All I want for Christmas…

santaroundChristmas is a great time.  For me it represents a possibility of what ifs.  What if Santa could bring me everything I wanted?  Here’s what I would wish for, for my company, ExtraMD,  and for myself professionally (and a few personal items thrown in!):

  • A second office.  Now that Dear Hubby is entrenched in the upstairs office doing his job search I have moved to the basement, which is cold and dark.
  • Another desk top computer.  I have an Acer Aspire which I love, but I still miss the big screen that’s in the upstairs office.
  • A cell phone plan that doesn’t drop calls every 10 feet. I have AT&T, and it’s making me nuts.  I don’t have an iPhone,  so I’m not wedded to the plan.  Do I want an iPhone?
  • A teenager to come load my mp3 player.  I still can’t remember (did I ever learn?)  how to use the dang thing!
  • An assistant like Miss Moneypenny.  No, I don’t want the fawning adoration, just the efficiency and dedication.
  • Time.  I want to time to spend with patients, thinking about patients, talking about patients and helping patients.  I also want time to work ON my business, not just in it.  I want time to read, read, read, and think, think, think, and then plan, plan, plan.  I want time to enjoy the journey, not just rushing to the next destination.
  • A waterproof watch that is actually water proof.  Simple hand washing has dusted my last 3 Timex ironman watches! Seriously!
  • A guarantee that my knees will be okay if I keep running.  Someday, I would like to do a marathon, but received a stern lecture from my local orthopod–”People like you keep people like me in business!”
  • A chance to be an expedition doctor. 
  • A belief that what I do truly matters.  Isn’t this really what we all are striving for?

What’s on your list?
