AW'ing Yoda - My Surrogate Christmas Exchange Elf

Hey everybody!  I have to AW out Yoda here for a bit.  I signed up to participate in the Christmas exchange and sent out my gift to my Elf, but never got anything in return.  I mentioned it in a post that Yoda had made and she very kindly decided to be my surrogate Elf!  She is too sweet and I wanted to post what she sent me... she shopped for me after her ET!!  I think it just may be because of me that she's pregnant... all that good karma she brought on herself!  Wink 

I'm going to attempt to post pictures here.  Bear with me if it doesn't come out a good size, I'm not very good at this!  She sent me a cute/funny card and beautiful earrings!  I am very thankful and love that you offered to do this for me, even after you had already sent out a gift to your Elf.  Thanks so much, Yoda!!  You really brightened up my day today, it was a crappy long day at work, and when I checked my door... as I've done every day since we shipped out gifts in early December... there was finally something waiting for me!  Thanks for taking the time to make my day.  Big Smile

    I loooooooove them, they are so pretty!  I love silver/white gold, so good job on that call!  These are going to be my go-to pair of earrings and I will make sure to wear them when I start treatments.  They have to have tons of good luck since you went shopping while your little guy was snuggling in!  I really appreciate you doing this for me.  It's obvious your good karma has already found you.  ;-)

    I have to tell you.  The FUNNIEST thing that happened while I was shopping.  So I am usually able to ward off annoying salespeople with a clipped "Just looking." comment while they're asking me how I'm doing.  But this one lady would NOT go away.  Then she said something useful so I was looking at some items in her store.  As I'm looking she starts asking me questions:

    "So are you buying for yourself?"

    "No."

    "Someone else?"

    "Yes."

    "Does she like jewelery?"

    "I don't know." 

    "What does she usually wear?"

    "I don't know."

    "Does she like silver/white gold/platinum or yellow gold?"

    "I don't know."

    "What is the occasion you're buying for?"

    "A gift exchange?"

     "Coworker or family?"

    "No."

    "Oh."

    "Look, it's hard to explain.  Can we just stop with the 20 questions?"

    She must have been REALLY confused. I did NOT buy anything from her!
