I just had this hairbrain idea. What do you guys think about having a secret santa for christmas? Everyone who is interested could send me their address (don't worry I'm NORMAL, no stalkers here lol lol) and I could exchange the addresses. Send me a list of:
2 Hobbies/interests
3 inexpensive gifts u would like to receive
So everyone gets a little anonymous gift in the mail around christmas time to make them feel good. Just an idea!! Let me know what u guys think.

Cool the list keeps growing! I will keep you guys updated... I'm going to put out a reminder post in one week and by the 20th I will be emailing everyone for your info. Unless you feel like just sending me a message now. Its up to you. And REMEMBER if you can't afford to send much thats OK!! Most of the ladies that have sent me messages like to crochet or knit so even if you sent a 5.00 gift card to a craft store like AC MOORE or Michael's that would be 2 things of yarn. Just an idea.

WOW! What an overwhelming response guys! I am so excited about this, you have no idea. Between you guys and the fibromyalgia board we have about 75 people this year who want to exchange gifts. I COMPLETELY understand the fact that a lot of you don't have much money this year...just a loving card is enough to make someone smile during their difficult time. Or if you wanted to send something but just dont have a lot of funds, a lot of people on here are into arts and crafts. So a 5.00 gift card to Walmart, AC MOORE, Michaels, Jo Ann Fabrics etc would be awesome....that's 2 things of yarn or even craft supplies. I have limited my gift to 15.00..which was really difficult since I keep finding cute stuff through avon lol. I will be posting another message in about a week with an update of how this will work and then around the 20th I am going to start sending messages requesting your info. God bless!

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
