So excited!

[starfish]

  All the things I ordered for SS are in! Time to break out the wrapping paper and make a huge mess!

I'm almost there! I'm ordering one last thing, which will be sent right to them. Then I'm making a little goodie basket and sending that! Socio excited

    I was thinking of baking cookies, I have some sugar cookies I make that people rave about,but then I though that might be weird, then I remembered I am weird, and going to ice them tonight. If my littles don't eat them all.

I've got a few things in mind, but I haven't pulled the trigger yet. I love this stuff!! We have such a great group on this board.

Aaaaah! Not being able to access Elfster at work has really slowed down my shopping, lol. But I also am having trouble picking out only $25 worth of things!

 I may, or may not of gone over, but not buy a huge amount if I did. I will not admit it if i did.

Me too! Can we just bump it up to $50 and call it a day?

You know...or not.

I have almost all my stuff too! In fact, I was looking at my little pile of swag this morning thinking, "Is that everything? Is there something else I'm waiting for?" And then I remembered the other thing I had bought that I don't have yet. So I'm almost there!

  Oh I am a huge must get the best deal, get it done now but hate black Friday shopper. Most of my Christmas is done before Halloween. Plus, I don't want to be the person everyone screaming for head because they flaked out.

[CheshireGrin]

I get so excited about Christmas shopping that I tend to get it done early. But I also do 99% of my Christmas shopping online, so it's easy. I despise holiday shopping in actual stores.

  From Thanksgiving and on, I don't even drive to parts of the city. Need something from there? Nope, nothing can get me out that badly.

Me either! Though I do have ideas! I just need uninterrupted time. Just an hour. Please? Lol

I may or may have said screw it and went over. Maybe.

[mala]

I haven't done anything yet. I'm having a hard time deciding. Also, I think I want to make something but I just don't know what, plus I need to finish another SS project for the April Moms board.

[BlackCanary]

I purchased my SS's gifts and now I need to wrap everything and ship it.

[secretlyevil]

Dammit, I'm so behind!

[darkling_glory]

Yay! I started shopping this weekend so I hope to mail things out by the end of the week! I'm so nerdy excited about this! Lol

I feel productive though!

[starfish]

I was all ready to mail everything out when someone sent me a link to the coolest thing that I had to add, so now I working on it. Hope to be done by this weekend.
If not, I will be done by Wednesday cause I have only one kid that week.

[mala]

I'll probably be sending mine out at the last minute! I'm a terrible SS.

Quick question, are nice hand written notes explaining why you picked out the gifts to give lame? I want to do this for both G&G and ML as to show I actu put effort in. Lame or not lame?

Not Lame! I always enjoy knowing someone put real though into my gifts. And hand written? Thats just cute old fashion sweetness.

Not lame at all! I realized I hadn't bought a card, so I wrote a note on a legal pad.
