Things I know for sure: 6

Wish lists are fun to make.

That's why I don't care that my husband never has any clue about what to give me when he is attempting to give me a gift for my birthday. I know, without fail he will ask me to make a list, and he knows without fail, I will respond with totally unpractical gifts listed like:

A cure for diabetes,
For Charlie Sheen to go away and leave the world alone,
A winning lottery ticket,
For children the happily skip off to their beds when asked.
An invisibility cloak,
And a magic pill for instant weight loss.

Sometimes I make more tangible, but still unrealistic wishlists like:

Two of these:
HOVÅS Chair brown Width: 41 3/4 " Depth: 43 1/4 " Height: 35 " Seat depth: 23 5/8 " Seat height: 18 1/8 "  Width: 106 cm Depth: 110 cm Height: 89 cm Seat depth: 60 cm Seat height: 46 cm
or something like this for my backyard:

Radiance 7-pc Dining Collection by Broyhill® Outdoor

Or that ever illusive item always topping my list:

Canon EOS Rebel T1i  Gadget Bag, Mini HDMI Cable &  4GB SD Card  3.4 Frames Per Second

I make these lists every year, but he knows and I know that I am overjoyed with 
A babysitter, 
A good meal at a good restaurant, 
A movie, (on the occassion they don't all suck)
And a few good books.

We are creatures of habit, my husband and I. And I wouldn't have it any other way. I know that for sure.
