I think our weather saved up all the rain from the summer, and we are getting all of it at once. We have had some lightening and thunder storms along with the rain, and the temperature has dropped noticeably! I miss summer. crying
We normally make brain teaser puzzles, and these year it is a triangle shaped peg puzzle. There are enough pegs for the holes, except one, and the goal is to jump the pegs over one another until there is only one peg left. They are a ton of fun to make! We make 15 or so at a time, so we have enough for Christmas, so it is also a bit of a puzzle for us to figure out how to make them efficiently.
This was your last week of work? Are you on vacation, or finished completely?
I have seen the trailer for St. Vincent, and it looks pretty funny! If you go see it, let me know what you think. smile
Tomorrow I am going to go see a friend I haven't seen for a little, which will be great! She lives almost 2 hours away, so I don't always get a chance to see her, and our days off don't always line up. We are going to just spend some time chatting and catching up. I'm really looking forward to it!

Ah, that sounds lovely, to me! xD I'm the complete opposite - I love thunderstorms and cannot wait for it to get colder~ The summer can stay away for as long as it wants and more.
Oh, that sounds awesome! That's an awesome gift. x3
How long does it normally take you to complete one?
I'm finished completely. I just have to find something else now.
It does! I adore Bill Murray. <3 I'll definitely let you know!
Aw, that's awesome - I hope you had fun! <3

Hey guys, just letting you know I may not be on as much, and at worst the charity might go on another official hiatus. I don't know for sure, but life isn't treating me very fairly for a while which is why I haven't been very chatty.
In case I disappear, I decided to give a heads up just in case.

I hope things start getting better for you! It's way more important for you to take care of yourself than this charity.

I'm officially putting the charity on hiatus, for how long is unknown, I don't even know if it'd be short term or long term.
Since the funds are low, and the charity is fairly quiet anyhow, I think now will be a good time.
You are still free to chat here, but contests will be paused and there will be no donations.
I appreciate the time and effort you put into this charity. Thank you for your generosity, enjoyable conversations, and a for creating such a positive environment to relax in. I wish you all the best, and I look forward to hearing more from you when things are going better. I hope you will let us know when you return. heart

At least summer and winter each are love by someone. This way, no one gets left out! What kind of activities do you get up to with the cold, wet, weather?
To complete one, it would probably take 30 minutes to cut and sand, but the finishing always takes the longest. In general, we wait about a day between coats of tung oil, and put on about 5 to 8. It only takes about 5 minutes to put on a coat, but then you have to wait 30 minutes before you run the puzzle down.
I wish you all the best in finding the next bit of work. I hope you find something you enjoy!
I did have fun, thanks! It is always nice to catch up with friends. She has a kid, so it was an interesting experience to observe a toddler. I don't have kids right now, and after spending the afternoon around one, I'm kinda happy I don't have any at this point in time.

True, true.
I usually like to stay inside and curl up with a good book and a cup of tea. <3 But sitting out on the porch when its cold or rainy is always fun, too. x3
I assume you like to stay inside and avoid it? xD
Well, no wonder you're starting so early. xD The many coats sound like the most annoying part. But I'm sure its very satisfying when you complete one!
Thank you~! <3
Good, I'm glad! c:
Toddlers are... interesting to say the least. xD I'm glad I don't have kids either - there's no need to rush. Have them when you're ready. c:
By the way, I saw St. Vincent today - I thought it was great. x3 I could see it getting an Oscar or two, actually. The acting was wonderful and the whole movie had a bit of everything. I definitely recommend it.
