More Gift Ideas and A Peenie Quote

Peenie was checked into the hospital this morning, friends. Shortness of breath due to her congestive heart failure. Turns out the little nut has been "picking and choosing" with her meds...not good. But we caught it, we're on it, and it looks like they'll release her from the hospital tomorrow or Sunday. She's feeling feisty, too AND she downed a whole Chik-Fil-A milkshake--both good signs! I'll keep you updated, you keep Peenie in your prayers! We want to keep the little nut around for as long as we can!

And now (drumroll please), some gift ideas for the ladies! Or, in other words, things that I'd like to have! Hey, no problem with that, right? To tweak a common phrase, "Gift others as you would have them gift you!"

As promised, they're all under $50. Hope you like the suggestions!

I'll leave you with this:

...a funny/scary thing that Peenie said to me this week, after I told her that she really should get a hearing aid:

"Katy, some man is going to put you in a straight jacket someday. And ELECTROCUTE you!"
