I got tagged by Patty at This, That and Frog Hair. She explains ….
Ok this is how it works. The player (me) must list 3 things that I would love to get for Christmas. Then I must list 3 things that I definitely do not want to get for Christmas. Then I tag 5 friends and list their names. The one I tag needs to write on their blogs about their Christmas wishes then tag 5 more people. They must also clarify all the rules. When you tag someone you need to leave a comment that says “you’ve been Christmas tagged!” in their comments and tell them to read your blog. Ok everybody.
Three Things I would Love to get for Christmas ….
- I would love to get a gaudy, ostentatious, semi-obscene ring that signifies to the world that my Beloved Curmudgeon loves me. It would reek of class! lol
- I would love for both of my children to be home and safe.
- I would love for the powers that be to get over themselves and start being statesmen instead of politicians. How about putting the people and the well-being of our country ahead of self-enrichment and political ambition. I know, that’s asking too much - but this is a wish list.
Three Things I Definitly Don’t Want for Christmas …
- NO MORE JUNK..I am sick of junk. (I agree with Peggy on this one!).
- I don’t want to hear any more about how we ‘can’t’. We can’t do anything with that attitude and what purpose does it serve except to embolden our enemies.
- I don’t want to hear another person say ‘I support the Troops, I just don’t support the war.’ Those things are mutually exclusive and a ridiculous thing to say. Either you are with us or you are against us. The same people who make statements like that have a tendancy to call our Troops stoopid and under-educated. They don’t let the facts get in the way of their disrespect for and contempt for our military and our government.
I Christmas tagged: The Median Sib, Cozy Reader, Daddy’s Roses, AubreyJ, The Pirate’s Cove
UPDATE: Also tagged for this meme by The Hill Chronicles! I ain’t doin’ it twice! lol But Layla did a great job.

You scoundrel! (Who did that remark make you think of?) I’ll get to it right after breakfast. Interesting wishes — I hope you get all three, although I don’t hold out too much hope on a couple of them.

Okay, okay. I’ll do it. However, I refuse to tag anyone! By the way, I’m officially off work for over TWO WEEKS! I’m so happy!

It is with profound regret and a small measure of delight that I inform you that you have been tagged again.

I was tagged with this too, by two people at the same time. I’ve got mine in draft for Saturday’s post, but I didn’t tag anyone.
May all your wishes come true! Merry Christmas!

Well, sorry Beth, but I did not know that Patty tagged you ‘first’. I just read how-to-do-it at Butch’s place, then went with some of my fav blogs! LOL….well it should make you feel good that more than one tagged you…LOL
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, Beth!
I want to apologize for the meme. I did it, and thought I had saved it, but never checked, now it is gone. Sorry!
Again, Merry Christmas, to you and your family!

William - don’t worry about it. I’ve gotten tagged for a couple I haven’t done yet! It’s a busy time of year.
I hope you have a VERY Merry Christmas (have you been naughty or nice?)!
Merry Christmas to you and your family!
