hey there, say, Yury... well, kind of, :)


i usually send out an email, explaining it all, but,
i don't think we can get mail here...

so, i have to 'give some of the surprise away'

BASICALLY:

i am a 'catalogue' of TWELVE gifts that get sent out to someone...
(i just go by a gut-feeling, who to pick, each year) ...
EVERYONE is special, of course, but i can only do one person
a year, :)


i need ONLY for you all to a 'gift giver name'...

and i will post a list of gifts...

you will JUST PICK which gift you want to give, to the 'mystery person'
(i DO WANT you to know who they are, but-- i need to find a way to email
you all, and can't just post my email on line, here, as many of you can't)


so, you may not even KNOW this year, WHO this is for, until afterwards...
:(


they all go into a box--
i will pay to send it...
and will write a poem...

they will open one gift per day, for 12 days,
:)


made to the 12 days of christmas poem, that will match the gifts...
(as a CLUE, before the person opens the numbered gift)

*nope, no lords a leeping, :))



so far, i have:

me,
mouse,
sue lacey,
and johntp,

(nita? might join in, after i email her, :)

so, THAT is five, so far... :)



let me know, Gary, and Yury, and anyone else,
if you want to be part of a surprise,
to make someone feel special...

we will SHARE, after the holiday, HOW IT WENT...

:)

hey there, say, WOWOWOWOWOWOWO... (OOOPS, i now sound like a puppy-dog) ...


:))


wow, guys, thank you... okay, lets see what we got, now...

(got a few i can email, too, that i did not get hold of last night...)


OKAY--- great, we go NINE, now... :)


after i get the poem done, and the list of gifts...
then you all CAN PICK... etc...
(as you, you know, your gut feeling, your personality, etc,
or, the types of gifts you prefer to give... most will
on the small, light side, so they will mail in the one big box) ...

:)


*just so you know how this started... i was listening to the
12 days of christmas song, one ever, as i was brushing my hair
in the mirror... and, i 'reflected' on it, as, WOULDN'T
IT BE NICE:

IF this could be transferred into a 'NEW SONG' (poem)
that would brighten someones day, during the
'commercialized busy season' and perhaps LAST ALL year long,
as to friendship, :)


wow, we could NOT DO THIS, without each other...
we are a wonderful, warm, and versatile, and--
colorful 'quilt of characters', that can:
ACTUALLY DO GOOD, around this ol' world... :)

you are the best!!!

hey there say, all...

secret project box, HAS ARRIVED... AND, here is the poem...


since i do not have an email for all, i think it would be okay to
put the poem here...


- DONE TO THE TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS:
entitled now: -- THE FIRST DAYS to Christmas,

HERE WE GO—on the first days THROUGH Christmas, my ‘to do’ friends sent to me …
A group-gift-box, of many things, as I shall NOW see… (open ONE a day)

1 = for the FIRST day through Christmas, came sparkly decorations…
something, FESTIVE to go with our happy declarations!…

2 = on the second day through Christmas, if you are cold, after a homeward ride…
here’s something to make YOU feel warm-and-cozy, once you come inside…

3 = on the third day through Christmas, as you move into all this fun…
here’s a bit of CHEERY sounds, to ‘tap’, when the day is done!…

4 = on the fourth day through Christmas, as meal-time comes-around…
here’s some festive-colors, to keep, where dishes abound!…

5 = on the fifth day through Christmas, it must be getting nearer to the day …
so here’s a gift of ambiance, and smell, to both WEAR and use, in some way!…

6 = on the sixth day through Christmas, something precious from outside…
was made into a little gift, that now, in a fancy container, a’bides…

7 = on the seventh day through Christmas, why, you might still need to go out?…
well, here’s something WARM, and fun, that you can take about!…

8 = on the eighth day through Christmas, this is for you to everyday, enjoy…
a memory of a special place, of something you’ve done, in some place, oh boy!…

9 = on the ninth day through Christmas, it’s time to think, hope, and dream…
keep this nearby, and KNOW that prayers surround you, no matter how things seem…

10 = on the tenth day through Christmas, you will have something now, to reach for…
when you want to keep in touch with loved ones, or friends, for sure…

11 = on the eleventh day through Christmas, after all the busy days wind down…
You can relax and pamper yourself, and get rid of any hard-day’s frown…

12 = on the twelve day through Christmas, this last simple little gift, will leave a clue…
In the sink, each night, reminding you, that support you, in all you do!…


THUS--CHRISTMAS is NOW a daily thing! for you!… many folks neglect to keep sharing
love through the year… SO—WE sent you little reminders :
little gifts around a house, so you can remember love, compassion and care,
and keep us-friends in your heart, so near…

HAPPY CHRISTMAS, from: brian/mouse, feralfea, andrzej, lynne leitchfuss,
nita & andy, susan lacey, tad & mo, tamberly, johntp , gary, susan walker/seagoat, & me neebee…


and, of COURSE there are many more friends and loved ones, that
love to help do things...

however, we JUST DO NOT have the time, all year...

thus-- this extra fun surprise,
helps give an extra hug, each year...


from the ones that 'can do' AT that specific time...

thank you all! once again, you all are the best!!!
