ONLY 2 days left to get in on ABalGENSTABSEA (the gift exchange) - We are at 19 21 participants, I would like to break 25 this year. Click on the link 2 posts above to join up.
Well NOW you have done it! You have waited 'til the last day to sign up for the gift exchange. We are at 24!! Only 1 person away from the goal. Goals were meant to be exceeded though, so my sights are now set higher.
3 posts up there is a link to click on and get signed up. It is all very simple. I am available to answer questions, help out, and pinch hit if things become too stressy.
Gift Exchange Draw has occurred. If anyone has any issues with their draw, please email me asap and we can get it resolved.

And finally, if anyone has any problems as this goes on or if you feel overwhelmed, please please please just email me and rescue elves with jump in.
I might have been gray in the past weeks and can't join this year's ABalGENSTABSEA, but I'd like to revive a past tradition: my annual-Christmas-announcement/reminder to Buffistas with religious affiliates.
For those of you who don't know: I live in Israel, and spend pretty much equal amount of time in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and Haifa. I also know this board has religious people on it, or people with religious families and friends.
So if any of you of any faith would like something from here - the Old City, the inter/cross-faith festival in Haifa in December, or anywhere else - for Christmas or any other occasion, it's really easy for me to get it and send it overseas. In fact, I'd LOVE to do this for you, given enough guidance and information (I am and was raised Jewish, and pretty much everything I know about Christianity came from popular culture TV and a BA in history, which mostly covered the Middle Ages). I'm also OK with rubbing objects against graves/approximated graves/holy locations, if that what turns you on.
Profile addy is good (notice it is changed), and again - it's not a hassle. It's the opposite of it.
Happy holidays!
Has anyone who DID NOT sign up for the ABalGenSTABSEA been sent an assignment (I am aware of this happening with one person already, I wanted to see if it was widespread)?
For all who DID sign up, please check that the person you drew is on the participant list, if not , send me an email.
Thanks.
The problem with the HTML and quick-edit formatting links is resolved now.
Thanks for your patience.
I should have done this earlier, but! If you're shopping on Amazon, don't forget to use the affiliate links -- the board gets a cut of that, and it adds up.
Thanks!
ABalGENSTABSEA participants - now is the time to let me know if you are having difficulties getting things for or to your giftee. We have pinch hitters and I can help anytime you need it.
Also, if you have received anything, the year-end thread will be open soon, so get ready.
nevermind you are all awesome, NO STRESS!
