Nooooo Not christmas, Not yet! I am so not a winter person. LOL I am so into this nice weather I do not even want to thing of bad weather. But I dont have any kids, and Not many friends, My husband And I do not buy things for each other, We spend enough all year on the house and all. LOL I do miss stockings, they were my all time favorite. We used to do stockings, but Not anymore. I always wanted to do a secret santa with just stockings. Ugh Junie you need a stocking!
.....Ditchy, I think you are right---BUT first I quilt my youngest's Christmas tree skirt, then I should be in a good enough shape--I am going to make myself a stocking.... ....perhaps everyone will feel guilty and help me fill it???---hey one can hope, right??/
and Kim, I dis-associate the cold weather and christmas.--In my mind one has nothing to do with the other. I too hate the cold, but I LOVE Christmas.

"Grace without perfection is more to be desired than perfection without grace."
and did you know, according to us bankruptcy laws, holders of gift cards are considered creditors of unsecured debt and as such are not eligible to be paid until all secured (think mortgage holders) are paid?
.....Ditchy, I think you are right---BUT first I quilt my youngest's Christmas tree skirt, by then I should be in a good enough shape--and then I will make myself a stocking....
...I forgot to mention---my stockings are say 18 by (6 to 8) inch rectangles. They are lined but they have draw strings and so are very easy to make.--I will not have much trouble I am sure.
