Well shoot. I missed this part. For 3 months out of the year, I work as Santa's stunt double, the rest of the year I'm undercover.
Something.
Will add more later. 🎅

Friends, Family, and everyone in between! I am launching my annual Santa's Stockings campaign to once again benefit the Samaritan Inn of McKinney. Only this time we have a few extra ways of making a difference. You can now donate directly to the website: www.santas-stockings.org No longer will your donation have a cut taken out. Every penny goes to the organization and is now tax deductable. You can go to our Amazon Wish List to purchase items to be sent to me for packaging. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3VRGSFL4ENB4R?ref_=wl_share And we have an eBay site where we are auctioning off items donated to help raise funds for the organization where new items will be listed all the time: https://www.ebay.com/usr/santas_stockings Custom D20 with the charity's logo: https://www.chaospixiemagic.com/product-page/santa-s-stockings-d20 If you have an item you want to donate for auction, please reach out to me, and if you wish to volunteer your time to help with the organization, please let me know. I want to have everything wrapped up and donated by Saturday, December 20, 2025! Thank you all for your years of support.

Please help if you can. I've followed @justamomnamedmm.bsky.social on here for a while and I can vouch for her kind heart and genuineness.

Hi, friends. I’m writing this to ask for some help. My little house panther needs surgery asap to treat pyometra (potentially fatal uterine infection). The hospital can do the surgery on Monday morning if I can come up with the money.

I took my social studies pre-test and scored an 85. I missed 6 questions; some because I second guessed myself, one because the question was poorly worded, and at least one because I didn't know it.
To celebrate I built some Lego.

Please help a good person who also happens to be a small business owner. She could use the assistance and you could use a little pampering.

Please consider checking out my shop, this small business mama is struggling big time. Down to the last $3 and I need to get some groceries.

Every share and purchase means the most to this small business mama. My shop is currently my only income.

On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me... three French hens? 🐔🐔🐔 Franc-ly, here at Santa’s Stockings, we’d much rather you give a donation. According to the research, the holiday season is a vital time for giving, with December accounting for roughly 40% of annual online one-time revenue. We have just 4 full days left in 2025! You can help us reach our goals for 2026 and secure your tax-deductible gift for 2025 while spreading some serious Community Magic.

It's days like today that I am reminded of the immortal words from A Christmas Carol:
Light the lamp, not the rat!

Today, as we celebrate the warmth and Magic of Christmas, we also honor the heart of our mission. Santa’s Stockings was established in the memory of Michael J. McGowan, a name that represents the very spark of kindness and love of Christmas that fuels our work. His legacy lives on through every act of Heartfelt Generosity delivering "Joy, One Stocking at a Time" to a neighbor experiencing homelessness in Collin County. The essence of Christmas is in giving, and we are honored to transform the holiday experience for those overlooked in Michael's name. Merry Christmas, Michael. #SantasStockings #CommunityMagic #Inspiration #ChristmasJoy #CollinCounty #DirectImpact

This Santa got the urge to craft again and finished a long dormant lightsaber.
This one already has a home.
