I received my package from Darlene in Loleta CA. Sorry I can't read the last name (smudged on return address label) and I don't know her board name so I can't send a PM. I will try to search board names to see if I can figure it out, but if I can't find it, I hope she's reading this site.
Thank you Darlene for all my goodies. She sent me some pretty FQs, chocolate-covered peanuts (my favorite), a darling little bunny figurine, a cute bunny pencil top. Some carrot seeds for my bunnies, a Sunbonnet Sue Quilt Special magazine and some sewing machine needles. Oh, yeah, some Reese's Pieces, my other favorite candy. Thanks again so much; I love everything.

Hi All,
I just had to let you all know about the wonderful package that I received from Pat (AKA Homecare Giver).
Although she had so much going on in her life and world at the moment, she still managed to post and on time! She has been over generous, kind, caring and so giving at a time when she really should be thinking of herself and her family!
Pat I will be PMing you but I just wanted to say a very large thank you.
Hugs to all
Caroline

I did see several say they sent after the cut-off and I am hopeful that they will do better next month. I expect we will see a lot of packages delivered early this week.
Thanks for the wonderful job Lori :)

If yours is coming from across the country it can take a week or so to get there. I live on the west coast and even mailing priority it usually takes a good week or more to get across the country.
This month I mailed mine internationally and on time, but it has not arrived yet - according to tracking. It should arrive sometime this week.

Sometimes packages arrive really quickly and other are slow. I posted on the final posting date (16th) but my package is travelling thousands of miles across the pond, so I think it would take at least a week.
As you said in your post.... lots of packages arriving this week!
Hugs
I agree with you, it is frustrating not to get your package early but there is still time left.
