I just don't know what to do with myself...

Imagine me singing that like Kimmy does in My Best Friend's Wedding! Don't know what I'm talking about?? Watch it on Hulu, for free!! Consider it an early holiday present from me to you! :)

Speaking of presents...

Call me Mr. Grinch!

I've bought zero gifts this year. A big fat zero. $0. Nothing. Nada. Zip.

It's not because I don't want to! I've got people I need to buy gifts for, but here's the problem...

For weeks now, WEEKS, I've tried to go shopping. Each time I go, I can't find anything that screams the recipients name at me.

Another question I've been pondering...what ever happened to the joy of the season and being merry??? Seriously! Why is it that to just get a parking spot, you must first sit in traffic for at least 15 minutes, get cut off by at least 5 other people, get cursed at for letting a car out that had lost all hope of ever getting out of the mall parking lot, and almost getting in about 3 car accidents?? Once you do find a parking spot, you have to run across the street because the "slow, pedestrians crossing" sign suddenly fails to exist or apply. Then, once you get into the mall, you must be pushed at least once per store.

Yeah, I left the mall in tears, without any gifts, running to dodge cars as I crossed the parking lot.

So, instead of using my hard earned money to buy gifts, I gave it all to the Lord today when the collection plate was passed my way. I have no problem giving my money to the work of the Church to teach the world the Truth, especially after my horrid shopping experiences! I'm all for saving some lost souls! Saving souls is what will count on Judgment Day, not worldly gifts.

I have one last free gift from me to you (just an fyi, keep your eyes out for more free gifts these next coming days)...

Go read The Simple Life blog. It will take 2 minutes max to read one post. And I promise you won't regret it!

Ready ... set ... GO!!!

Aw bless your heart! Hearts like that are precious in God's sight. Don't worry, everything will work out because you've sought the kingdom of God and His righteousness, so all these things shall be added unto you (Matt.6:33). Have a wonderful week!
