the perfect gift
Filed Under journal | 4 Comments
You know those people who are really good at finding the perfect gift? Perhaps you are even one of those people…
You know what I mean. The person who thinks of something really creative and unique that delights and suits the person wonderfully. These people don’t seem to need any help, either. No hints. No suggestions. No lists. Just the perfect gift.
I am not one of these people. I stress out. I worry. I draw a blank. And then when I do come up with a fabulous idea, it’s usually 2 minutes before I have to have the gift all ready to go…
Where does one learn the art of giving the perfect gift? Do tell.

Ask Jenni. She’s the perfect person at finding the perfect gift.
thanks, miguel. those were the days… when my secret was TIME. time is the secret. i fear i’m becoming one of those gift certificate people, but i’m hoping that will clear up when i get outta corporate america next year. maybe by then you’ll be back in the bay, ali, and we can go shopping together!
Yeah, just wandering through a store with someone in mind usually works for me. I had decidedly less wander time this year, though, so my gift choices were not inspired. These things, they happen…
Ah Time. Yes. That must be my obstacle…
‘Cause I wait ’til it is way too late.
*Michael ~ so glad you said something here.
*Jenni ~ I remember when we used to do some shopping together!
*Robert ~ Thank you for the Christmas card! That’s something else I used to do when I had more time.
Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas!!
