Guess I shouldnt have missed a few days. Have fun on the mini train everyone!

[chesterjes]

friday afternoon

When are you leaving Lloyd?

[dlee]

response to questions:

is there anything new you want that you dont' think came in your Advent package?
- I would love some refill tape for my tape dispenser as I used a lot to wrap my gifts! haha.
- double sided foam squares (different sizes, preferably larger rectangles or squares)
- I really want this tea steeper: http://www.davidstea.com/the-steeper...om/the-steeper but I know it's a bit pricey...
- colbie caillat's christmas cd (but I'm not sure if my buddy got this for me or not...)
- I've been doing a lot more painting lately so maybe some nice acrylic paints?
- eyeliner (any brand) I always seem to need this.

but really. I'm happy with most things. I think I answered the questions pretty thoroughly throughout the train so I think that'll give enough ideas to my new buddy. EXCITING!!!

it's hard to say because I don't know what's in my current package now. man, I can't believe we'll finish one package and be able to unwrap another one right after. wow!

OH! I just thought something I didn't put at all in my advent train. I've recently acquired a number of necklaces and I haven't figured out a nice way to display/hang them. I have a really awesome earring holder but nothing to hang my necklaces on. I put them in a box but they get easily tangled, etc. not sure if that's something but thought I'd through it out there!

allergies: none. but I'm specific about most scented things and have enough lotions/body washes so no need for any of those things. thanks!

Hey new buddy. I've done some stalking but still need some ideas so tell me, is there anything new you want that you dont' think came in your Advent package?

Also i've recently come across some fabulous bodycare deals so since i now have lots to share, do you happen to be in need of any body wash, razors, shave gel, soaps....that kind of stuff?

always can use socks...i have to wear black( doesnt have to be plain they can have designs) at work and DD likes to hide them on me lol

OK new buddy quick question: any allergies in your house (peanuts etc) or major dislikes (scents, foods, anything) and anything you do not allow in your house?

nothing to strong as my asthma will act up
love vanilla berry and citrus scents

DH hid my package for me -after spending an entire evening shaking, sniffing and otherwise investigating my package we decided it is best if he hid it until Saturday. No clue where he put it -I've looked everywhere LOL



Here are a few ideas:
-I always need socks, love funky colours/designs etc
-my favorite "family" picture frame fell off the mantle (thanks to the cat ) and broke, I'd love another black frame with something about family on it
-always need white candles, any shape size. I've filled an old stone fireplace with them
-chocolate and coffee (regular ground) -can never have enough of either
-mittens -I knit but never seem to get around to making myself anything
-something to hang on the door (other than Christmas wreaths etc) from after Christmas until spring, or something for any other holiday other than Christmas (Easter, Halloween, etc) or some kind of "Welcome to the beach" sign for the door...
-rooster weathervane (plastic $ store OK!) want one for on top of the barn -can't find one anywhere that isn't $$$$$$$$$$$$$
-any kind of painting/art -always looking for unique items to hang on the walls
-basket/box/??? to store makeup etc in for top of my dresser
-nightlight
-hair elastics/clips/pins/hairbands
-anything for the girls (who are 3 and 9)
-can always use bodywash, razors, soaps etc
-I LOOOOOOVE homemade gifts -so please feel free to get creative buddy!

OK new buddy quick question: any allergies in your house (peanuts etc) or major dislikes (scents, foods, anything) and anything you do not allow in your house?

We LOVE nuts (probably b/c we are a little nuts, but... )!
I am crazy allergic to perfumed and scented products, even fresh cut flowers...I seem to be fine with food (cucumber, berry, baked goods) scented products... and for some reason, I seem to be fine with the turquoise Unstoppables samples; the pink one on the other hand, no. Instant headache when I brought the sample box in out of the mailbox!

missbee, it's 1-2 homemade items (made by yourself or another person) so I'm assuming everything else can be store-bought =)

Is there an actual post with the rules/guidelines? I know maildate is by the 28th, and that it includes homemade items...Is there a theme, how many gifts, etc?

