Have to send it again!

Do you think? I don't want to clog up Santa's mailbox! Happy to do it again if needed but didn't want to keep sending notes ad nauseam.

You hafta do it, and you won't get notifications either (until you see your handle posted at beginning of this thread). This is from experience.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I have updated post number two with all names of members who have complied with the directions!

There will be no more updates until at least October 23.

We are heading to St. Petersburg, Fl to help out a friend whose husband is going into hospice. We will then try to take an early anniversary trip over to Orlando.

I think I need to revise my "about me..." I'm now planning a trip to Italy.

Please note...

I'll be on vacation prior to the busy season. If anyone has any additional questions to ask about their Santee, please do so before 8 November, or as they say stateside, November 8. We'll be away after that and a response will be delayed.

Don't know what I'm talking about? Please read my comments upthread.

Has anyone selected any gifts for your yet unknown Santee? You know, gifts that could work for either gender. I figure it's still a few weeks to go before we know who our Santee is, but I have to admit, I've been giving it some thought already as to what I might send.

Not yet, although I did see a few things that I'd buy for a female.

Not yet. I have several commutes and a dedicated Christmas shopping trip in November and December so... *shrug* depends on who my lucky Santee is ^.^

This could be the best Secret Santa platform ever. I'm so excited

Stuff I got can be for friends if not at all appropriate for Santee. But being FT, they'd probably like em anyway.
