Show and tell

Things have been CRAZY busy around here! Sounds like most people are that way right now though.

I am here at work for one last half day before the holiday. Should probably be getting some work done, but I needed to get some pictures up so people, maybe one in particular, could leave me alone ;).

On a side note, I dropped they stuff by our sponsored family. The mother just cried the whole time because she was so happy her daughter was going to have a christmas. After spending a little time with her, I am going back on saturday with more stuff, mostly food. She has no car and is recuperating from being hospitalized so she has a hard time getting around right now. I feel sooo fortunate that me and my family have the means to help them a little....

GF and I will be spending the holidays in different places so we already exchanged gifts.

This is the hemp leash i made for her. It took me forever as I was using such a small diameter of hemp twine since her dog is 4.5lbs!





I also bought a necklace she had seen at one of the fair trade stores. The pic is blurry, but it is an image of the world with a peace sign overlaid on top of it. The peace sign is made up of hands. On the back it says 'imagine peace'. For each piece of jewelry sold they plant a tree and the tag it came with can be planted as it is impregnated with flower seeds.
She loves it and hasnt taken it off since I gave it to her.



I also got her truffled salt. If you haven't had popcorn with truffle flavoring, go try it now! And I got her some lotion and body wash of her favorite scent at Bath and body works, eucalyptus spearment.

She got me a new bike!



This is what I got for my mother. A friend did a portrait of my mom's horse. I think she did a pretty kick ass job!



The doggies positioned themselves like this. I could never get them to do that on command. We were in the kitchen. I think they wanted something...



Merry Christmas everyone!
