I am so sorry about the week of no posts! Life has a funny way of never slowing
down. But any who, I am in the midst of Christmas present shopping. We have a
love hate relationship.
Are you looking for the perfect present for
that one person who has everything? Or like my boyfriend whom when you ask what
he’d like for Christmas, simply shrugs his shoulders and says, “I don’t know, I
don’t really need anything.” Ugh!
I have the perfect solution for you! Buy them
a goat, or a bunny or how about some baby chicks?! Absurd you say? Well
technically they wouldn’t be receiving the goat or the bunny or the baby chicks
but rather donate them in their name to a family and community in need. I
absolutely love Plan Canada. It so fun to look through all of the options and
pick out what you’d like to give. Nothing makes me feel better than knowing
that I can share Christmas with someone across the world. It doesn’t stop with
animals either. You can donate wells, fresh water, an education, and lots more.
When participating in charities or donations
it’s really quite important to do your research. Find out how much of your
contributions are really going to the cause. A great website I found is CharityIntelligence Canada. It’s lays it all out. It was a great eye opener!
I hope you are all having fun getting those
Christmas lights and decorations up, I know I am.
Stay tuned for the big reveal! I’ll post some
pictures of my finished desk later tonight! Think vintage, high gloss, deep blue! Ekk!
Here is a little sneak peak |
