Gifts & Happy Holidays!

Whew, haven't been here for years. Before I knew it, it's 2007.

But before that, got no work for 12 days consecutively, how bout that, wohoo!

When I was a kid, holidays is all about the excitement and the tree and the presents and trying to stay up to catch Santa in the act, and waking up far too early for your parents' comfort

With regards to Christmas and getting presents, thanks for all those gifts I received from friends & workmates.

Yeah, it's the thought that really counts.

Excelsior Spa & Let's Face It GC's.

Egg bag, celfone pouch & belt.

Desktop calculator, body shop body butter & Jessica Zafra's Twisted 7 book, foodies, pens & cash.

Personalized magnet holder, funky earrings, jasmine & amber incense sticks.

But all those are just material things.

Why not for this season, hold up a candle to everyone, with the warm scent wafting and you'll say invitingly & cozily, "Happy Holidays!"
