A new car, a Chrysler PT

On the third day of Gift-mas, my godmother gave me: 

Three fed friends

Every night, there are children in America that go to bed hungry. If some of you who read this, would donate to your community food bank, three of those children could be fed.

On the eighth day of Gift-mas, my godmother gave me: 

Eight windmills silking
Wind Power





Some of the advertisements for residential wind power describe them as running "smooth as silk and whisper quiet".

I know "silking" isn't a real word, but have you ever tried to rhyme something with, "Eight maids a-milking"? LOL!

I would love to eliminate my electric bill AND utilize a renewable energy source!

On the ninth day of Gift-mas, my godmother gave me: 

Nine teach financing

I would be so pleased to see everyone support your local school districts and teachers. They are shaping the leaders of tomorrow!
