MAIL OUT YOUR BOXES!!!! NOW!!!!! LOL!!

All of the Amaryllis's sound beautiful! I haven't had one in years. I keep meaning to get one, but never seem to get around to it. (I think I SAY that every year, too! :P ) Of course, I don't go shopping much, either, except for groceries..LOL..and that's not the sort of thing they carry at the grocery store! :o)

I received an amazing box from Christan today. Everything was sorted and individually wrapped by letter, and sprinkled with decorative leaves. It can really only be best described by the picture I had to take! That would be Rufus guarding everything. H- hand covering (2 pair gloves) and Hersheys Kisses A- alliums and the book "American Short Stories" R- red ruler and really big post-its V- vanilla sugar scented lotion and hand soap...

Love hearing about everyones' plans for turkey day. April and Bunny, I hope things work out well for your family members who are ailing. Is anybody doing anything in the garden now? I have to dig some bulbs that won't be happy if it freezes. Raking leaves is a priority, too. I just got home from taking a mortgage rep out to dinner. Have to tune in to Project Runway. I think tonight is the finale. Later, Dottie

Good morning all! Well since my daughter came down with the horrible stomach bug going around...not the piggy flu...thank goodness! We had her tested................... I am suppose to be cooking and having 12 people over. I am crossing my fingers she'll feel better by this weekend and I can disinfect the whole house. I have been running like a maniac since Tuesday morning. Lysol in one hand and disinfectant wipes in another.LOL! It...

Dottie, I don't blame you one bit. During the summer, I spend quite a few days moving slowly and staying in my pj's way late. It really is neat to hear everyone's traditions. Last year we had my two brothers and their families and my mom, but this year they are doing things with other parts of their families. I don't mind quiet. I feel less guilty when I pass out later in a turkey coma! :P

April, you made me chuckle when you talk about the cold. I am not a lover of the colder temps but couldn't imagine living in a climate where there is never any snow. I think I will feel differently in about 10 years. LOL I will admit I don't go out much when the temps get down real low. I lived in St. Clair Shores which is north of Detroit. My biggest problem with that area is the traffic. I much prefer small town now that I live...

These H A R V E S T boxes are wonderful! April, once again, great idea for this swap. THANKS! Annie

I am so glad you liked the box Annie! I had fun doing it! I am like you Melissa! Wasn't aware so many here have been affected by breast cancer! It is definitely not always a death sentence, but for me and my family it has been a long nightmare! 13 members have passed with breast cancer or cancer secondary to breast cancer. Remy, congrats!! You are almost a 5 year survivor!! I have been around awhile here and had no idea! I hope everyone...

April, I got more numbers this time though they are all over the place, lol. You know I'm on facebook. I joined since I had old college friends looking for me. If you have far away friends and family. It is great. Margo, Lol! The box came yesterday : ) I did forget to list Santa Socks also. One of my doggies grabbed them! I caught them before the socks were damaged. Dottie, No, I've never had anything happen with the rose thorns. I...
