I have my ornaments. I just need to find a box I can ship them in and get them to the post office.  I haven't really gotten started on SS, other than carrying the printed list around with me .

Shopping was started today! @Reinholt1 is your mom still allowed to have coffee cakes because I wanted to send her some with her Christmas card?

Thank you All is healing as it should. I had to have a skin graft so it’s a slow process. On the plus side, light duty gives me more time to watch Christmas movies

I received my SS gift today! What a surprise after a rough week at work. I had a feeling the box was from my SS so I peeked enough to confirm!  I know the “theme” but not what’s in it and I will wait until my birthday (12/15) to open it fully!  Thank you, thank you thank you SS!  

[Illinoismom]

My ss shopping is done, wrapped and boxed and addressed. Well 99.9 of all my shopping is done and wrapped I feel ahead of the game 

[wittenlover]

About half done (I think) with my SS shopping now. Planning on finishing the rest throughout this week. Can’t wait to pull it all together and get it on its way! [emoji4]

[Bopeep]

Everybody, please be sure to post here when you receive your package.  Thank you so much for those of you that already have!

[Reinholt1]

Sorry,  Been spending a lot of time at mom's new placement.  Trying to help her adjust.  She is starting to receive cards (yay) and a box arrived with her name.   Mom's birthday is Saturday so I will give them to her then.  It will be a good way to launch the holiday season.  Thank you all!
