    Well folks, I'm up & moving already. My purring alarm clock just won't let me sleep in! I swear I'm going to throw her out! NOT! She's such a lover girl! Pain in the rear when she gets in her energy spurts, but when she calms down, she becomes this loving kitty. Good thing I don't allow her in my studio! I'd hate to see what she'd do in there!
    I did get a lot accomplished yesterday on the UFO I'm working on. Will probably come close to getting all those circles paper pieced today. Then I have to choose what I'm going to use for the setting background & get them done so I can put the whole thing together. It's a New York beauty of sorts. It'll be interesting, for sure.

    Today's clue: Your area must really like football, as a number of your former residents went on to the NFL.

    I dare say all of us have... and most of us don't even have our packages sent or received yet!

We need to start really narrowing this down as the mailing deadline is fast approaching. What does everyone think? Shall we go with this? Or a later date??
    Your date and time sounds good.

    Now this sounds fun. I hope your SSR does you justice. It intrigues me.

    I am exhausted tonight so I hope to be able to sew tomorrow. We were suppose to go to a city council meeting tonight and it looked like the place would be packed. Since I needed to finish processing some apples, I left my DH at the meeting and walked the 3 blocks home, I don't like to talk at these meetings. I now have 4 Pints of apple sauce and 9 1/2 pints of apple jelly cooling. Tomorrow night I will start to wrap and get my box in order. My SSR will have to read a story as she opens the goodies. It's no fair getting ahead and just ripping everything open. Since I have seen her post pictures on the website I know she has a camera. Just in case I will send some batteries.

    CookyIN and Nessie, thanks for the invitation to jump in, I am very tempted now, I hear you are passing around coconut rum - rum doesn't sit well on my stomach but vodka is ok, so I will bring the coconut vodka and some pineapple juice! Yum. And Nessie, unfortunately I am not your secret Santa but do like that you picked up on the blue, maybe I meant my recipient likes blue? I was trying to throw out a couple of hints without being completely obvious.

    I mailed my SS box out this week or was it last week or was it yesterday oh dear my memory is so fuzzy. But I know I mailed it out. Now the test of my patience begins I can't wait to get my SS box and I can't wait to see if my SS posts that the box was received.

    I love the idea of Dec 8 being the opening day. It will make my birthday all that much more special. I also want to say that this hole is really quite cozy. Kudos to the decorator. I"m dazzled by the number of outlets for equipment. My electric tea kettle keeps me ready to make a pot of Earl Grey tea on demand for anyone who wants it. And there must be magic elves....the mugs magically get cleaned! I could get used to this!

    So if my Ss is listening and needs another idea I want to try embroidery! So any guide or embroidery thread/tools may be a fun easy thing to add in to my ssr, you like musical things.
