My Mom also collected rocks and I got to keep her's too.   And now, Zeke, likes to look for special rocks.    (My Mom would lick rocks to bring out the color in them! She was a naturalist)  I don't lick rocks!



G-ma and Okarol,  I am in good company   :cuddle;   So whoever has our names could just send us a rock from their area!  We are cheap -- well, maybe not cheap, just easy --- no that doesn't sound right either.   :rofl;

Hey, whoever twirl is secret santa to can you please just tell her when you get your parcel that you know it is her so she can then have the delight in informing everybody on IHD who she was secret santa to.  Put the poor girl out of her misery!!!

G-ma, we must be related somehow!  I use the alcohol method--but my Mom was a character.  She did get everyone's attention, though! 

But, I don't want lumps of coal in my stocking!   :rofl;

Twirl, you won't relax until your secret santa opens the presents!  Are you getting anxious to know who has your name??  Maybe it is me!  Now you are going to start worrying about that!!   :rofl;

I sent the package. I hope it arrived okay. Are people posting when the package arrives at their house? I know I was the early bid, ut I was sending four packages to various places and went a little overboard getting things out early.  My daughter in Wisconsin got her package.  So where the secret santa went it should have arrived by now.
