    Me too. Start an idea, end with a gift.

    All the handmade gifts are so cute! Unfortunately, my handmade will not get done. I haven’t been here in several days because I’ve pretty much been asleep most of the time from all the drugs they have been giving me. I want to thank everyone for their well wishes regarding my eye and wish the best to others who are having their own problems right now.

    It is still way too early to know what is going to happen with the eye. I’m seeing the doctor everyday and his main recommendation right now is to stay as quiet as I can and give the swelling time to go down. The good news is now I can see light and some movement.

    I will check back here as often as I can. My SS package is complete and a friend is going to come over this week and help me pack it up and get it in the mail.

    I feel so lucky to be part of this board!

    {{{{{{{{ June }}}}}}} I'm sure your Secret Santee will be more than happy, with whatever is in her gift box. You just take care of yourself and rest. If you're able to stumble down to the Hole, we'll find you a nice lounge chair in the corner, where it's peaceful and quiet. Since you're taking pain meds, we can fix you a nice pot of hot tea or cocoa. Feel better!

    June, sometimes staying still and quiet is the hardest thing to do, isn't it? Just picture yourself down in the hole amongst your quilty friends, taking it easy like the doctor ordered. Neesie's right -- there's no pressure to include a handmade gift in your SS package, so don't fret.
