Dear Santa,
How are you doing? I hope you and Mrs. Claus and all your pets are well.
I know it's a bit early to be sending you this letter Santa, but I find that my time is a bit limited and without your help I might not be around this Christmas. My owner dropped me off on the side of the road this week and drove off without looking back. At least he left me a bag of food.
So Santa, if you could just bring me a new home with a wonderful family, that would be the best gift I could receive. I'm not even a year old, I'm super friendly, I like people and other animals! Everyone says I'm handsome, I think I might be part labrador or part shepherd. I'm even crate trained! Oh and I love to fetch.
So if you could just forward my picture to all your helpers and let them know that I'm in Newbury, Massachusetts, that would be great. And to help me out, they can call Carol at 978-465-8555 or Kathleen Small at 978-463-5845.
Thanks Santa!
This dog was abandoned on Route 1 in Newbury Mass with just a bag of dog food. He's in a kill-shelter situation with days before he's put down. If you can help, please call one of the numbers above!!

Dear Santa,
I just want to thank you for the wonderful Christmas you have granted me and my family, and I have yet to celebrate Christmas with my Dad and my family on his side, will be doing that tomorrow. But so far I've had the best Christmas ever! I couldn't be any happier. I want to thank you for making this Christmas the best Christmas my boyfriend, Eric has ever had. Though, he still is unemployed but I'm sure he'll find work realy soon, which I know would make him really happy. I am so grateful for everything I got this Christmas, I love the movies I got, the clothes I got, and the mp3 player that replaced the one that fell into pieces, but most of all I really loved the time I spent with everyone. Especially the love of my life, and I could not have been any happier than I am now, that I am with Eric, thanks so super much for sending him my way. I hope you and Mrs. Clause had a great Christmas as well!
Love Always,
Erica

Dear Santa,
Thank you. Thank you for helping me understand the true meaning of Christmas. It took my mom losing her job, my brothers being sent to war, my sister being diagnosed with an irreversible eye disease and me racking up thousands of dollars of debt for me to realize the only meaning of Christmas is love. Even though we've all been screwed over one way or another, we're all together for Christmas and I couldn't be happier. Sure, getting a Coach bag was nice, getting a car was nice, dozens of presents under the tree was nice, but it can't compete with being around my family and feeling the love that is Christmas.
The only other thing I can ask for is to please keep them safe.
Love,
Sarah

Dear Santa,
You know what happened this year. You know that I am trying my best to make the best of it. Please give me a great Christmas full of abundance that will last all year and then some. And if you happen to throw in a gift certificate to the day spa as well, I won't complain.
Thanks.
Laurie
PS And if it does not rain on Christmas so me and my Dad can go to see the Christmas display on Pelham Parkway too. I will not mind that as well.

Dear Santa,
I know this is cutting it very close, but I thought I'd give it a shot for kicks.
Times are hard this year because of the economy, so please, if you have time, see if you can grant me a good, if not decent, Christmas. For nothing to go wrong, for something to go very right, and not be just another Christmas I'll forget in two years.
I'd also appreciate it if you could help me find a set of old tapes I've been missing. I've looked all over the house and can't find them. Where they are, I just don't know, they've been missing since the move. I'd love to watch them again! Please? :)
Yours, Megan

Hello, there. I hope all is well in the frozen north--it's feeling mighty frozen here in California, recently! The laundry detergent keeps turning to slush! Haha, gotta love it! They were predicting snow here last Tuesday, but nothing quite came of that.
My wishes are as follows:
For my (naughty but darling) cat to come to his furry senses and realize that tinsel and ribbons are not kitty treats.
For Mom to not need those crutches anymore. She had knee surgery on Friday, and she's hobbling around on them better than I'd do, that's for sure. But she's got a backup appointment today to see if she'll still need them. Barring that, I'd at least like for her to not be in pain for Christmas. (Very Cindy Brady, I know, but I ♥ Mom.)
For war, poverty, famine, disease, and ignorance to become permanently nonexistent.
For the cost of living to go back to actually being affordable--that goes for gas prices, too!
For my ex to send my stuff back to me, provided he swears never to come near me again.
For my ideal man to find out that I exist (he quite literally does not), and fall head over heels for me.
Yeah, I know. This isn't exactly anything that can fit in a stocking or go under the tree. And some of them are most likely beyond your already amazing capabilities. But my heart's in them.
Well, I'll stop, and give someone else their turn.
By the way, it's funny, in all those specials I see on TV, just how much you sound like Mickey Rooney. Coincidence? ;-D It's quite frankly amazing!
You and your wife, elves, and reindeer are much loved in this house. Take care of yourself, and stay warm during your deliveries! I hope you get lots of nice, warm cookies everywhere--you certainly deserve them! Or some nice candy canes; those = yay!
Merry Christmas! ♥♥♥♥♥
current mood:  I love winter!!!

