmen to help me turn my vision into a reality, since I’m apparently out of energy, time, and talent to do so… they can be Cabana boys in the pool when they finish ;)

15) Outdoor doggie bed that Abbie will use so I don’t feel guilty about going out on a nice day to sit on the swing when she has no place to lay down…

16) Time, energy, and money to get all this done.

17) Obviously, I need another 48hrs in every day to get it all done.

18) Mainstream/ pro romance or erotica with an female INTJ engineer as the heroine. It should be stamped in bright hairy letters 'female INTJ in here!' with circles, arrows, and underlinings. Because INTJs are notorious for not being able to pick up a hint.

19) And of course, all the Mag7 fic I’ve been wanting forever should be magically written in the most exciting (whichever interpretation is most relevant…) means possible, lol."



Whatever holidays you celebrate, whether with religious observances or commercial delights or an exuberance of both, Happy Holidays!
