I really thought about who and what to donate to those who need  things.  
This year my gift giving is defintely reduced as I am in the gap  for my medicine.
 
I wanted to give something that would stay close to home.  I learned  that the schools in my town decorate a Cristmas tree in  each school with  hats, mittens, scarves and school supplies.  
 
So last week I sent in a dozen pairs of mittens that I had knitted and loomed.  I knittted more then I loomed.  I made various sizes and  colors and my oldest Grand daughter got to decorate the tree in the  school.

Now  I have started writing, I will tell you what Henry and I did last 
week.   My devision was collecting toys for tots.  I bought a few toys and  
thought to myself, could they use some hats.  I asked the lady in  charge.  She said they were collecting toys, but there was a box in our  cafiteriafor hats being donated to the Red Cross.
Henry made a hat and I  chose 3 out of my inventory.  Together we donated
$70 in hats.  The  manager was very happy to get the hats. It makes you feal good to do something  like that.  Earlier I made 3 hats for my church out of yarn donated to  the church.  I have them keeping an eye out for chuncky yarn, for  me.
