Rather than give toys or clothes, I'm giving ornaments to the under-18 bunch of nephews, niece, and greats.
In addition, the great-niece in Louisville will be receiving gifts to share with her classmates.
I'm presenting Ally with chemistry.
I have had a bag full of National Chemistry Week items, saved specifically for her from SERMACS last year, in the living room closet, waiting.
No longer will they languish!
I've packed every bit of it into a $21 Priority Mail box and sent it to her.
As well as those ChemCatchers, she'll have the magical self-inflating balloons, kits for making uv-detecting armbands, colorful pencils, and a fine selection of stickers featuring Minni-Mole and her friends!
Perfect fun for sixth-graders!
Plus, there are the "Saving Savannah's Water" activity books from the City of Savannah and the 2019 NCW "Celebrating Chemistry" activity books!
I'm sure her science teacher is going to love these, too -
especially as I've included enough for next year's class!
That's because I had some intended for the Asbury Angells youth group, but that program has changed.
What was that about a Christmas ornament for that active great-niece?
Well, she's getting a Fish of Many Colors!
You know, like the Coat of Many Colors that was mentioned in Dolly Parton's song?
It'll be like an inside joke between me and her!
(smile!)
The fish is felt, so it won't break if the dog knocks it off the tree.

As for me, I've been pretty busy on this first Faustina Friday date night of December!
After the Post Office, I was off to "Half-Brothers", a fairly silly, brand-new, guy movie that featured a lot of different US locales.
That was wonderful!
Then I popped over to Dickey's for some barbeque and happened upon their Cue-ban sandwich -
mighty tasty treat!
Especially when followed up with pecan pie!
Now, I'm off to "Die Hard" for the first time this weekend -
yippee-ki-yay, y'all!
(smile!)
