I ordered the gift for my recipient last week. Unfortunately, I got confirmation saying they are out of stock so delivery will happen shortly after Christmas.
So very sorry for delayed delivery but sending direct to recipient to save delivery time. I hope you like it!

Oh, I'm hoping more participants will put their 'wishes' and likes here...
For me, Holiday Socks, Holiday Gloves, Holiday Earings (pierced). Holiday Dish Towels. Christmas ornaments.
I am partial to Snowmen, Snowflakes and Penguins - but anything christmasy is great.
Nuts, Candies, Chocolates.

some of our writers do the above.
is it automatic formatting on your computer or do you do it deliberately?
i am interested in the whys and wherefores of how you write.
For me, it's habit. I learned on an old manual typewriter.
Old habits die hard.

for any old-school ex-jws here that remember my many posts about my abusive jw mother and my sister committing suicide because of it...she passed away this morning because she began to bleed out and refused a transfusion.
she had been in the hospital for a month.
it appears she suffered a stroke and wasn't found by the brothers & sisters for three days (they missed her at the meetings).
My heart goes out to you.

my family and i will be heading to california next week to go to disneyland.
we have two children under 4, so i was thinking about bringing at least one stroller.. what is the weather like in november?
would a sweatshirt be warm enough, or a light winter coat?
And I'm north of WhaHappened. Which puts me about an hour from Disneyland.
Bring a stroller. You can also rent one there if you decide the other child needs a separate one.
Prepare to spend lots and lots of money. Not sure what the current food policy is, but you might want to go to the grocery store and pack some snacks and drinks.
For what to do on Saturday, might depend on which airport you are flying out of. I think there are 3 within 30 minutes of Disney: LAX, John Wayne (SantaAna), and LongBeach.

can anyone provide a link for the pdf of the current 'shepherding' book?
thanks for any help!.
wannabefree quoted: NOT PERMITTED: outside companies, unbelievers and sisters
LOL I must be getting better and freeer from cult indoctrination. Not too long ago that 'sisters' remark would have gotten me pretty riled up. I just read it now and let out a little 'pfft' with a smile.
What truly closed-minded mysogynists they are.
Sooo glad to be 'out'. Not quite free from all the effects, but definitely out and free-er.

secret santa 2012. with only 7 weeks to go until christmas, should we start to do something now, especially for those posting overseas.
just a thought.
@finallysomepride - I just sent you a pm.
I'm in!

i like to share my picture with you and that you share yours with me.
but only if that does not represent any problem to you.
here is mine.
Can't see anything on your post, wolfman. Just the file name of Image 0000043.jpg
My avatar is me. Small, I know. It's all I got for now.
even though wikipedia isn't perfect, and you still have to vet and research anything you read online, it has proved invaluable to me and many others out there over the last few years since we learned ttatt.
articles on jehovah's witnesses and the watchtower corporations, as well as cognitive dissonance, et al.
have made it a great place to help those that want to free their minds, which includes me lol!.
I don't believe anyone has ever received a thank you like that from the WTS.
I also believe that everyone of us has also been on the receiving end of valuable information from Wikipedia at some point in our lives.
Thank you for helping to keep the site going and thank you for sharing.