Dear Santa,
This year I am not going to be asking anything for myself. Like last year, this is about my girlfriend again. This year hasn't been great for her at all. She is having family problems and friend issues. Things had not been the best for her at all. Santa, please let her have an amazing Christmas this year and a much better new year. I hate to see her so hurt and upset. I can't be there for her yet because I'm too young to move down there right now. I will be in 2010, but that seems so far away. Please give her happiness. She has been through so much and is so strong, I think she deserves it. Thank you so much Santa! Have a great Christmas and New Years!

Dear Santa,
Please stop the snow in Portland, Oregon. Bring back the rain. Snow in Portland is... unnatural. It is an abomination! To have over a week's worth of it is indescribably worse. Tell Jack Frost that if he doesn't stop these shenanigans NOW, I am going to find where he lives and suffocate him to death in his sleep with a pair of his own dirty underwear. Then dress his corpse in a pink tutu and lacy pink bra, take pictures, post them to the Internet, and then leave his corpse in the Sahara Desert.
On other notes, please help me and my friend Ginger find jobs. Help the economy. And help get Bush and Cheney impeached, or charged by the UN with war crimes.
That is all I want this year for Giftmas.
Peace;
---Fay

Dear Santa,
This year, I'd really really really like a cure for Hughes Syndrome. And really, I want the wars to stop, the human rights violations to end, but that's probably too much just for you, Santa. It's like Gandhi said, I have to be the change I want to see in the world.
Many milk and cookies!

Dear Santa:
Hello, how are you and your reindeer are doing? I hope they are doing good.
I really hope i can have my sanity and my mind back. Because i feel like my sanity is slowing slipping away from this demon called depression. It stole my sanity and my mind away and i am slowing going insane. I just want to be happy not crying and raging out of control and have your parents tell you that they wish i was never born. So would you mind give me some peace and joy this holiday season.:(
Love:
Me

Greetings! :D (I've always wanted to use that word, hehe.)
Hopefully everyone up there is doing well. I think I've been good this year, or good enough to say I'm on the nice list. I have a feeling some of these things I'd like are not achievable, but I'm going to try wishing for them anyway.
I'm hoping christmas is happy for as many people as possible, that they're with people that care and can find a reason to smile for that one day.
I wish the weather during the christmas holidays isn't freezing cold and that the snow is just right for building things, and not the 50cm that came yesterday and mixed with the wind and was blowing in my eyes. Partly for the sake of you and easy delivery, but also so I can drag my godbrother and the rest of them outside and build a snowman. xD
I want.. Books. Lately I've been obsessing over the Twilight series, The Host, Vampire Knight Manga and Memoirs of a Geisha, so if I do get the actual books or the money for them I'd be extremely happy. :D
Finally, I think I'd like a giant cookie, for the sake of saying "I got a giant cookie" :D
...mmkay. Maybe that's unnessicary, but it'll be funny. :) Hopefully your journey around the world is successful and safe! Thanks x A billion and two for doing that every year, btw :D
I'll leave out one or two of my homemade vanilla cupcakes for you - would you prefer chocolate, vanilla, or cream cheese icing on it?
- from the iffinpinkninja :)
(Hopefully I don't mess up the cupcakes! :o )

Dear Santa,
I just watched your performance in Rudolph. You were fantastic.
I've been a little on edge this year, and was often cranky at my parents when they told me to do something, but everyone deserves a christmas wish. I really dont know what exactly it is I want, but just know i want somehting, and i will be in touch. I work in an afterschool program, and some fourth graders were questioning your existance yesterday. Im very pleased to report that many are still believeing and can hear the bells of your sleigh.
I hope you get your christmas wish, whatever it maybe!
Love,
A Lime
-p.s. sorry i mistakenly called you jesus when i was reading the book to the religious ed class, it was just that his name was also on the page, you understand right?

