I’ve been putting this off for a while now and wanting to get it “just right”. Well, now, to procrastinate doing some online shopping I’m writing. Sound familiar to anyone out there?
I named this spot Sarah-M-Dipity to nod to my name, but also serendipity. What I found when searching on www.dictionary.com was ser·en·dip·i·ty [ser-uh
n-dip-i-tee] –noun
| 1. | an aptitude for making desirable discoveries by accident. |
| 2. | good fortune; luck: the serendipity of getting the first job she applied for. |
Having been very fortunate thus far, it seemed fitting to name it such.
While just trying to buy Christmas gift cards for folks I came across some info about how not to get “taken” when buying cards.

One more site I stumbled upon is one that truly values the gift of giving and not consumerism run amok. Gifts like training a midwife are available.
