2019 Ornament Swap!

[mpizzazz]

My ornaments are done, my cards are done, they will be on their way as soon as Kathryn's cards arrive. I'm not pressing my luck with the Post Office. Had 8 packages to mail on Saturday and was first in line. The line that formed did not look pleased!

To heck with them if they can't take a joke!

Seriously, tis the season. Lines are to be expected this time of year. I look at them as an opportunity to chat with people and spread some good cheer.

Received Pam's cute ornament today. Great idea and one I wish I'd thought of doing.

Pam,
What a terrific idea for an ornament!
We could probably all do a crafty tree
with our wood mounted Christmas stamps.
I could probably do about 6, myself

I’m so happy you like them! Joel said “they can take all the crap off and use them”.

[pbp908]

Tell him we'd much rather add another ornament than another stamp!

I got Pam C's ornament today! Fun idea to use a stamp!!

And I got Elizabeth's too! Those are gorgeous!!

Thank you both! We're all going to have beautiful trees this year!!

I am feverishly working on my ornaments. I am late...my apologies. I like my design but it’s a bit labor intensive. Dopey me. But my Gemini Jr is a champion thank goodness.

Farley - don’t stress. We’ve all been there.

What Pam said. It's not even December yet, so you're good!

[troublesmom]

No worry! Stress is not what we want you to have.

Farley - don’t stress. We’ve all been there.

I really appreciate you all saying that. Thanksgiving dinner is here on Wednesday with all kids and grandkids. So another feverish thing I am preparing for. Got 95% of my shopping done this afternoon so I can start doing all do-ahead work Monday and Tuesday. Tonight I will take another stab at them.

[paddlegal]

My ornaments will be in the post by tomorrow. Again sorry for the delay.

[pbp908]

No worries, Farley. I don't even have my tree up yet, and I'm sure that those who already do can find a branch!

I'm thinking that I might use one of the small trees for my PAO ornaments - a friendship tree.

That's a cool idea, Pam!

Farley, no worries on your ornaments going out this week. I arbitrarily picked a date months ago, purely based on how crazy it can get in December, so don't sweat it!
