We've talked about this and I don't think anyone is organizing it so ....I'm going to get us started! I think the ornaments should be mainly handmade but if you saw something at a store that reminded you of that person you could pick that up too. We could all wait and open our packages together one night in December, an ornament postathon if you will. Or some other funn plan...I'm open to any and all suggestions. Participation is not an option*!!!!! Grinches, bah humbuggers, you know who you are;-) ....this will put you in the C'mas spirit. :biggrin: I have created a new email just for this purpose. Please email OLbunnyfunn@aol.com with your sowal name and your real name and address.* I will draw names and send you your person!

*Lurkers need not apply! (not to be rude--we wouldn't know anything about you) 500 posts+ or you are new and chatty.( Beach Jacket comes to mind plus we already kind of know her):biggrin:

You're a hoot :floor: I haven't gotten anything for Sunshine yet. Got back from Mayo Sat night. Slept Sunday. Took my bumper to get repaired today (ripped it off on a curb a few weeks back). Have to drive to Miami to renew my passport Wednesday and plan on shopping tomorrow and Thurs. I'll get her something then but she's been away from me so much that she'll just be thrilled to go out with me. She's had it rough throughh all this. :( But she's a trooper :wub:

I'm so confused. Where are you now, Cork?

I'm in Tarpon Springs at my parents. We were just in Jacksonville at mayo clinic for 3 weeks. He's had surgery and his first chemo. Don't need to go back to Mayo for 3 weeks and I'll be in Europe with Ali then so my sister is gonna take them up.
