Dec
your two days.
Man oh Man…GT is pooped. I’ve done enough linking to turn my eyes cross. It’s all good though cause it’s better than getting a pair of Governor hands caught in a “Senate Seat for Sale” cookie jar…Ha! Folks…some people have more nerve than a toothache. Anyshiestyway…shouts and *finger snaps* to Shannon Riffe, Simone, TJ, First Lady, Alicia/Instant Vintage, Jaye, Harlem Chic,
Tatum, Jazzy, Naturally Alise and newbies Chocolate Orchid, B, Bohemian Bookworm, Sister L, OMG, Glennisha, This Time Now, Mama’s got Moxie and last but not least…Feliz...you moved GT’s heart:
“Can I just say…I’m thankful for you & your blog. It’s not often that I come across a blog that sings to my eyes and put wings on my heart, thoughts, and creative side. Thank you for inspirational pictures, the good natured and down-to-earth feel of it all.”
That was the quote of the week right there. And I didn’t forget this week’s giveaway. It’s a Burt’s Bee’s Healthy Hands kit and it will go to the person that types writes about which post they loved this week and why. Simple enough. The winner will be chosen on Monday.
Here’s a recap of Get Togetha highlights:
- No Cost Gifts.
- Bad Gifting.
- Dress up your work environment.
- *Must Read -Shannon Riffe of Rifferaff and her beautiful graphic designs.

Shouts out to you GT!!!!
The post I LOVED this week was …drum roll…. “No Cost Gifting!” This post absolutely is my favorite becuase (2 reasons) 1.) too often we forget the reason for the Season and we focus wayyyyy to much on working the OT to buy gifts that may or may not say I love you like a simple move of your heart and lips. You can BUY anything, LOVE is PRICELESS!!!! and 2.) You are so Calm, cool, and collective. Where some of us may have lashed out or snapped, you expressed compassion and understanding and stayed free of any negativity and I appreciate that so much becuase not only does that mean you are TOO COOL to let anything affect who you are, BUT it means you don’t just preach it, you walk in it. YOU BETTA SAY DAT!
I wish ALL your “bloglets” the best weekend ….

I loved your Bad Bad Gift post. It made me scream with laughter. My boyfriend is THE worst gift giver on the planet; so yes gift giving is a skill. I tell him what to buy me now; I don’t want to risk being PO’d. He’s a lovable puppy but dang he’s wack in gift giving area…trust…I’ve been forwarding him your ideas…
Have a great weekend and thanks for the shout…you are truly an amazing writer!

*Waves to GT*
Hey GT…I loved the post you did on having a home office haven. It made me think about rearranging some stuff around for the new year.
Have a happy two days!

I know that I missed the giveaway but I liked the kwanzaa gift post the best. It had lots of great ideas with just a little dash of humor.
