Great gift Ideas

Hi everyone, well we had a busy Thanksgiving, as most of you know we are working in another city on a rental house, so we have been traveling over on the weekends and home Tuesday through Thursday. We had Thanksgiving here, and it was nice to be able to relax. Spencer went to Las Vegas with his Flitton side and enjoyed a family reunion. I came across an article with some unique gift ideas and thought I would share.

What's on Your Shopping List?

If your looking for great gift ideas...
THE GIFT OF LISTENING: but, you must really listen. NO interrupting, no daydreaming, no planning your response. Just Listen.
THE GIFT OF AFFECTION: Be generous with appropriate hugs, kisses, pats on the back and handholds. Let these small actions demonstrate the love you have for family and friends.
THE GIFT OF LAUGHTER: Clip cartoons. Share articles and funny stories. Your gift will say, :I love to laugh with you!"
THE GIFT OF A WRITTEN NOTE: It can be a simple thanks for the help note or a full sonnet. A brief, handwritten note may be remembered for a lifetime, and may even change a life.
THE GIFT OF A COMPLIMENT: a simple and sincere "you look great in red", "you did a super job" or "that was a wonderful meal" can make someone's day.
THE GIFT OF A FAVOR: Every day, go out of your way to do something
kind.
THE GIFT OF SOLITUDE: There are times when we want nothing more than to be left alone. Be sensitive to those times and give this gift to others.
THE GIFT OF A CHEERFUL DISPOSITION: The easiest way to feel good is to extend a kind work to someone. It's not that hard to smile and say , "hello" or "thank you"
