    Thank you SS.
    Opened it early this morning and then off to our daughter's house. Just back home, fire stoked and had to write this thank you.
    Wonderful inscribed saw.

    I have a perfect place to hang it. Right beside my stove. More picture tomorrow.
    I also received a folding saw with extra blades and some candy.

    Also received some presents. She will be eating gourmet. StarKist Tuna, packet of kitty balls and a package of catnip. That explains why the cats were interested in the box while it waited for Christmas.
    Haven't tried the catnip yet. They were all already wound up when we came home.
    Thank you SS.

    Please let those of us who have not read that book yet how it is. I have seen it a couple times and always wanted to pick it up.

    In other news, I thoroughly enjoyed opening up my gift this year to find some awesome books, a Tractor Supply gift card, and some New Hampshire maple syrup that my family used on some waffles this morning.

    I was also pretty sure I knew who sent it, but after reading through other posts, the person that I thought had me sent someone else a gift. So, I may have to do some more research when I get back to my actual computer. Doing this sleuthing on an iPhone may not work as well as I thought.

    Long story short(ish), it had been a very blessed Christmas for me and my family. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and great wishes to all for a Happy New Year!!

    We gave one to my daughter this year.

    As we were selecting it off the shelf, some random woman walking by stopped and said "You guys are going to love that...wee just bought one and I can't say how nice it is"

    Have you used it yet?

    Another Thank You to my secret Santa, whoever you may be. It came early, I opened it early, and I got a good amount of wood split before this happened...

    Well my gift receiver figured out who I was almost immediately like within minutes of getting the package:startled::picard: :rofl: :lol:

    I have absolutely no clue who sent mine aside from one tiny clue on the lid of one of the food containers! :rofl: :lol:

    My luck it’s probably the initials for their pet or something totally unrelated to their name....:rofl: :lol:

    I took a picture of the rest of the present.

    The shirt did not come in the package but was used as a background.
    Thanks Scavenger. I felt it was you by the return address but wasn't sure until I turned the saw over today and saw where you signed the piece of art. Beautiful work.
