I'm so sorry to hear. I hope things get better. :hug: And I hope you win the lottery too. Miracles do happen sometimes. :D

Hum. This year we had very few folks playing. Is money that tight? Or some dissatisfied with thier gifts? Hell it's all in fun. I've never got anything I didn't like or could use.
Money hell I'm broker that a she hant. Better times this year, I hope.

I sent some things to people I had the adresses for from last year but as far as I know, only one was received.

That was me, right?

My personal withdrawal from Secret Santa was due to a number of issues.
Some were with the Cellar, MANY were financial, others with related to my health and Mum & Dad's, and the anniversary of Grandad's death too. I was desparately unhappy because of all of the above.

I hope the people I know well on here, IRL and via phone and PMs have seen a change in me already. More responsible, more careful, probably no less likely to over-react but perhaps less likely to broadcast it. Can't be sure it will last, but hey - neither will life.

I adore present and cards and wrapping and surprises. Always have. Not always a good thing :) But I'll be part of SS 2013 as long as I am alive and working.

Any changes that need to be made in order to make it work I'm happy to go along with.

Yup. :-)

Hey Sheldon, missed you buddy. :welcome:

Thanks Bruce. I moved to CA at the end of January and have been super busy alternating between applying for jobs and not getting them. Gets me down and panicky sometimes.

Yeah, unemployed can certainly crimp your style. Buck up, you'll hook up and life will be good again.:thumb:

Sheldon,

I'm sorry you didn't see my post thanking you and the others. Your gift touches my heart and is the perfect gift for me!! I'm really sorry if you thought I was dissing your gift

You get a pass, Sarge. I wrote you a note.
Although if you took any pics we'd love to see them.

be careful what you wish for!!! ;)

Never thought that Sarge! I was just worried that you didn't get it!
And I'm sorry I missed your post. My life is at a crazy point right now.
HUGS! :-)

No, don't hug him Shel, he's shedding. :haha:
