    you can just send me more info about likes/dislikes if you want.
    If the person that is sending is at a loss as to what to find, I will act as a go-between to get more info for them.

    thread
    pins/needles

    I'm so glad I was thinking about this today. Have been super busy babysitting with my dad in hospital. Glad I found it. Didn't want to miss it this year.

    Yes, pull from your stash!
    We all have something in our stashes that we don't use/need.

    LOL Sharet, you sound a lot like me!
    oh, I've been trying to be better. Now that I have such a small extended family left, and they're so far away, and hubs #2 is NOT into any holiday at all, I look forward to my secret santas with anticipation. I save everything until Christmas eve, when I open 1 santa gift (cus, growing up and most of my life most of Christmas fell on Christmas eve), and open the rest Christmas morning - so I have suprises. Hubs doesnt min "giving" me gifts (paying!), as long as I pick them out, pick them up and wrap them lol. sharet
