Have you ever wanted to buy a present for a male simply as a thank you?
Let me start at the beginning. Things had not been going well for me recently. It was nothing serious, it’s just that I had a little tension in my life. I hadn’t been sleeping well. On this night, I couldn’t seem to get to sleep. Everytime I closed my eyes, a hundred things started racing through my head. I finally decided to just get up, move to the den and watch TV for a while. I finally fell asleep on the sofa and must have slept like a baby. When I awakened, it was 7:30–an hour past my wake-up time. I could vaguely hear my clock radio upstairs in my bedroom. I had to get ready for work and get there fast!
I struggled off the sofa, took a short shower, tossed on the clothes that I had put out the night before, grabbed what I needed and ran out the door. Unfortunately, the night before I had to park my car almost a block way. Try sprinting in heels sometime! I took a quick look at my watch to see that I was only going to be about half an hour late. I had managed to make up for some of my missing time already. I felt a little relieved until…I got to my car and discovered that my purse did not contain my keys. I remembered that those keys were now resting comfortably inside my locked townhouse. My house key was safely on that same keychain! I was not a happy woman.
Coincidentally, my next-door neighbor was just coming home from his night-shift job, parking in an open curb space across the street. As he got out of his car, with a fast-food paper bag containing his breakfast and a cup of coffee in his hand, I all but tackled him as I ran across the street to tell him my problem. I know he felt sorry for me because he immediately helped me into the passenger side of his vehicle, exited his prime parking space and went on to drive me to my office. Not only did he get me to work on time, but he insisted I eat the breakfast sandwich he had purchased, assuring me that he could stop by the drive-thru again for another one on his return back home.
Because of this considerate neighbor, I was able to get to work on time and make my presentation without my stomach growling. I wanted to give my neighbor something as a token of my appreciation and settled on a key chain. Not just ANY key chain, mind you, but an Italian Charm Key Chain.
Italian charms are interchangeable links that can be arranged in any order and come in a huge variety of choices: sports team charms, NASCAR charms, and patriotic charms to name a few. These attractive links are stylish for both females AND males. I chose a Italian charm key chain with links representing a couple of his favorite sports teams, because he is a big fan of Boston area teams. He couldn’t have been happier with it! Giving my neighbor an Italian charm key chain was a great thank-you gift for such a thoughtful man.
That terrific neighbor picked me up from work that day and contacted a locksmith to be at my home. He now keeps a spare key to my place on that new Italian charm key chain. It’s a strictly platonic arrangement!
