Are you going to catch up at all this week?? YOu've been behind every single thread this week. LOL!

be sure to start your shopping now like I did. This way you are sure they have every by Christmas time. Just put it on lay-away til just before Christmas and then Tonk knows where to get it.

Beachy dear, do what I do! A lay-away can require a deposit, and sweetheart, you must protect your cash flow. So, I gather estimates and then issue "always considerate, to save Tonk the time of signing approvals" pre-approved purchase orders. (Tonk then doesn't just know where to get it, he's got it -- and without the bother of also getting pesky writer's cramp or carpel tunnel syndrome! Am I not the most generous gift recipient in the world or what!?)

That noticable, huh? I might be able to catch up faster if I had some music to listen to (and not Punjabi).

I have been known to play a little craps...about every 5 years. I don't play unless I really want to play, and I have never lost.

Slots, on the other hand, have never been kind to me.
