Yikes, I just checked page one and discovered the mailing date is.........tomorrow! The date I had in my head was immediately after Thanksgiving! Too many events happening in too short of a time and the dates got tangled up. Guess some of my other tasks will have to be set aside while I finish my ornament. I am busy diving into to a new skill but will press on to be finished on time. Cut, snip, press and repeat!

Whoosh! 95% done with my ornament. Multiple trips to multiple shops to get the last little bits and bob's. Time for some sustenance then finish the next to last step, Prep package and off to PO tomorrow by noon. Why did I try a new craft for this swap....because I bought it for last year's swap and never opened the package. Tee-Hee-Hee! Great day in the morning, I fear I may become addicted. My package arrived today, but until mine is in the mail, I am practicing patience and resisting temptation to peek in my package. Anticipation makes any surprise even better. Picture tomorrow!
