Friends of ours just got back from Iceland and had a wonderful time. I hope you do as well!

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2015: Goodnight moon
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.
Go away, 2015.

Punishingly Intricate
Thank you!!! We're going with two friends, one of whom was there a couple of years ago and one who hasn't been out of the country since she went to Spain in high school back in the 80s! Super excited!!!
Took a minute while packing to finish opening my secret santa treasure trove! As I was suspecting, gifts were from smonster (postmarked Raleigh but everything had a New Orleans feel). Thank you, Nice Lady!!!!! Love everything and would love to come down to see you soon! Maybe sometime this year, I hope! XO

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I know you will have an awesome time, Lisa. Take lots of pictures for us!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
iceland is incredible. Spend lots of time in various hot water pools enjoying the thermal spring everywhere.

Suzi, the other package got here! I was thrilled to find it was from Shiro cosmetics. I am wearing Red in My Ledger right now AIFG. Thank you, my dear.

THANK YOU LISA H!!!
I came home yesterday to find a package with robot socks, Edgar Allen Poe bandages, a cool calendar, and best of all, the new Kate Beaton book!!!
I, however, am still going to be super, super late sending my gifts, because I have a cold and I have no energy and I suck. Sorry, Santee.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
As a sidenote (reading about the best socks ever) I once found some that were perhaps a runner-up - socks with, knitted in, "Dear Santa ... I Can Explain". Bought them for several friends and my sister ... somehow neglected to get my own pair. sigh ....

Glad you like the socks, Suzi. I can't resist a good pair of Xmas socks, and found several this year that needed good homes.
