I've been hit with a Christmas MeMe, thanks to good ol' Charles Buell.  This took a few days of deliberation, because, seriously, when you read what it entails, it can cause some deep consideration and thought.

Simply put, you are to share the one thing you would like for Christmas, (but not something generic like "world peace" or "your two front teeth"...) provided money/time/location was not an issue.

My request is definitely the thing I would most like for Christmas.  However, it's in true Joslyn spirit, because although this would change my life, it's not really FOR me.

If I could have anything for Christmas, it would be a farm for the love of my life, Nick.

He's a good guy.  Has a good job restoring lakeshore in Minnesota.  (Important!)  He's been in the newspaper.  He works 8-4.  And he misses the little dude and I TERRIBLY during the day.

He is happiest puzting around on his tractor, spreading manure in the pasture, and doing anything mechanical.  At his previous job, for Prairie Restorations, he used to harvest seed for a week in the fall, and he loved everything about it except being away from home for a week.

I want the whole shebang.  Tractors, land, a farmhouse, a barn, cows, horses, chickens... whatever his dream farm is, I want us to just magically own it.

Although I know it isn't going to happen this Christmas, I keep my hopes up for the future.  We have a goal.  He even has a time frame.  He's kicking around ideas.

I guess if I had to settle for a second present, it would be that the market would improve greatly, so that I was making enough money that I could support us on my income.

I guess that is what I would ask for this Christmas.
