My partner and I have been in touch and I'm starting mine today since I finished the last "family" gift that needs to get shipped out this week. I'm paranoid about mailing too late since my package to my mom was delayed by almost a week because UPS underestimated the amount of staffing that they needed and were overwhelmed by the flood of packages coming through the system. Mom finally got her box of gifts on the 23rd, and I was sweating bullets the whole time!! This year I am mailing very early to avoid the rush!! And I hope to have my mini done and ready to go by this coming Friday!!
