Merry and peaceful Christmas to all islanders. I hope everyone is able to relax now. Here are only a few hours left until we are allowed to unwrap presents and eat too much cookies.

Frohe Weihnachten!

It's raining cats and dogs today - typical weather around here for Christmas Eve. [emoji38] Good thing: it's going to be dark within in an hour, so we do not have to see the bad weather outside. [emoji3]

Enjoying the little things.:heart:

Happy Christmas, fellow islanders.
Tossing out a few messages-in-bottles for our missing friends, too.:smile:

Ooh! Christmas adventure!

Oh yes, lightening a candle for our islanders missing in action. [emoji17]

Christmas green handbag.jpg
We hunted & killed some VERY last minute gifts.
Easier, when entered store in panic.
And announced, "Santa needs something to put under the tree! I waited until last minute! Omg!"
5 clerks helped me, immediately. :panic:

Sadly, no one helped me to wrap gifts--so they resemble wadded paper lumps.
With far too much tape.:whistle:

I may scrawl on, "It's the thought that counts," with silver, metallic sharpie ink.
Just for good measure.:tup:

Bag looks awesome!
Sounds like we learned to wrap at the same craft "workshop".
Silver sharpie went missing here last week and had to use REGULAR sharpie.
Luckily giftees were too concerned with ripping paper to notice much.
Cheers to all [emoji322][emoji482][emoji268]
 
I know I've been absent for a very long time, but I really want to say "Merry Christmas to you all the Merry ladies here. Hope you have a good time and happy holidays!!!!" [emoji4]
