white elephant present that was not

We had another cookie decorating party this weekend.  The attendance was a little low but I have to admit that I think everyone had as much if not more fun.  It was a good group.  Something should have told me though that I was not myself when I was in bed after it by 8 pm and slept over twelve hours.  My Beloved came home from work after a closing shift and I roused myself enough to ask how is day was.  That was about it!  This is not normal.

For some odd reason, my work had decided to have a Valentine's Day pizza lunch with a white elephant giveaway.  

On Sunday, I found the energy to make a shopping bag from leftover scraps of two dresses.  Everyone at work should have recognized the fabrics but I figured nobody would.  If it is not computer related, most times things get missed.

I had a feeling the types of gifts were really not going to be me so I was going to try to get this back.  I would have been that selfish.  But instead, I was asleep in bed at home.  Able to keep water in at that point.

But I got to open a lovely package when I went to the library when I was much more human!  It did turn out very nicely.  And I did not have to scheme (smile).
