Well ... huh. Y'all really do like to prove me wrong, don't you?
About a month ago, I predicted that Christmas Crazy would top out at around $5000 - half the "usual" total. There are lots of reasons that I thought we couldn't possibly reach much more than that. A global pandemic is certainly one aspect, but there's also the part where I barely put any effort into this space anymore. Are there people still reading? Because I'm not so sure.
Really. I'm not sure. I uninstalled analytics a few years ago because the code was compromised and some very not cool ads were sneaking in through that door. It was easier to uninstall than to fix and I never reinstalled anything. Because why would I? Whether two people read or two hundred, it's irrelevant. And I pretty much assume it's two people. Always.
But then comes Christmas Crazy and somehow y'all manage to show up and make sure a whole bunch of kids end up having a little joy just in time for the holidays. As of right now, we're at over $6400 worth of joy, which is absolutely amazing as far as I'm concerned.
But! We already know I'm selfish. Let's move that number to $7000, please. Or maybe $8000? I'm done pretending i know what's possible. So, surprise me.
Here's the Amazon wish list.
And here's the Paypal link.
We're going to wrap this whole thing up in the next week, so bring it on.
