Not cutesy, just cute. (that's a compliment. Sorry, I'm not very good at the text this week) I'm sorry about your back, I hope you feel better soon. I love the idea of your ornament party, and I'm really impressed about the $260. That's awesome. Sigh. We never get a tree and I usually don't decorate because we are ALWAYS gone for Christmas. The only year we got a free pass was when we were moving to another state in January. That was a great year. I'm all for laid-back, low-key holidays. Next year isn't looking too great, as there will be 2 I second Carrie, those are my favorite Christmas stockings I’ve seen around this year. Not cutesy, just cute. (that’s a compliment.

And you thought you got your tree for free...I'm sorry you'll be eating top ramen for a while, but I applaud your kind, giving soul. Your stockings kick ass. And I hope your back is better soon, pookie. P.S. Who brought the gingerbread house ornament? It's totally cute. Yay! $260!

Wow. God is probably going to smite you. Or maybe He'll just plunder your booty. Either way, watch your back.

And that's a fantastic idea for a holiday party. I may steal it for future use. Sorry that the tree was so vindictive, they really do have a spiteful streak. The stockings turned out great!

I have to ask: how did you get your stockings to float in space in front of the fireplace like that? Wow. Perhaps baby jee-jee had something to do w/it? May the strike be over soon! (I keep thinking of you and hoping, for your sake, that people will get their heads out of their butts and get talking.) Cheers, Karen Happy New Year!

I'm so sad we missed out on your party...stupid Roman shit anyhow. I LOVE the variety of ornaments you received, and now you have a special memory and face to attach to each. Much more precious than going out and buying them. Let me know when your stash sale is. If you're doing it "in person" let me know if you need any help. I think I owe you a visit anyway. Hugs to you and the boy, and hang in there. I certainly hope this strike is over soon! Too many of my friends are out of work and that totally sucks!

Sorry for being late again. Those stockings are adorable, and I totally know what I'm making for my friend's "second xmas in her new house but the first xmas after the Great Basement Flood of '08". Yes, indeedy. Plus, I don't have to start them until, like, later. I so wish the strike would be over. Not that I watch TV anymore (waaah) but because I worry about you! I’m so behind on everything.
