I asked for new Christmas decorations (and also told everyone to order them after the holidays so they’re on sale!). We moved to a new house and the kids are finally old enough that I feel like I can finally have “nicer” stuff.

I also asked for a new bag, bathrobe, pots/pans, and I always end up with lots of candles and hand soaps - apparently a rumor started in DH’s family one year that I love hand soaps so that’s the go-to gift for me - I don’t necessarily mind, it’s just funny!

PP again. Also replenished all of my NAR’s make up and bought lounge wear and a gear smelling candle from Anthropologie. I rarely shop for me. And this is all practical and comforting now. DH has not commented yet.

I just saw "Covid" at the start of a new line in your post PP and thought you were being hilarious. A meal seems more...palatable!


I love the houseplant ideas! I think that will be the main thing on my list.

Hahaha🤣 yes a Shabbat meal is infinitely preferable to COVID.

I gave my mother a plant as a kid - and 30some years later it is still alive! And she still talks about my having given her that gift 😀. It even still blooms sometimes. (It was a Christmas cactus of sorts.)