Hello, Santa!
I think I've been good, at least good enough to justify this list. I'm not asking for a lot. All I really want is to be able to drive out to Maine so we can see my family for the day of Christmas Eve, drive back so Lauren can go to midnight mass with her family, drive to Anne and Nat's to spend Christmas Day with them, and be able to pay my bills. If not on time with the bills, then at least relatively close.
As far as stuff goes, I don't need any. It just takes up space. Though if you insist on getting me something tangible, an enameled cast-iron dutch oven would be nice. Or some red queen sized sheets.
(Oh, and I think this is out of your purview, but if you could Lauren find a job, that would be really great)
I love you, Santa! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
~Kate

Dear Santa;
I wish you were real. Because I think that you're probably the only
person that can give me what I really want for Christmas. And
the fact that you aren't real means that no one can.
But just in case, I'm going to tell you.
I want Kristen to be happy. Pure happiness. I want her to get Pete.
Not in the romantic way, but just as her friend. I know it would mean
the world to her if she could put a smile on his face.
And I want the moon. I want to feel safe again. I want to know that
I'm loved again. Loved in the romantic way. I want to be held, to be
kissed, to be told I'm loved and know that it's meant. I want to believe
in happily ever after again. I want to be able to taste stardust on my
tongue and see the glass as half full.
I want everyone who deserves a happy ending to get one. I want my
mother's back to stop hurting. I want my dad to want to talk to me.
I want my brother to be okay. I want gay people to be able to get
married in America. I want people to look deeper than hair color and
tattoos. I don't want anyone to go hungry. I want someone to find a
cure for AIDS and cancer. I want the war in Iraq to end. I don't want a
child to wake up with a mother or a mother to bury their child.
I want you to be real, for real, this Christmas.

Dear Father Christmas, Santa, St. Nick, et cet,
You know, ever since I was little, all I ever really wanted for Christmas was a puppy. I didn't care what breed, I didn't care if it had three legs and one eye, I didn't even care if it was somewhat mentally retarded and smelt funny, like some of my friends' dogs I could mention. But I never got one. Because my autistic brother was always terrified of dogs...well, you know he's scared of most animals, but primarily dogs. It was always a bit gutting as a kid to have a brother who screams at animals like they're the anti-Christ when you're patting them lovingly on the head, but whatever.
Anyway, I still secretly want one, even though I gave up asking years ago. My brother's not so scared of them these days - in fact, he copes pretty well. If I found a box under the christmas tree with a bundle of paws and fur and a cute little face inside, I think I'd just about cry with delight. But if you offered me a choice between that or a peaceful Christmas this year, I would have to pick the peaceful Christmas.
Yeah, I know. A couple of weeks ago I was asking for a fun Christmas, for my little family to have a genuinely good time just the four of us and enjoy the day. Now I don't care about fun. All I'm asking is that it isn't horrific, like these past few weeks have been. That neither me or my mum have to cry, that nothing else gets broken, that we have a few laughs, maybe. That it's not the worst Christmas of my life, like I've been dreading. Please. It's not that much, is it?
Failing that, I damn well expect a puppy as a consolation prize ;)
Yours hopefully,
- Kelsey xxx

I really don't want a whole lot this year, promise. But I'd really like it if you could help me patch things up with my husband so I don't lose him and a little help in me having a better year in 2009 would be great. This year has been one of the worst in my life and I'd like not to have a repeat for a long time.
Also, please help get the M-I-L that isn't mine out of the house!

I wrote already. But I have something special to ask. Someone I am really close to had cancer last year, and his condition has been good for several months. However, it has taken a turn for the worse. He has a new, extremely aggressive tumor. His doctors are trying some extreme treatments, which they are not all that confident will work. If that doesn't work, they have advised his mother to start looking for hospice care.
I really want my friend to be okay. I know this isn't really something you can do, but I needed to get out there how much I want him to be okay. Thank you.

I have been ever so good this year. I would like not so much something for me as for the planet in general.
