  Can we start a Secret Santa Recieved/Sent Thread?

  i'm worried because i sent a christmas card plus had a gift sent by ups over the internet about 7 days ago and haven't heard anything.

  i would feel really feel bad if my person didin't receive their gift or card.

  so i think we need to have an official post place.

  Back of the hall stragglers... were you one?

  there were mother's with babies, there were those suffering from vericose veins that had to stand up.

  what about the rest of us?

  in my cong there were only a few "gifted ones" who'd do sound and it was behind the literature counter (our hall was tiny).

  My first hall - I mostly sat middle to back. When I left that hall, I was always in the back at the ends, makes for escaping easily afterwards. By my last hall - I made excuses to sit in the second school with all the mom's with babies- didn't get too much outta those talks - Oh well...

  NYC people or those that have been there

  by mariposa in

  2. friends

  it appears we will be visiting nyc from about the 16th of dec. for a week or so.

  we are going to see some long lost friends of my husband in queens and i'm sure they'll show us around, but there's also going to be alot of drinking and catching up between them and i'll have quite a bit of free time on my hands.

  i don't know if we're going to stay with them or not, i've been checking on craigslist for an apt or something we could rent.

  Ok - we're headed to 10 min. east of Kennedy airport, right on the line between Queens and Long Island. Does that sound familiar to any of you?

  I'm still looking for a place other than that to stay. I guess somewhere between that area and Manhattan. I'm checking out the hotel that po's son recommended.

  How long after Christmas are the lights and festivities up downtown? We're not sure if we're going before or after the 25th.

  No I still don't know where we're going in Queens yet. I reeeeeeeally don't want to stay w/ my husbands friends so where we stay is still kind of open. They all speak another language and I don't know how well they speak English. I'm tempted to take the baby and go stay in a hotel in Manhatten by myself!! It'd be more fun that way:)

  I take it the mass transit is used a whole lot more in NYC than here in Atlanta. I drive everywhere downtown here w/o problems but I won't be doing it there for sure!! Thanks to you guys!

  If any of you guys want to meet up, let me know!

  A tribute to Moose

  our basset hound moose died this morning.

  he was only 2 1/2 years old but he had addison's disease.

  something caused internal bleeding and he went very quickly, which was merciful.
