As do I, this specific cancer charity helps those with the disease and the family too. They help the families prepare for everything to come and even the death of the loved one. They had a nurse with my Grandma when my Granddad passed because he wanted to be at home surrounded by family. The nurses who do that job are amazingly strong, I know I wouldn't be able to handle that in my job.

That sounds like an amazing charity! We have a lovely community hospice group in my area that does the same thing. I can only wish the world had access to groups like that. I respect any health professional. It is not an easy job but I appreciate the work they do. If you need someone to talk to, I'm always here <3

Loving your HA btw. That plum hair is lovely :)

Congratulations on your new job! Are you enjoying it? I'm okay. Busy with work and projects. Looking forward to the holidays and all the events coming up.

That sounds like an amazing day. It sounds like you worked hard with all those events but for a very worthy cause. I hope everyone had a great time and you're taking a well deserved break. You did something truly special with that. I'm fine. Life is providing me with lots to do though. I could do with a little less to get done but on the other hand I enjoy being busy.

Hey, how are you feeling? Everything okay?

Glad to have you with us! Looks like the gang's all here for the Secret Santa.

Looks like we've got enough people to have a Secret Santa. I'll pull together an official announcement in October and start getting people partnered up. Let me know if anyone else wants to join in.

Still sore but trying to walk around the house more to help in the healing process. I'm still trying to rest I promise :) Not doing any heavy lifting. How are you?

OMG Haiiii! Long time no see <3 Loving your pirate HA. It's awesome. Hope all is well!

Sure haha! Deffo missed when I can wake up late and be with fam 24/7 but I need to challenge myself and interact with others :) Yea I won't be active around events sadly due to work

Can we make the cap 5 million this year for gifts? I think last year was 1 mil? Most of us dont care if we get lower gifts (seriously its the thought that counts!) but i love giving items in my wardrobe I dont use anymore and some of them are higher price now bc theyre older..

I'm okay, just recovering from having my back sorted. It's something I've been having treated for a while now so I'm used to it. Just for a day or so I hurt like anything. I'll be fine by tomorrow. Glad to hear you're getting some exercise. You're right not to push it though.

You'd be surprised. Even if you can't spend too much time online, there's usually someone who can help out with getting things.

You can give anything you want to, it's up to you. You can go for just the things on the chatterbox wishlist or you can give anything else your Secret Santa might want at any price. The Chatterbox Wishlist is meant to be a starting point and I keep it low in case anyone can't get much in the way of gifts together. The limit is just to help out. Feel free to give more if you want. But I'll ask what everyone wants the level to be with the official start.

Oh no :( Hope you feel better soon. Glad you are being treated for it atleast. Best to take it easy yourself too :P

I am with Hollykins on this. I don't mind the limit as I understand the reasoning behind it, but I like to spoil my person with an assortment of gifts. For me, each gift is really a lot of thought behind it so sometimes I just don't look at the cost as ultimately I just want everyone to be happy. I get both sides, you got this :)

Yayy! So excited for secret Santa!! Glad we had brought people.

I’ve been crazy busy today. My family came to town to visit this weekend. On top of that hubs and I went to a couple bonfires and had a picnic because it’s finally fall weather here! At least for now. It’s supposed to hit pretty high temps this week again.

I'm happy for the minimum to be increased, like the others said, I tend to spoil people. The more stuff in the actual SS wishlist the more I understand what the person actually want :)

Hey guys! I'm super excited to make a spooky HA for halloween. (Probably my favorite time of year to dress up my avatar and make her look as horrifying as possible)

There was a black wig I used to have (long straight hair with a pony tail or messy bun on top) ... I can't remember what it's called. If anyone knows I'd appreciate it so I can snag it for some halloween HAs. I know it was my go-to hair style for this time of year

Looking through my wardrobe for you... was it messy and black?

[item2=Rats Nest Wig]

Hm no that one isn't it. But thank you for checking :)

There are so many black wigs out there that it was hard to look for one that you described

That's alright - i'll sift through the wardrobe and see if i can find it. I know i'll recognize right when i see it!

I love your Halloween HA - so festive and cute!

Thanks although I'm not sure which one you can see. I keep seeing 2 different ones show up on different parts of the site... it's rather annoying!

That was happening to me the other day! The one I saw was the witch... and now I'm seeing your elf/fairy.

I love them both!

EDIT: And it's doing it to me again -_-

Hey friends. My sister's husband was killed in a terrible accident on the 1st. If you pray or want to send good thoughts, would you remember her and their two little boys? Heartbroken. :(

HI! Was thinking of you. I hope you are feeling better. <3

You know how much I love that event!! Can't wait. :) :) :)

How devastating! May there be many prayers for the family including mine.

how about Elegant Oriental Wig

YES! That's the one! Thank you thank you!

Oh no! Prayers for your entire family. I am lost for words.
