I Wish....

A friend of mine posted a bunch of things on her want list a few days ago. It really got me to thinking. I have quite a few wishes too.. Some are reasonable, and some are way out there. One of the things on my friends list was a cute hairstyle.. I splurged the other day and went to a REAL salon and got a GREAT haircut! I am so pleased with it..
I am trying to do housework today and it makes me really wish I had a maid. It's not that I am too busy to clean or don't have time.. cause I do. I just don't want to do it! ha! I get in a cleaning mode every once in a great while, but that never comes on weeks like this one where I have time to clean. I just wish I had someone to come in and do all my floors. That would make me happy.. ha!
Now for my list of wishes...it includes but is not limited to.
1. I wish our family could take a beach vacation with friends.. just to hang out in a condo on the beach and relax.
2. I wish we could pay off our mortgage and our cars and never have those big payments again EVER.
3. I wish I could put new carpet in my whole house
4. I wish Elijah had a nice backyard to play in with a super cool swing set
5. I wish I had gone to nursing school when I was younger
6. I wish I wasn't addicted to diet coke
7. I wish all three of our kids were just mine and Britt's and we didn't have "the other parents" to deal with.
8. I wish Elijah's cancer would be gone forever
9. I wish I was skinny and healthy
10. I wish that if I was skinny and healthy, I had cute shoes and clothes
11. I wish I spoke more than one language.

These are in no particular order of importance, obviously. Elijah's healing would be at the top of the list for sure.. Just some thoughts. I know that none of the other things are ingredients to true happiness.. most are just silly wants and thoughts. A girl can dream, can't she? Maybe I can start marking some of this off my list one by one.. starting with Elijah's cancer being gone - forever.
