No. 17 The joy of being Santa ………
Wednesday, December 17, 2008
Can you imagine how it would feel like to BE Santa? Well, I know I don’t want his waist line …………… but the ability to make so many people so happy, now the jolly fellow is on to something there.
So as we enter this last, busy week before Santa’s big night why not consider being Santa yourself? I’m not thinking of donating to Toys for Tots, working in a Soup Kitchen ………… those are great ways to be Santa…….how about just being a secret Santa? It doesn’t need to be for someone down on their luck, it could be someone who just is a great person! Here are some quick easy ‘Secret Santa’ gifts. You can pick these up in a jiffy, and spend under $10.00!….
- couple of sodas, popcorn & a gift card to rent a movie
- Christmas book, mug & a package of instant cocoa
- iTunes gift card …..package this in a gift box not just a gift card holder
- A journal & some fun pens ……… I like to give those neat gel pens
- Fun funky holiday socks
Books, think about your recipients interests- Wind chime
- Small potted plant………maybe a begonia that will bloom in the gloomy months of January & February!
Remember when you are wrapping up your gifts that presentation is important! Even the smallest gifts look spectacular when wrapped and presented with care! 
So get out there be Santa ………….and go ahead enjoy a cookie and a glass of milk, one won’t kill the waist line! You are bound to smile as you ho, ho, ho…….does anyone know how many calories burn when you smile? Maybe I can afford two cookies?!
