Twenty-four Days of Wishes

December 1st is a trigger date for me.  Although I start decorating for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving, the first day of December is when

I start working on Christmas/holiday cards,

I start wrapping presents,

I begin opening the advent calendar(s) that I have,

I start playing Christmas CDs in the car.

I did watch a Christmas movie the other night: "The Man Who Invented Christmas" on Amazon.  It's the story (not sure how accurate it all was) of Charles Dickens' creation of "A Christmas Carol."  I enjoyed it, in no small part because Christopher Plummer was Scrooge.

Would you mind playing a Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Winter Solstice game with me?  Pretend you can be given a new gift every day between now and Christmas Eve. Think only about yourself here --- nothing for your partner or child(ren) or the country or the world.  If it helps, think of it as "Twenty-Four Days of Greed.)

See how I inadvertently tied my game idea to Scrooge?

Anyway, I'll go first.
