WOW! the first day and we are 1/4 thru the list already????

We started a day early and 5 people skipped in a row. :erm: :rolleyes: :giggle:

Yeah, how come so many people are skipping?

Dunno. It must be January. There's been a lot of skipping in other boxes, too. I didn't bother to see if it was the same people or not :lol:

She'll probably be jetting about in some far distant place but we are so far ahead this month it'd do no harm to wait a bit for her :)
