Once again, drawing is Dec 9, ornament can be anything you have, make or buy. Please make sure you'll be able to follow through or email me to take you out of the hat. You will have to contact the person you draw to find out where to send the ornament. Mapleleaf wants a penguin in a kayak. ;)

“I don't know about a penguin, but I've seen a shrimp in a kayak around here.”

“count me in! chelle4ua@yahoo.com”

“Count me in griffi0351@hotmail.com”

“Ok, count me in.

(Email address in profile)”

“Divinity... you want a Minnesota Vikings ornament??!?!?

Wow, that must really suck, a whole tree in Vikings stuff! >8-O

lol... hey, give me Div! LOL!”

“how cute is this!

“Pretty darn cute!

Miss Opie and Phantom Soul are in the hat. Flatlander Matt, you're already on the list.”

“Of course, I wouldn't mind getting something that's Pink... :-) But no blond Barbies, though! :-)”

“how about a pink flamingo ;)”

“ok, Sass - I'm in you know my e-mail address and it's on my profile

What's the mailing deadline for the ornaments or did I just not read far enough back?”

“dhutch, before Christmas this yr ;)”

“Pick flamingos are cool! :-)

That's a good question Dhutch! And, how can we post our pictures of our ornaments?”

“If I mail it before Christmas it could get there in January depending on how long I take to chose just the right ornament, or (more likely) procrastinate going to the post office.

I seem to have an issue with post offices and secretary of state offices...”

“I hear ya, dhutch. Luckily, I can mail things from work, and just pay them the postage.

However, I've been driving several items for the Salvation Army around in my car for 3 weeks. Today I finally dropped them off - the Salvation Army is literally 5 doors down the street from where I work. Talk about a slacker....”

“You both should see the problem we have with returning empties. Gotta be worse than the slavation army items. I'm not so sure about procrastinating about Sec of State though.”

“lol me tooooo Sass. I don't CARE about the 10cents!”

“wooohooo i found some very cool ones.”

“hey can we do this today :)
I am not sure if I order the thing on line, that it will get there in time for the holidays.


come on......please :)”

“I want to know whose name I get before I buy the ornament. It has to fit that person.”

“I guess if you guys want to. How about tomorrow?

ANYONE ELSE WANNA GET IN ON THIS?!”

“I agree--
I need to get my name soon....

BTW-- are we going to announce the names, or
are we just doing a "secret santa" so that we surprise each other?

“do it, do it till your satisfied.

Make sure you do good matching, this could open doors to relationships...LOL”

“You have to find out where to mail the ornament so it can't be secret.”

“I'm not matching up anything! I'm just drawing names out of a hat.”

“No, but does the receiver know who is sending it?”

“should be able to be secret (the sender)? (except that you'd know of course!)”

“Pink, you have to contact the recipient to get their address.”

“Well, You have to ask the person yourself, with their email address (that's why it would be a good idea to put your email address in your profile). I'm not going to find out everyone's address and send it to everyone, just the person I draw.
I will send out an email that says who drew who, that's all.”

“and they have to email the addy somewhere don't they? Or will we just have everyone post the address on a thread? i don't think so!

Don't see how it can really be secret.”

“this isn't suppose to be a secret gift. You are just doing a ornament gift/exchange. the only person who will know your real address is the person sending you the ornament.”

“OK, I see...

On other forums, we've done the "1 person compiles the list" thing and they would send out the addy's individually to the people participating... That way, each person would get a surprise "gift"... :-)

But I'm fine with either method... just wanted to clarify! :-)

Can't wait-- I love to give and get things in the mail!! :-)”

Sassafras


then I'm not playing! :p”

“Pink, that would work also. I bet Pink gets some type of a pink ornament”

“I sure hope so! I was in the malls yesterday... Apparently, this year's hottest color is hot pink.. I love it!!!

Victoria's secret even has a perfume called "Pink" AND I love the way it smells! Had to drop some hints on Thinkbubelz.... LOL”

“I already bought my ornament. I decided it will work for all of you. ;)”

“Ruby, better hope you don't get pink's name unless the ornament has some pink in it already”

“Pink's going to get herself then she can go to Victoria's secret and buy the perfume she wants, hang it on the tree by a hot pink ribbon and be happy. ;)”

“ROFLMAO...

Ewk--Does that mean that ruby needs some Ruby Slippers, too? What do we get you, a deck of euchre cards?”

“LMAO!!!”

“:-D Smiley, we'll just get you a Joe Boxer smiley face ornament.... :-)
and sassafras will get a bottle of root beer on a string... :-)”

“whats euchre cards?”

“Cards you play euchre with. Just the 9-King/Ace of the deck. Use the 5's a score cards.

Its a Michigan thing.



Joe Boxer, huh? How 'bout just the boxers? Its time for new jammies anyway!”

“ya know I never even knew there was a card game named after me. Still haven't got a clue as to what it is.

Smiley, you want the fly in the back or front”

“I am all ready. Bring it on. :-)”

“Ewker... you know, Euchre is pronounced "You-Ker".. like your name?!

Sort of like Pinochle (pronounced Pee-knuckle").... LOL”
