Yesterday I got back from the mall and thought,
Now I know why I do my Christmas shopping in October! I got shoved, bumped, and tripped. And all I wanted to buy was a pair of fuzzy warm socks...you know the kind? They are microfiber and feel like a scarf on your feet. I bought the confetti ones (they look as good as they feel)!.
When I emerged from the chaos inside the mall, I thought I was home free, except I couldn't find my car (a few hundred more cars moved into all the little slots where I thought my car should have been). I wandered aimlessly pointing my key chain "gizmo" to every white-colored car (do you know how many people have white cars?). As I pointed and clicked, I prayed that somewhere out there, my car's headlights would "wink" back at me. No such luck! I finally had to stop at Starbucks to receive "nourishment" before I continued on my journey!
To help lessen your burden, so you don't get shoved, bumped, tripped or bruised at the shopping mall, I'm offering my holiday gift package to you: Five
FREE books and a Josh Groban CD. I started a
ShoutLife page and all the details are there. So here's what I'm giving away:
Chicken Soup for the Coffee Lover's Soul (strange huh? Soup in your coffee?)
Living The Serenity Prayer by Adams Media
The One Year Life Verse Devotional by Tyndale House
God Allows U-Turns for Women by Bethany House
A Cup of Comfort Devotional For Mothers by Adams Media
CD:
Noel by Josh Groban (if I have the courage to part with it!). Thankfully, it's all wrapped up!
(Just let me know if you want the books autographed!)

Happy "Shopping"!
P.S. I know what I'm asking for Christmas...a GPS device (one for inside the car and the other on my key chain!).
Do you tend to lose things...important things...vital things like car keys? When I'm at home, I have a special place for them and I always know where to find them, but when I'm out and about shopping with a million things on my mind, they tend to wander into different places. But I have to admit, this time I really did it! I mailed my car keys to Harrisonburg, Virginia (by accident of course).
