Happy Thanksgiving, and another call-out for holiday card interest! I know the line breaks don't work -- no problem at all, just use commas or whatever.

The link: [link]

Let's see... how about a deadline of five more days for sign-up, Tuesday, Nov. 30th. (Will try to get your info. to you by end of the day next day.)

Does this count as spamming Press? Maybe!

Today's the day -- if you'd like to participate in the b.org holiday card exchange, please sign up at the link in the previous post (don't worry about the line break issue in the form) by today.

I will send out your recipient list to you on Wednesday, 12/1.

Please try to have your cards in the mail by (what was it? ::checks::) January 6th.

(If you end up needing a relief pitcher, just let me know - completely fine if it happens; don't give it a second thought. Well, other than letting me know; do give it that thought. But don't beat yourself up, is what I'm saying.)

OK, holiday card assignments sent! If you didn't get an email from me, please email me at my profile addy. A couple of the addresses looked like they might be old, and I checked the B.org Master Mailing list, but those were no more updated for the couple I'm not sure about.

To avoid any possible confusion, your personal list to send to is in body of the email, but if you opted in to receive the complete address list, you have the complete list attached. Not expecting you to send to everyone on it!

So, your list of recipients is in the email; whole list attached in case you are feeling more writery than you thought.

Again, if you need a pinch hitter, just let me know.

I am arranging a food delivery to Hil next week. If you would like to join or help, please write to my email (in the profile addy).

I'm working with Shir on food delivery to Hil. We've run into a bit of a snag with the place that Shir identified as being both Kosher and vegan. They don't deliver. I understand that Uber has something called Uber eats where they'll pick up takeout orders and deliver them, but I don't have an Uber account. Is there anyone who'd be willing to use their Uber account for the cause? I can get you the money, the restaurant website, the order, and the delivery address. Please contact me via my profile address if this is something you'd be willing to do. Thanks!

Hivemind help needed. We will be moving into the new homestead last week of October and since it is a Condo, there are rules. One of the biggee rules is that moving insurance is required listing the condo as "additional certificate holder" covering any damage to the lobby, elevators, etc. that may happen during move in. This is generally something you get from the professional moving company. The thing is, I won't have one of those. Some stuff I will carry back from NY. Some is in storage and the basketball guys will heave ho that for us. Some is new stuff being purchased that will be delivered by various companies. It is not like one big move in by one company. It won't even happen at once since I'll move a minimal amount of stuff until I finish painting.

I haven't been able to locate an insurance policy that an individual could get to cover this kind of thing. They also ask for a refundable $500 deposit for the move in, which again wouldn't happen all at once. If I can't find an official insurance policy I wondered if maybe I could offer to have a bigger deposit that they could hold for a month or however long it takes for the move to be complete. Moving companies can get these policies, but I don't see any for just people who do it themselves.

It is more regulated since they don't have a freight elevator and you have to use the general use elevator from the garage and let them know in advance so they can hang the protective blankets. Only move in daytime M-F before 4:30 PM. Yeah, rules.

Anyway, if anyone knows about any of this stuff please email at profile addy, or speak up in Natter. Much appreciation for your wisdom.
