Saturday Puzzle-Contest — Someone’s checking his watch!
Saturday, December 3rd, 2022

UPDATE: The winner is…Eileen! Hope you’re out of the hospital and feeling better!
*~*~*

Today, I’m up at O-dark-thirty to get this blog completed because I have to get a shower and get to the holiday craft show! My daughter and I have prepared for months but were still working up until yesterday because we didn’t feel like we had enough “stuff”—um, we do, but we always feel we could’ve done more. I’m leaving my space a wreck, paints and papers still on my desk and art table. Everything strewn around. I DON’T CARE. I have to shower and get dressed in the most obnoxious Christmas clothing. I’ll dig up a Christmas pin for my jean jacket… Should I bring Christmas fairy lights…? STOP!

I’ll leave you with the puzzle. Solve it. Then tell me how prepared you are for the season for a chance to win a $5 Amazon gift card!

    Let’s just say that I am so not prepared for this holiday season. I have a hard time getting in the mood every year.

    I’m never prepared. Being creative being like you makes it harder yet. I do have lots of Christmas earrings and a brouche and a red Jean jacket. So that helps.

    I start early – basically shop the sales all year. A lot more fun and no hassles.

    I’m done and just finished wrapping all the gifts. I always do my shopping early but this year got delayed with Hurricane Ian and us not being able to leave or get deliveries. Then Hurricane Nicole caused problems with my outdoor decorations. But now everything is back on track.

    Thanks, everyone, for sharing!

    Sounds like Eileen needs the GC to add some books to her reader. Hope you feel better soon!
