I love your coal hod. Extra special for all the "coal".
Terri.... Dan found a pattern for making a real coal hod.... we drafted it and made it out of fabric... I had that fabric in my stash and it screamed "coal hod"...
So glad you like it... I still have some people that didn't get their coal to me before I sent your bucket. I'll send it on to you as soon as I receive everyone that is going to send

I had started to work on the hand made gift that I will be making for my NICE. SS person and had to vacate my house in a hurry. My daughter called to tell me my neighbors called and said they smelled a gas leak from my house. They had knocked on my door but I was deeply into sewing and did not hear them My son-in-law picked me up half way to his house. Fortunately we live just a few house from each other. I am now sitting at their house waiting for the gas company to come and shut the meter off. Fortunately the only gas appliances are the heater/ac unit and the hot water heater. Any way I am over here for awhile. Will complete the gift tomorrow, pick up a couple more items and mail by the dead line. I hate just sitting and waiting.

I must have missed the posts with carols. Wish I had been on then. But I want to tell you about a song I heard for the first time yesterday on Syrious radio....Pearl Baily sings "All I want for Christmas Santa is a five pound box of money" She was a funny lady. and the song is so funny too. She says she does not want a money tree; Santa can keep the branches, bark and roots .... she just wants the loot! Now that's the spirit of Christmas
Pearl Bailey's "5 Pound Box of Money":
Hey Santa Claus
You want to make me happy this year?
Listen to me, honey
Give Pearl something that would be of some use to me
Like a five pound box of money
Now there's a little gift
That's loaded with
Lots of sentiment
See, when I get blue, Santa
I'm gonna think of you
But at the same time have a little change to pay my rent
Now, money isn't everything
There's no two ways about it
But while we're here, Santa dear
It's much better with it than without it
So really, I could be real good
And not do nothin' funny
If you do like I ask you
Stop by right on Christmas night
And try me, try me, try me on that money
Just try me, honey
Santa, can you hear me?
Have you listened to everything I've been asking you about?
Listen honey, Santa dear,
The New Year would be so bright and sunny
Just bring me that simple thing that I've been speaking to you about
And bring me a five pound box of money
That's all, that's all
It would be so heavenly
And help me meet both ends, yes indeed
But old Pearl been needin' bad
A five pound box of tens
Really, how much could that weigh?
I don't want the whole money tree
What good is that big thing to me?
You keep the branches, the trunk, and the roots
'Cause all I want is just a little bit of the fruit
So if you wanna be sure I'll be yours
Little old honey, honey bunny
You can start me off on Christmas night
With a five pound – no, I better increase that, ten pounds
No, I better beg big while I'm beggin'
'Cause you know, I might not catch you next year
'Cause sometimes people go out and you don't see them no more
So bring the money
Santa! Do you hear me?

I think that anyone who wants to wait until Christmas should go ahead and do so. I know last year someone mentioned they live alone and don't usually have any presents to open on Christmas day. If waiting makes it more special for you I say go for it! You can pm the sender and Terry to let them know it arrived and then post on Christmas.
