Something you’d like to receive this holiday season

1. Peace and quiet
2. Better health for me and my sick kitty
3. More fruitcake and egg nog, please
4. The 1976 Schwinn Cruiser Santa promised instead of that P.O.S. Huffy he tried to pass off on me. I’m growing impatient!
5. Less freezing rain than last year.
6. A different President-elect
7. And a different VP-elect
8. A white Christmas
9. Safe weather for the 10 hour drive to my mother’s house (no blizzards or black ice please!)
