All I Want 4 Christmas...
I'm a simple man really. I don't need much and these days I expect even less. I find that it minimalizes the potential for disappointment and maximizes square footage!I don't have much to recycle or toss in the bin after opening Christmas gifts. Sketch pads and pencils ruled the day. I fought an urge to protest a gift but it turns out that I needed it more than I thought.
The thing that made my day though was a simple gift card. Initially, I was thinking that in order to put it to good use, I would have to go shopping...and maybe somewhere I didn't want to. The gift card giver lives on the other coast so I thought that it was purchased at some chain store or restaurant with the assumption that the chain was 3,000 miles long.
To my surprise, the card was for a local establishment, and one that I frequently patronize!
That means the card giver had to do a bit of detective work and that the card had to travel 6,000 miles to get right back to where it started!
The card giver is clever and thoughtful...and my sister. If I could rewind the clock, I think I would ask Santa for just one thing...to be more like her.

Fay. I hope that is true! Then again, being more like her could mean implants.
A very nice gesture...for sure...
