[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 563033, member: 84"] Well, the letter doesn't bother me too much. It's because she never changed her voter registration. She'd have to walk into the center of town to do so. Although I told those people all during the darn election neither her or M lived at this address. If they don't answer the door I can just stick it inside her screen door or tape it to the door. But she's sort of acting like she wants contact again.......so who knows. I wouldn't make a special trip to do it, for certain. Janet, the whole icing on the cake thing might be true. Probably is true. And if she did sign them up for everything.....not sure how that is going to work out for her. Our county is hurting more than ever, more people are out of work (I don't see how seems like 2/3 of the county already is) so I'm doubting contributions for such things are going to be at an all time low while demand is at an all time high. I've been watching for the donation posts on fb both for our local toy giveaway and for the bikes from santa one. Nothing from either and usually by now they've already started. I have bikes to donate and some of the nice yard sale toys that would make a child happy come xmas morning. But that won't be happening. I've scaled down major due to budget. Gifts are going to "appear" odd as it is going to depend on price as well as the item suiting the person it's going to. Like that tool bench with all the tools. I paid 15.00 for it. It looks new. All tools are there. It's from the 80's and is the exact same thing Travis had growing up. New they run what at least 50.00 and you don't have much with them.
