This year I signed up for the Secret Santa gift exchange sponsored by Georgie and Amy over at Decisionally Challenged one of my most favorite blogs. I held off from joining until Georgie invited me so what the heck I went for it. It looked to be almost all women, which is not a problem for me. I like women, I love hanging around with them. I think they are great and have always gotten along well with them. I like hanging around with guys also but women just add that little extra zing to things. Especially my wife Sweetie, she puts the Z in zing.
Anyways after I signed up then the anxiety starts. What am I going to buy for the exchange? I’m just no good at picking out scented candles and other smelly items or useless little soaps and stuff like that. The person I’m going to buy for is going to be so disappointed in rolls of camo duct tape, tshirts, fishing cap led lights and stuff like that. Luckily I got paired with somebody who would I think appreciate stuff like that. She was very gracious about it when she blogged about it. The stuff probably ended up in a dirty santa exchange but hey that’s life.
So, then I waited for my little soaps, pot pourri, and candles, maybe a book mark or a bodice ripper romance novel. Hey, I was ready for anything and then Sweetie called me and said my Secret Santa gift had arrived. I got home and sure enough I had a package waiting for me.
I opened it up and guess what?
It is a Guppie Multi-Tool!
Its has a knife, a multi-bit screw driver, wrench, flashlight, and a beer bottle opener.
This tool is going to get used a lot. It’ll be perfect for repairing geocaches and stuff around the house and office. I’m going to carry it wherever I go. It’s wonderful.
Thank you Secret Santa. Your gift is very thoughtful and generous. I appreciate it very much.
Thank you Georgie and Amy.
Can I joing again next year?
Yogi I am dying laughing at your intro and how much you like women you are soooo funny!
Now, that tool that your sss partner sent you is totally awesome-where could i find one of those for my husband?
I am so glad you participated this year and next yr will be a tad bit different BUt YES you will be invited
Yay! 🙂 Such an awesome gift!! 🙂 ANd I loved your duct taped gift as well. Fun times, this secret santa exchange is I tell ya!
Hmmm, well that puts a completely different spin on things. Oh sorry, just thinking out loud. Cool gift ya got there, is there chocolate on there somewhere?
That is way cool! I would rather have that than some ‘womanly’ gift!
Yes, I serious!
Sunny 🙂
This is awesome – I didn’t even know this existed. Great gift!
Cool! You obviously drew a kindred spirit for your secret santa.
The lucky recipient of the camo box and twilight wear has slept in the tshirt many a night (mostly to freak out the Doc) and even wore the shirt to see the movie. Just so you know.
That tool is really awesome. Seriously – where do you get them??
If I had been your SSS friend you would have gotten a Snuggie.
Neat little tool…I think I need to find one!
… especially the beer bottle opener? 🙂
@Georgie with 2 hearts – I cannot wait. I’m hoping that urban camo tape will be available by then.
@Crazee Juls – This is fun isn’t it.
@Megryansmom – nope, no chocolate. We have lots of sweets around here anyway.
@Sunny – I am not surprised that you would want a guppie.
@Kaylen – oh yes this gift is awesome.
@Aunt B – The recipient is sleeping in the tshirt? Sweetie is going to smack me if she finds out I gifted lingerie to somebody. Is the recipient keeping the box and has she used her cap lights yet?
@Sparkette – just Google “Guppie” you can get them all over the place.
@Dirkjogt – yes and it works very well.
That is stinking awesome! Thanks for playing with us girls!
What a nifty little doodad!! I’d like one for my purse!
I’m glad you participated in SSS this year! Wasn’t it fun?!?!
awww thats pretty interesting 🙂 my hubby will definitely love that!

What a great little tool!
Fun post and I love your cool gift. My son would love one of those too.
I cld use one of that here!
such a wonderful tool. i don’t think i’ve seen anything like that before.
It doesn’t seem very secret to me. Someone obviously fixed it as they know you are a man and gave you a man’s toy. LOL
