The following is a list of things I would like for Christmas this year. Some are attainable, others are not. If I think of anything else that I might have forgotten, I'll post it later. Happy Holidays!
AMY’S CHRISTMAS LIST FOR 2003:
1. A FLIGHT TO KANSAS (ALREADY TAKEN CARE OF BY MY WONDERFUL SISTER, “LEGS”)
