Ohh, I hadn't thought about the boxes replacing the free shop. I really hope that doesn't happen.

I'm freezing. It went from 62 yesterday to 50 today to 41 tomorrow and 23 tomorrow night. BRRR.

Wintery special! It can be nice out walking if it's not too cold.

Hmm, think my throat could do with hot tea, but time for sleep so no caffeine!

I did wonder, with there being some higher priced items, but it may be just to test the forums on the new servers, like said.

OK, folks, medicine and sleep here. Have a good day/evening where you are! Good night.

Just got my first forum gift box of the day...and got a rumpled white dress shirt. Yay.

Peppermint tea with no caffeine if you have it :) Have a good night and hope you start feeling better!

- Oh no, sorry to hear you are sick, feel better!!

Heya sharkies! Ok, I've really got to get better at posting in the forums! Just got my bills paid and now I'm debating if I should get all of my Christmas cards ready to send out.. or should I start wrapping up the saran wrap ball that we're going to pass around Christmas Day! I bought a few more goodies for it on the way home from work. What's everyone else up to? :D

I've gotten some nice items and did you know there's a Forum shop now as well????? I'm finding all kinds of new things!!! :D

I'll be around on and off- shout at me when you get back from your errands! Travel safe you!

Me too!!! Questing has been a real dream! <3 I was really struggling the first few days I was back!

Staff said in the comments for the news post that we'll still be getting the Free Shop this year. It just doesn't open until the end of December/beginning of January.

I've still only received 1 gift box but I haven't had time or reason to post much. "You've been given a Forum Giftbox for participating in the forums! Why not open it and see what's inside?" Ha, got that when I posted this. :D My 2nd box.

And, darn, I finally got a gift box for posting on the forum and discovered we can't do ANYthing with them except delete or open. I was planning to put 1 in my gallery and the rest in the vault for later. Rats. :(

SADLY i lost that one a long time ago, it was a flower one from what ever holiday the flower one is (can you tell im never really on except during lumi lol)

OK, good to know. I've been posting all day and have gotten 1 box. Yesterday, I had like 12 or something in only a few hours. Maybe they lowered the frequency? IDK.

I don't know, I was away at work all day and have only gotten 2 boxes since it was announced so haven't noticed. Just really disappointed I can't put 1 in my gallery or vault. Grr.

I asked him about it, and he said he may scrap it and make it another gift, so I'm not too sure what he was meaning by that. Hopefully not scrapping it entirely and starting over! He did say he would try to work on it this weekend.

It would make a nice tribute. I've got most of the Christmas ornaments that she gave me hanging on the tree this year. I'll probably still do some practicing before I work on the sock. My crochet stitches still need practice as well, as I either get them too tight or uneven.

I've missed out on so many fishing and bug tournaments. I think I only have 3 trophies, mainly from fishing, but there might be at least one bug trophy. I need to check my game and see how many weeds have popped up since I haven't touched it since the weekend.

Hope you get to feeling better soon! I'm very surprised that I have yet to get a cold this season, I'm usually on to my second cold by now.

Now to watch A Christmas Carol. Watched Polar Express last night. I'll probably watch Polar Express at least once more by Christmas!

Yeah you get forum points (randomly) for posting on the boards. Back home from shopping. I bought a red microwave, a can opener and a new red toaster :D I am finally going to have my red/black/white chubby chef kitchen!

Yay!!! That's going to look absolutely gorgeous!!! I love black, red & white together like that!

I have been stalking the Donation Centre, fragmenting cheap stuff, just finished questing and I'm restocking my main shop! All while watching Christmas movies! Talk about multitasking! :D

I am trying to spruce up the place before my ex and his wife get here for Christmas. Fun times lol.

I just finished watching Supernatural. Now I have to wait forever for a new episode :( I hate that!

I haven't seen my ex since Alex graduated from basic training- so almost 3 years. All I can say is thank heavens he doesn't live in the same province!!! :D I don't envy you that visit!

I have been squirrelling away episodes of Supernatural on my PVR to watch over my Christmas holidays! I missed the first few so I'll find them and then binge watch.... then subsequently go into withdrawal! LOL

It wont be too bad. This is only the second time he has been up here to see Emily in about 12 years. I already told him that his visit will probably be limited to Christmas Eve and then the day after Christmas, but we will just see how it goes from there.

Emily and I are obsessed with it! We own the first 11 seasons and we are always having a marathon.

I love it!!! I've been watching Supernatural since season 1. I just got Alex hooked and he tells me he's been binge watching- motoring through the seasons!

Wow- visits few and far between then. Hee-hee- that is not necessarily a bad thing! grins

Thanks Anonymous and Anonymous Shark for the Shark Luminaire presents! Cool. :D OK Shark Snowballs for everyone. :)

If I missed any Sharks, let me know if you want me to throw a Shark Snowball at you. :D

I started late, but we got caught up real quick lol. Emily loves Dean ❤ I bought her a pillow with his face on it, but she turns it over so he wont be looking at her lmao!

Yeah I am glad he lives all the way down in Louisiana.
