All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2017: That'll put marzipan in your pie plate, Bingo!  

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, 2017. You have a lot to turn around, 2018. Bring it on.

not your mom's socks.

Holy moly my secret santa knew the perfect day to drop a box on me (it has been a really tough day). I cannot wait to open it. More soon.

Thank you so much Secret santa (I have a guess but I am not certain so if you want to out yourself...) this was the perfect combination of whimsy and joy and beauty -- the framed puzzle with all our names in it is my heart favorite, but I admit to already stopping HPF from stealing the necklace and the socks with a benedict cumberbatch level "NOPE." There are buttons and cookies and I adore everything. Thank you so much.

Because books.

I thought I put my name on the back of the card, but I might have forgotten in my rush to actually mail the package! I'm so glad you like it all. I had fun making the word search.

Amazon says my first Santee package was delivered, I hope that's true. Still putting together the second.

Our wings are not tired.

My part two is very slightly delayed by the lack of automobile since mine is in the shop and I have a stop to make. Not sure what DH's schedule is for the lone vehicle tomorrow.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Just went to Amazon and reported that Santee's main gift still hasn't been delivered. Further details as they become available. If not for this one item, the package would have been in Santee's hands before the New Year. Irksome.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Captain Underpants was Emmett's first reading hook as well!

His next big love was Roald Dahl, so give that a shot by second grade.
