Ah, everyone has their little wish lists now don't we? Since mine is about a mile long, I've shortened it to merely the top 10 things I want instead of the top 50. Where shall I begin?

1. A helpful, tidy and supportive husband. I have a husband you see, but he isn't very tidy (farmer/blocklayer) and he's only selectively helpful (very infrequently). Ideally he'd have my back and pick up after himself and not disagree about things related to the kids- Like that'll ever happen!

2. A big bank account that never ends. With this, I could pay off the house, put the kids through school and have enough over to build a lavish equine facility with indoor arena and on-site riding instructor. I'd take on a few boarders for kicks and company and of course I'd have to buy a new truck and horse trailer to travel to competitions in style. Not my  husband's old, dented up, on it's last legs, pick up (which for now we are fortunate to have.)

3. Since number one is impossible, I'm going to need a very handsome stable boy/cowboy/horse trainer at my newly built equine facility. He'd have to be ruggedly handsome (which is great for business) and very respectful to both women and horses. We may or may not have a secret fling together and may or may not run away together (haha yeah right, like THAT's gonna happen!) Since this entire list is not possible I figured I'd go all out on the imagination factor.

4. This should actually be number one, but I'm not changing it now: A reliable, careful and kind, on site baby sitter for my three rambunctious and very young children. Sometimes a mama just needs a break to go horseback riding, get housework done or to just go out and party with her friends on occasion. Having someone I can trust my kids with would allow me freedom to live the kind of life I want and be more happier when I am around my kids as result.

 5. A reliable farm sitter. We'd need a trusted person to watch over the lavish equine facility as well as the actual cattle farm my husband has so that we could all take a family vacation perhaps to Disney (haha yeah right, like I can ever pry him off the farm!)

6. Scratch that, I'll need the baby sitter to come and I'll go to Florida with the hot cowboy.

7. A better economy. Surprisingly, I do think of more than horses. I'd use some of the millions I have to bring jobs back to the USA. From now on everything you find at Walmart will be made here, in America! We'd also raise tariffs on imported goods so prices are fair.

8. A private ballroom dance instructor who is very attractive. We may compete in some dancing shows from time to time, that is if I'm not too busy with the cowboy and evading my husband (seriously, this isn't going to happen).

9. World Peace (figured I'd toss it in).

10. A personal chef, house cleaner and massage therapist to be at my lovely estate and tend to my family as needed.

Hope you all got a giggle out of this, it's my imagination in overdrive!
