Taking off my mittens to push buttons on my iPod is tricky to do while running. I almost fell on ice the last time I tried it :D Alternately, I could just, like, not put sucky songs on my iPod.

That approach to holiday gifts seems so much more meaningful. If it's handmade, you aren't going to complain that it was the wrong brand or particular variety. I hope so, April.

A friend of mine told me that last year at their departmental gift exchange, the hot gift that they all wanted was a crocheted afghan handmade by one of the ladies. Several years ago, my husband lost his sister to liver failure and since that time, we donate what we would have used toward her gift to charity. I'd like to see everyone do that for the loved ones that they've lost. Do you think the pendulum will swing the other way and we will start making our special gifts again?
