I agree with Cindy -- Dec 8th at 3pm is good for me. Let the fun begin! Stitch124

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??

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.
Oh, just jump into the hole! You know you're gonna end up here, sooner or later.
It's to your advantage, to join while there's still plenty of goodies to eat and drink. 
Originally, the coconut rum was intended as just a splash, in a cup of hot cocoa. As the bottle got passed around, it ended up in coffee, over ice . . . and I suspect a few just took a swig, from the bottle. Mind you this is a very large bottle, being passed! Coconut vodka is sure to be a big hit, as well. We also have non-alcoholic beverages, in abundance!

Giant pangs of guilt here. I signed up and await shipping for gifts for my SS person before I put her box together. The thread here is HUGE and I have not begun to comb through it.
About me, well my partner could look at my blog here. I am pretty much an old hippie. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats who keep me busy dreaming up ways to re-purpose animal hair. I have 5 sons ages 28,27,22,20, and 16 with the two youngest living with me still (I am pretty sure these two are the new Second Hand Lions.) I am the brain and gopher behind my husband's home repair business which ebbs and flows...think more toward the ebb side.)
I have several hobbies and usually have at least 10 going at once and none finished! No sooner do I finish a project I am starting another. I have ADD and focus is a huge challenge. Keeping lots of things going keeps me out of trouble!
I am 53 years old and still peri meno. NOT FAIR, who still has pimples, wrinkles, AND chin hair?
Hints for my SS partner:
Your state begins with the letter M
Good Grief! (yes, that IS a hint)

Sew_Tracy - Minnesota! Charles Schultz is from here and we love all things Charlie Brown. In fact, my 9-year old stepdaughter insisted on dressing up in Charlie Brown's ghost costume (remember he had trouble with the scissors so lots of holes!) for Halloween. She even spraypainted a bunch of styrofoam as her rocks so they're light enough to carry around with her ("I got a rock...")... We created her costume masterpiece over the weekend while watching the Great Pumpkin.
