THE RULES....

1. Mail deadline is November 14th. That is a HARD deadline. No mailing AFTER this time. Since you have almost 2 months, there should be NO excuse for mailing late, unless you are incapacitated or 6 feet under.

Great! I am marking it down on my calendar right now. Thanks!

I would think it's a open hole... you won't need it air conditioned.... and being the time of year and it's location... it's not going to be hot either....except for all the hot air blowing around

I just looked at the rules and can't find when the mail out date is. When is it? Thanks!

DEADLINE is NOVEMBER 14th. That doesn't mean that you have to wait to mail it till 11/14...you can mail it earlier and not have to worry about it not arriving on time.
Plus, you can drive your giftee a little crazy, wondering what is in the package....hehe!!!

YAY! Have not been able to play in a while! Looking forward, might be the only Christmas gift I get. Darn, just a kid at heart!

Last year I mailed from 3 different states. I bought things on ebay and the sellers were good enough to put their return addresses on with "Secret Santa".

ArizonaKAT, my DD just bought a 100+ acre farm and "inherited" the 5 horses/ponies that reside there. She is complaining about the costs, but the lady who owned the farm and still owns the Halflinger ponies, and 1 Icelandic pays for all the fees for them. DD just happens to see the bills. She said it was $480 for the shoeing every 6 weeks for the 4 horses/ponies. The Icelandic has Cushings Disease, so he has expensive vet bills too. Anyone who thinks horses are not expensive is in for a BIG surprise. Jump on in, we will take your mind off your troubles.

Reminds me of a quote I read recently: How do you make a small fortune with horses? Start out with a large fortune!

not falling for your siren call you bad bad quilters! you live down in your muddy old hole with your sewing machines. I will sit on top in my chair unplugging them every chance I get. And the post man stops here buddy boys. I get all the boxes as it appears few are willing to sit on top and run the darned sprinkler over your mud hole but being kind, good, patient (oh yes) and in great fear of our leaders wrath should one not comply have at it. You guys enjoy. Oh yeah up here we have any thing you can imagine at our fingertips.. tea, coffee, hot toddies.. sugar covered snow ball cookies and jam thumbprints, big old rib eyes on the bbq which you cant have as alas a bbq in a mud hole is not a good plan and those big lights you installed? power outage coming I am sure of it. ..so muck away girls muck away. raid my stash and my attack kitties will eat you alive. in one bite. big big kitties.

She showed her teeth early on and they are awfully.. pokey! so have fun in the hole I will sit out here watching you in my nice lounge chair sharing a midnight cocktail with the other ones who comply with the rules. I think we will have stuffed mushrooms, chocolate covered strawberries, packages did I mention PACKAGES full of secret santa goodies while you guys will have mud muck and shotguns pointed right down into that hole. Tell me, which side would you rather be on NOW??? (I wonder will those packages have fabric? threads? Christmas cookies? candies? books? patterns? hum.. go enjoy your mud girls go on)..

I think I'll stay good...Looks like it could be more fun up on top. Wasn't a lot of turkey offal thrown down the hole just after it was dug?
