Second Helping

Round two of the White Elephant parties was not nearly as successful as round one for me in regards to the gift that I received. However, it was more than rewarding for the gift that was given. I put a little bit of thought into gifts. I love to give them. My general rule for a White Elephant gift is to buy one with someone in particular in mind and leave it to chance or their own craftiness to see if they can end up with it. The other option is to give a gift that everyone will enjoy and fight over.

I was glad to see that the chosen recipient ended up with her gift. She also received a legacy re-gift and the responsibility that comes along with it. Assuming that she does her job well, the legacy re-gift will live to see its 10th year at the next Vortex White Elephant party. Thanks to Dave and Holly for hosting.

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, German Chocolate Cake, Peanut Butter, Banana Macadamia Nut and Angel Food Cake.

It seems like it got a little chilly last night. My apartment managed to drop down to 47 degrees. It is a bit harder to get out of bed and get ready when it is on the colder side, but the electric bill, or lack there of, is a site to behold. I'm predicting a bill under 13 dollars for the actual charge this month. It is a good thing since I have other things to save for right now. Friday in the News: In 2005, Playgirl magazine conducted a survey among 2,000 of its readers and came to the conclusion that women actually like their men scruffy, a wee bit chubby, and definitely not metrosexual. According to the survey, 42% said they thought love handles were kind of sexy and 47% approved of chest hair. Only 4% of wome...

A Friend In Need

Image
This weekend was a wonderful weekend for me to catch up with friends. Yesterday, I was able to see my best friend who, though it seems like months on end, I have not seen in a month. It was good to be able to sit down and talk again. Many times there are difficulties in our lives, but it is great to know that we are able to turn to others to ask for help. I'd like to thank her for being my friend through everything because that friendship means so much to me. It looks like this weekend’s rain will leave us for a short time to return again next weekend. Wasn't it great? It seemed like the perfect weather to cleanse and renew after so many months of dry, relentless weather. Three weekends in a row would be fantastic. I am thankful for the rain that we have received. The Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Chocolate Banana (after 7 PM), Peanut Butter (After 7 PM), White Chocolate Raspberry and Vanilla Malt.
