Finished.

HALLELUJAH!!!!

I am done with my master's program.

Gift Idea: King Singers

This one is a gift idea in memory of Nathan who sang this for the Mr. 91st ward pageant!! Anyone remember that splendid event :-)?

On a serious note - these guys are a-mazing! If you want to have some great Christmas or anytime music look for the King Singers on iTunes - or if you're lucky maybe they'll be coming to visit a city near you!!

A gift appropriate for Sunday

Forgiveness.

One word that takes no money,

but,

it requires letting go of being right,

it requires letting go of being angry,

it requires expecting nothing in return.

It requires a lot of effort,

including prayer,

to a very willing Heavenly Father.

The gift of

forgiveness

is really a gift to three.

You.

The one you forgive.

Your Heavenly Father.

"Forgiveness is the economy of the heart...

forgiveness saves the expense of anger,

the cost of hatred,

the waste of spirits."

Hannah More

"He that cannot forgive others

breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself;

for every man has need to be forgiven."
Thomas Fuller

For the Gents in your life...the Ladies as well

Looking for a nifty gift for your mister?

Check out the spiffy tie-tacks from Emersonmade.com.

They are handmade, 100% wool and linen.

Check out the gorgeous flowers for the Misses as well.

Best Socks in the World goes too.....

Today's gift idea is....

SmartWool Socks.

Don't be fooled by any other name.

Expensive? Yes.

Worth it? Most definitely.

Even if your feet sweat a lot

they won't get cold.

They won't get too hot either.

Your feet stay the "just right temperature"

in these beauties.

They are for all seasons.

You can get them for men/women/children/pets

(okay, maybe not pets)

and they come in all colors, styles, lengths and thicknesses.

I have running socks, skiing socks, ankle socks,

mid calf socks, socks for slacks, and socks for jeans.

Truly, once you go for SmartWool

you will never want anything else.

Too bad they don't make SmartWool nylons...

I *heart* SmartWool socks.

Where you can buy them:

Things and 1 gift idea

Sad news first...

I did not get the library job I applied for in Missoula.

Sad or relieved...

I think I feel both.

Next,

my gift giving lists are coming few and far between

thanks to homework

(only 1 week left of school!!!

then I will be a Master....of Libraries).

So,

instead I am gong to try and post one gift idea daily.

Here's number one....

Michael Buble - Crazy Love CD

FAN-TASTIC!!

His voice could melt steel let alone butter.

It's clean, fun, romantic, and smooth!

(Some friends and I at his concert a few weeks back)
