My Predicament

It's two weeks till Christmas.

I have no time for shopping.

And I only have gifts for the twins under my bed.

I asked Brianna what she wanted for Christmas this morning. She got all serious and said there was one thing she really, really wanted and that it was something she would definitely use. I got all excited. At last a glimmer of hope!!

And then she asked

for A pencil.

YUP. That's my girl.

She said she already had two but she was quickly wearing them out and it would be really, really nice to have a new one.

And how did she manage to nearly wear out two pencils?
In this computer age it certainly isn't from doing school work. 

Nope. Definitely not from writing...

You could do what I do - shop online. My daughter will get hiking socks and a hiking first aid kit from REI.

Specifically, that would be a backpacker's or boater's first aid kit. It's waterproof.

She should get a whole selection of pencils.
