Shopping has just begun bloggers!
The economy goes gift card crazy over the holidays. I only purchased two gift cards for my kids but I borrowed several really cute gift cards, cut them up and made a frame for my desktop computer monitor. I'm always crafting something.
I received like ten different gift cards from my bosses. I used one today at Target and bought me, myself and I, my very own delayed Christmas present. I guess I got it free. I love free. I exchanged a pair of house shoes and used the gift card so I really did not spend too much on my new sweeper. I love my new little red dirt devil. It is really sad that I rushed home, excelling through the yellow lights, grabbed the box and rushed into the house to plug that little devil in. It was sooooooooo cool to see the dirt, dust, dog hair, cat hair, etc, folded into one giant hair ball. That's entertainment!
While shopping for my new little buddy, I received a voice mail from one of the assisted living centers I held a craft show at this Fall, asking me to come and do my book reading for the residents there. I actually have not preformed any readings yet for any age. Yes, I do have stage fright, but I keep thinking of a marketing logo, "Just Do It!". I can talk a blue streak with one or two people but lots of people of all ages sitting and watching every move I make, listening to my kid like voice, thinking, "Gee, she dresses like my mom" something to that effect. Where's the paper sack, starting to hyperventilate? Wait, "Just do it!" I know I can. Be the ball, just shut up and drink it, just do it. I think I can, I think I can........I will.
Be the ball!
