I'm thinking a basket full of snowballs is going to end up under someone's tree!

Love your ideas - but must ask Polly - what are you doing up so late?

**Palooka** · 07-19-2010, 02:20 AM

She's always up late like me. lol

Oh I love the ornaments. Very cute.

**pollypurebred39** · 07-19-2010, 02:26 AM

Yep, I'm always up late! Never have been able to sleep well, not even when I was a kid. I do however have to get a new schedule going since DH's schedule is back to a 3am wake up. But until he gets settled in with his schedule I can't change mine. If I tried to get in bed at 11pm he'd still be in a light enough stage of sleep that I'd wake him. He didn't get to bed till 10pm. I'm really hoping he starts getting in bed much sooner this week. After 3 years of being off the job were both out of sync.

I'm totally digging the ornaments!!!

It's like 2:30AM on the East Coast now and I'm seriously thinking about getting ready for bed here - 6 hours earlier!! you night owls!!

**pollypurebred39** · 07-19-2010, 02:29 AM

LOL! Staying up to make DH breakfast. I'll pay for it when DS2 gets up and wants his!

**Palooka** · 07-19-2010, 02:40 AM

I've learned my body only needs about 4-6 hours and that doesn't mean necessarily straight.

Oh, MM can't wait for you to do the ornament exchange again this coming year. I really enjoyed it last year and Polly, it's a must you must do it with us this Christmas!!

I now know that ornaments get drunk floating in the pacific, but they make it there in the nic of time. heh

**pollypurebred39** · 07-19-2010, 02:42 AM

You like these ornaments, huh? LOL!

Yes! lol It was a blast making them hm last year and exchanging them with each other. I was the one that did send mine to MM by regular mail and they was the last to make it across the pacific, but so close. lol

And...um...I'm not crafty at all! This year I will get a little more creative...let's hope.

**pollypurebred39** · 07-19-2010, 02:48 AM

Yeah, I gotta go too. It's time to make the doughnuts. Remember that Dunkin Doughnuts guy? Okay, no really I'm getting punchy. I'm going to get breakfast started.

**pollypurebred39** · 07-19-2010, 02:49 AM

I'll need to try one and see if I think they are nice enough to offer the FVers.

Oh please, if I could do it, you can.

That doesn't mean that FVers actually hung mine on their tree though.

**pollypurebred39** · 07-19-2010, 02:54 AM

*giggles* *Snort* I so snorted, you're too funny!

**mauimagic** · 07-19-2010, 03:12 PM

I hung everyone's ornament on my tree and then decided they were so special, I used a special tree to showcase them!!

Polly - I am see you as a firecracker with both ends lit - please get sleep!!

Also, as far as the ornaments go - we do not get to judge our own creations because that is not fair to those who are on the receiving end. Last year we had soooooo many different types and styles of ornaments and I can honestly say that they were all wonderful and touched my heart. So Polly - just do it!!
