I just got in a little while ago. It was a day for a hair appointment, & some Christmas shopping too. For me anyway, it's always a challenge, to choose just the right gift. It seems that the expectations in regards to this season of gift giving, may have been simple when individuals actually handmade what it was that they were giving. To this day many of the tree ornaments that continue to be our favorites, were handmade by our children when they were growing up.
And as far as shopping goes, one of my most favorite places to gift shop is Ten Thousand Villages. Ten Thousand Villages features handmade crafts, purchased from around the world, at fair trade prices. So when we shop at a TTV store, we are truly helping raise the standard of living for the developing countries of where the craft was made, one Village at a time.
Today's poem, addresses the day as it unfolded, both in real time & in anticipation of Christmas.
Working My List
a
care
free
day
of
my
hair
care,
in
the
hood,
windy
sunny
Christmas
shopping
talking
choosing
hopeful
thoughts
for you,
that's
right
three
more
days
till
Christmas,
night
