On this Christmas Eve, we are in the season of giving.  Not just to each other but for all the world.  Giving of ourselves through random acts of kindness, through helping the needy, through prayers for our troops that will not be with family, and so many more.

I finished and delivered a garden sign this weekend to a family that is spending their first Christmas without their 24 year old son who tragically lost his life in June.  Needless to say a lot of love and compassion went into making this sign for them.  (Pictures later).

Anyone else finish up projects "just in time"?

Well, they were finished in time but not in the mail, yet.

Delivered one to our friend, who also wants 2 more for her daughters B'days, and the other one gets mailed to Mom in Calif.

June, my wife, wants at least 8 more for grand daughters and others!!

Going to be a busy first part of the new year! May have to keep the Santa suit on and get the Elf's to help out!!

Thought I'd get the last two trivets done today but a bad case of the back door trots put an "end" in those plans.

Harry - you have been busy.  It's always nice to have future projects to do.

Lewis, hate those kind of trots.

I did get a couple complete today.

That's going to be some clock! Going to look great!

May have to make us one of the poor, retired signs. Is that a pattern of yours?

All my projects got finished ahead of time and the last ones picked up Sunday afternoon.

Been under the weather since Friday and today is the first day I have really felt like getting on the computer.

Fred that's going to be a sweet looking clock with beautiful fret work. Your doing a marvelous job!  

I have a co-worker that does nothing but scroll and has just completed a motorized Ferris Wheel that is beautiful. I'll see if I can get him to join TPW and post his latest creation. He does some beautiful work.

That's a shame Lewis. You need to install a throne in the shop or a saw in the throne room.
