There are the years when you know your friend is on a budget, so you buy her something accordingly (as to not hurt her budgeted feelings)Then the next year, you happen to be on a budget, and hope that your friend still is , but Noooooo, her husband switched jobs and she bought you a white gold necklace engraved with a Friendship Quote from Red Envelope, and you bought her slipper socks and a Starbucks card. I feel you on this one MOV. Great post as usual! Always love your endings ;) Maybe you can re-gift the cards to the new renters/owners if you ever move.

...On behalf of everybody, we are all doing great. <br /><br />And how are you, might we ask? It is good to see you again. Since you're a regular visitor and all.<br /><br />You know, I was sitting here, trying to think of the right thing to say about this post (that was written by our favorite blogger, MOV, whom we visit regularly)... something that would truly capture the essence of why this post was as incredible as it was... but I couldn't quite come up with the words that would do it justice.<br /><br />And as I was trying to come up with something, I glanced up at your comment and saw that you had captured my thoughts completely and commented so eloquently, that no more words were needed... that you had said everything that needed to be said.<br /><br />For this post posted at this site <i>truly is</i> pleasant. You're as right as you are general.<br /><br />Couldn't have said it better myself.<br /><br />It is also great to see that you are still as confident as ever in your coin business, despite the fact that there must be no money coming your way (Do you see what I did there? Sorry, old friend. You know how I kid around!). <br /><br />Where were we?<br /><br />Oh yes! Your business. All kidding aside, you're way ahead of your time and we all (all of us) know that it is just a matter of time before your painted swamp star coins just <i>take off</i>! Whether they are coins from swamps that have stars on them or coins from stars that have pictures of swamps on them, all that matters is that they are painted. Once you get your hands on those painted coins, it's like printing money! (Do you see what I did there, again?)<br /><br />Again, great to see that you're still feeling good enough about your business to continue sharing the link to your webpage, like a gentle nudge to remind us that you're still around. Kicking.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by again, Nony.Youngman Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08336401937507133453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8936630222019897817.post-64064370899366827682012-12-27T21:23:20.561-05:002012-12-27T21:23:20.561-05:00Well now that I know what your house looks like I ...Well now that I know what your house looks like I can drive up and down every street until I find you.

It is hard to know what the best gift will be; I've been on both ends; gave good ones, got good ones on years I gave "less than adequate ones" and this year when I got gifts from people I didn't buy for. I think it takes art to say "thanks" for the best gift and not have to justify our gifts given or no gift given, but just to be grateful for the fact someone thought somewhat highly of us to get us something. Make sense? And the good thing is you have 364 days to look for that perfect gift for next year!<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8936630222019897817.post-85162073999282886762012-12-26T16:37:15.811-05:002012-12-26T16:37:15.811-05:00The card is amazing!

You have great friends!<br /><br />I actually bought gift cards this year(and cards to go with them) and then didn't give them because I am so tired of people getting embarrassed because they didn't get me anything (which they don't. That way we are all happy.

I hate it because a gift is supposed to be about the gesture and not about the gift. I hate that you felt bad. Your gesture to give a friend a gift is of equal "gesturing" as your friend. The cards are cute for sure but you didn't give her a lump of coal or something. I am sure she was sincerely appreciative of your thoughtfulness. <br /><br />Cperzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09062444081488414888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8936630222019897817.post-3506695814538621862012-12-26T11:42:15.205-05:002012-12-26T11:42:15.205-05:00Ugh, I hate it when the other person's gift is...Ugh, I hate it when the other person's gift is way, way better.
