I need to get the chocolate and I am waiting for a book to come in.

My partner and I agreed on 3 smalls and I am done with 2 of them.

oh, I know you are relieved!
Iā€™m excited to see my package :slight_smile:
Iā€™m waiting to go to the chocolate shop until just before I am ready to mail,
bec chocolate doesnā€™t last that long around me, LOL
Canā€™t keep temptation around, must ship it off!
Iā€™m pretty sure it will be right at the deadline due to having to order some stuff for
crafting & just life in general these days

I have the books (maybe one more if it arrives in time)!

I know where the chocolate is coming from!

I just have to get to the craft store for an item (hopefully tomorrow). I hope to be done by Monday at the latest.

So exciting!

I have one nearly complete, itā€™s mostly wait time left for that. The second one is off to a good start, and the third is ready to start (but wonā€™t take long once I begin). Theyā€™re all different crafts, so I work on them at different times of day/night, based on how much interference I expect from the kids. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I getcha. Iā€™ve been having anxiety for the past month now, to where I donā€™t want to leave my house. Coordinating with my psychiatrist, but mental health meds take forever to workā€¦

Your chocolate looked pretty tasty on the counter, but I had a bunch in the candy cupboard so it wasnā€™t eaten.

The kids have half-days this week, so that means I can go book & chocolate shopping this afternoon! Woo hoo! And I figured out my craft last night, so Iā€™m feeling purty good about things. :cowboy_hat_face:

Books are purchased, crafting has begun. Still not sure what Iā€™m going to do as far as chocolateā€¦

Chocolate is the hardest part for me too. I donā€™t have any nice chocolate shops open near me anymore. :slightly_frowning_face: But Chocolate is chocolate, as long as it is sweet it should be fine. LOL!

I am not picky about chocolate as long as it isnā€™t Palmer. LOL!

Yeah, you canā€™t really go wrong with the chocolateā€¦ :yum:

Palmer is pretend chocolate. Boo hiss.

The chocolate I got is good and fun, even if not particularly ā€œfancy.ā€ I hope she likes it. :crossed_fingers:t2:

I got a brand I recently tried and thought was good. But it can be found at Whole Foods and Harris Teeter so nothing super fancy but definitely not Palmers or Hersheys!

Noted! Ha! I picked you up some today and it was neither of those.

I got chocolate that is local and good but Iā€™m not sure if itā€™s hard to find nationally or not.
