|  Another Christmas One week to go and I have got projects in different stages of completion all over my shop. I do it to myself every year but somehow manage to get them all done before the big day. Had to share my dilemma with you all because I am sure that no one else would allow this to happen to them. Last year my wife had to just look at hers till it dried. Not enough hours, Tom

| I'm still cutting stuff that I need for the 23rd and that means it will stink like crazy. I plan on cutting Christmas ornaments in January this time. The issue comes too late anyway but I will be ahead of things next year. (this year I mean it  )Diane

| After doing that for years and years I finally decided not to make Christmas gifts for friends and family! I only make one and that is for my neighbor who looks after my cats when we go away to shows. Every year she gets a different cat! (wood one - not real one!) Everyone else's presents are bought from other vendors that I do shows with. Christmas always sneaks up on is - first it's Thanksgiving then a couple of days later Christmas shows up! We never did get around to getting a tree this year. |

| Been there - done that. One year for Christmas I actually wrapped photocopies of the patterns to give as gifts, with the actual gift soon to be completed. This year I plan to finish on time. Starting next year's gifts in June, yeah right. hal - woodenfish |
