    Scrub-jay, are you ready? It’s your secret santa time!
    Although I am no Heidi with her crazy mad rhymes,
    I should be able to hold my own being musically inclined.

    Your gift will soon be on its way but first you must guess my name,
    and though your gift be edible, no nuts shall it contain
    for dealing with food allergies I’m sure must be a pain.

    So here you are, your first clues to my identity.
    I’ll narrow things down a bit but try not to make it too easy,
    since half the fun is the guessing game and I don’t want it to end so quickly!

    This time of year must be lovely to see in your neighborhood
    as frost and snow builds out the window during the holidays as it should
    and all the kids look so cute bundled up in their coats and hoods.

    But in the place where I reside the weather is less festive
    which makes it more difficult to feel all that invested
    in the fun of decorating the tree and wrapping all the presents.

    Yet we make do and push on through with our celebrations;
    it may sound crazy but I’d rather see snow than feel like I was on vacation.
    Growing up without four seasons makes me long for relocation!

      Damn, you have skills. I have an idea, but why guess too soon? More clues please!

      And as a side note...I miss the seasonless Christmases I had growing up. *sigh*

        More clues, says you? Well good then we can play a little more!
        I’m glad you’re enjoying my rhymes, I’ve never played this game before.
        Last post I threw out a couple of clues, so now I’ll weave in three and four.

        I’ll start off where I left off last for some continuity.
        The weather I mentioned is warm down here in my community,
        but if seasonless Christmases float your boat this is the place for you to be!

        While our weather preferences may differ, there’s one trait we share indeed:
        we both enjoy some social time but need our privacy
        because you see, you are an INTJ introvert like me!

        Just yesterday I was out back eating lunch on the porch
        and noticed my neighbor once again cut the privacy bushes too short.
        Now she can see over which irks me, I like my yard enclosed like a fort.

        While I was out there though and the weather was so toasty warm that day,
        I thought, you know I should repaint my toes a lovely shade of gray
        since I still wear open-toed shoes down here practically everyday.

        So I pulled out my polish and chose a color to make my look complete,
        though I must admit it was a challenge that I was only barely able to meet
        since in my current condition it’s getting harder and harder for me to reach my feet!

            Niener I am!! You’ve found me out; I thought that last one might give me away
            but it was a fun game while it lasted, I enjoyed playing with you scrub-jay!
            And as for your gift, it’s just shipped so it should be there any day.

            Your gift should arrive in an Amazon box but they were being a bit of a pain,
            they wouldn’t let me add a note with your gift for me to explain
            so that you would know it’s from your secret santa when it’s obtained.

            But in the box you’ll find some tasty goodies I hope you’ll enjoy
            that shouldn’t contain any ingredients that your family need avoid,
            so here’s wishing a happy holidays to you, your hubs, your girl and little boy!!

                Did you get your present last week? With all the porch thieves this time of year just want to make sure it got there okay!
