I'm back from Black Friday shopping - and hubby is getting a shower and we are going to go back out again.  I want to be done with shopping by the end of today!!

Those ornaments are amazing! 

[lindyv321]

love the ornaments!  I finished my black Friday shopping.  Walmart was INSANE.  I ended up leaving and going to Target. 

I forgot to put the code on the first package and I revealed myself but I will be sure to put it on the next claims that get sent.  I signed my name as my code name on the cards too.

Finished my black Friday shopping, did the mall with my mom and my friend from 6-1030, then they took me to Joanns. Spent 1 1/2 hours in line to get fabric cut! But it was worth it.. My bones and feet are killing me from walking now.

Secret Santa- Can you come give me a foot massage?

I was at the Ashley Warehouse sale here and knocked a few more people off the Christmas list, and found the cutest Harley Davidson outfit for a toddler I know.  But I was going to pick up some treats there - they had these really nice chocolate coated licorice - but it was three licorice sticks (locori?) for $3.99 - absolutely ridiculous when I could get a bag of twizzlers for less than that, and a bunch of chocolate wafers at the bulk barn and make  my own - hmmmmmmmmmmm......

Now that I am done that, I will do the last little bits of crafting on my two packages, so they can be sent tomorrow.

Can you believe it? Here, where I live, YARN is OUT OF STOCK.

It's look like everyone is taking up crocheting/knitting this winter.

Everywhere, yarn is out of stock.
And I need to get some to make an item for my partner.

I was out the door by 3:30 and off to ToysRUs... then to Walmart - It was crowded but I got everything on my list plus  Rock Band for PS3 for David/kids for Xmas.  That wasn't on my list but oh.my.god. it was so cheap so I had to get it and when I told David about it he was thrilled!  I was worried he'd want me to return it... I then went to Target.  The lines were insane although the store was relatively empty except by where the toys was that was a total madhouse... then I was off to Home Depot, Walgreens & Lowes... went home, unloaded, waited for David to get himself ready then we went back out to Target - the store was empty but the Casio keyboards were still there so we got that for Logan (grandma wants to give Logan a nice keyboard for xmas) and we went to the 15 minute express oil change place to get a tail light bulb replaced - it went out after I had left Walmart - stinkers!  But it only cost $7 to fix it, then to Sam's Club then home to unload the keyboard and then off to lunch (fast food) then to see 2012 the movie (I give it a C+ and an A for effort but an F for going a little too far over the line of ridiculous so a C average, and the + for being at least enjoyable to watch and cool special effects) then to the mall and Kmart and someplace else I'm sure I'm forgetting then to the new Cheddars restaurant to give it a try for dinner - mighty yummy... then got gas and went to Walmart.

Do not ask me to go to the store today  !!!!

We are going to pick up the kids at grandma's house this morning and then the PS3 will probably be on until dinner I'm sure.  Logan is probably having Little Big Planet shakes 

Whew!  What a day yesterday was!!

This swap sounds like so much fun.

Unfortunately, I think I will give away my identity by where I live. Also, I have to put my name on the customs form.  Oh well, it's still a surprise for the recipient!


So, does the secret Santa ever unmask themself? Or, is it a mystery forever? I love it either way.

[Yarn or Fabric]

I think that will depend upon the individual... I know I will unmask myself to my recipient but I'm not sure about others...
There have been a few packages sent already.. only time will tell.  Our first opened package sender is keeping very quiet so far