I am allergic to pine and baby powder scents, and I really dislike black licorice and dried fruit. There isn't much I don't allow in the house except maybe toy guns but my son is a little old for them now anyway. What I really want more than anything is 4 hours of totally uninterrupted sleep so if you can find muzzles for my husband and son, some quiet socks for my dogs feet and a big padded tail covers (they are so loud when they bang them off the walls racing the halls with excitement) some duct tape to tie the cat to a chair with so he will stop knocking stuff off the counter all night then I would LOVE you forever....I just need some sleep and all of the people and critters in my house are so LOUD....sigh. Rant over....again I will be totally thrilled with whatever you send

So is everyone waiting to see what their new buddies get in their advent package before you start shopping or are you starting now?

Both

Well, if they get to be Princesses - I want to be one too!!!

LOL!

**Are you that someone special??? You DEFINATELY deserve an extra special something for all of your hard work here!

Hey new buddy. I've done some stalking but still need some ideas so tell me, is there anything new you want that you dont' think came in your Advent package?

Also i've recently come across some fabulous bodycare deals so since i now have lots to share, do you happen to be in need of any body wash, razors, shave gel, soaps....that kind of stuff?

we are starting to get a little low on men's body wash (gillette, axe, old spice), razors (male and female) are always welcome. don't need any bodywash otherwise but could use Dove bar soap lemongrass scent.

as for anything new that did not come in the advent train.........i have no idea what i got but i would love:

-1/2 pound Reese peanut butter cup
-Dove bar soap lemongrass scent
-Febreeze Air Effects (sky and linen scent or citrus scent)
-Envelopes
-stamps
-packing tape
-Hanes ankle sweat socks (i don't like the really thin socks, must be sweat socks)
-Vaseline Intensive Care lotion (green bottle, aloe and cucumber? scent)
-Crest Pro health toothpaste
-ROLO hot chocolate
-HV huggies/pampers coupons
-T-Disks (Timmy's, maxwell house or nabob coffee, cadbury hot chocolate)
-t-disk carousel or something similar to hold them
-some nice receiving blankets (boy). mine are old and would like some new ones for when we go out. homemade would be awesome, especially ones that would be 1 meter x 1 meter. i had one that size that my mom made and i have no clue where it went

OK new buddy quick question: any allergies in your house (peanuts etc) or major dislikes (scents, foods, anything) and anything you do not allow in your house?

we have one food allergy and that i me and i CANNOT have fresh pineapple. other than that we do not like any harsh scents. i like a faint vanilla scent, fruity scents.

we try not to let our 7 year old have guns. just does not teach the respect for the weapon when they are toys. other than that anything is a go!!

[Melissa13]

no just do a search of posts for your buddy and you can skim just their posts

saw some at SDM did you have insurance on your MIA gift ?

I did get a refund but it was a cute item that you cant really find in stores.

My box is sitting in the living room and I'm doing pretty good! I've only taken it out once and took a pic with my phone but still haven't hooked it up to the computer. My dog actually goes up to it more than me and sniffs it lol.

[Armygirl76]

My son is a little sensitive to scents gets a rash but other than that no allergies

[Armygirl76]

Okay my "3" dogs this is how they sleep all the time

[wendyjane]

bored tired procrastinating (filthy desk with piles of coupon e everywhere :S don't wanna do anything) = sugar low from eating 6? 8? cookies but they were sooooo goood so much for my zumba class
MIL has toddled off to bed and the cats are miaowing for their nightly feeding (hey cat... wanna cookie?)
I crossed my arms like Genie and nodded, I clicked my heels but the crap doesn't put itself away. Hunh. Sucks.

[juliejolie]

For whoever has me for the mini buddy train, I forgot to add these items if you can find it somewhere... As I've been making bento box lunches for my daughter since she started finger foods and eats like a champion!
