Amazon Wishlist
 As much as I've been trying to ignore it, Christmas is coming. I've tried putting my fingers in my ears, closing my eyes and humming, but it hasn't worked. I am going to have to get started on Christmas shopping. Perhaps even harder for me is coming up with ideas to give to others about what my family and I would like for Christmas.
Don't get me wrong. I am very grateful for gifts. I actually love receiving gifts. I'm also very glad that some people want to know what I want. I hate being ungrateful, but some of my family members need a little bit of guidance. (Like the year I got a Jerusalem napkin holder and a pair of gold ballet-style slippers from my mother-in-law. Guidance would have been nice.)
I have found that the best tool for figuring out a wish list for everyone is Amazon.com. I have several wish lists at Amazon that I add to throughout the year. But about now (think today!) I've got to add ideas for everyone in the family. The thing that I like about it is that when I think of one idea, then it shows me the things that other people bought at the same time, so I get more ideas, and before long, I've got a wish list several pages long. Not that we get everything. I wouldn't want that. But my mother wants options. So, she gets options. I get to give guidance. And I tell my mother-in-law exactly what to get me. Sometimes I even buy it myself!
