i have not forgotten my SS! Package has been sent :)

Mailed my package this morning!!

Excu-u-u-u-u-use me! I'm only after MY socks, which you seem intent upon wearing! :(

:::::::: searching empty sock drawer for some old rags, to keep my poor freezing toes warm ::::::::::

Just fix a batch of each, then bring them down to the Hole for us to sample. That'll help you decide which recipe to share! :thumbup:

Mine has been delivered to my SP. Tlrnhi, didn't forget to PM, just got the label from Dad and will get a PM to you. I just got home, slept on the couch at work the past two nights as we had a huge deadline! So Dad took the package to the PO for me.

And my father just said, " I forgot to tell you, you got a package while you were gone!" I ran to check and it was from my SP! I hid it till opening day - THIS year I told my mom where so I don't have to hunt it down again!

My SS package is here!!! :) THANK YOU, THANK YOU, Secret Santa!!! :)

I gently shook it and something shifted. What can it be? Doesn't seem to be anything alive, thank goodness! :thumbup: No sounds are coming from it. Now for the lonnnnnnng wait, to open it. :p

SOOOOO.....does it smell like lime jello?????

Now that my SS package is en-route to my giftee I am more excited than ever. My SSP has not posted once to this thread (though she has to others) and I am hoping she will post pictures once she gets her package. It is hard not to PM her and tell her to, lol! I want to know how she likes her presents!

I am the WORST secret keeper.

Bring Nessie a pair of socks, too. She's gonna need them.

Hint to my Secret Santa receiver: your package will be mail later today or early tomorrow. Hopefully before the snow we are suppose to get. It's forecasted a trace to 4" inches are possible, starting sometime tomorrow. I trying to add last minute items from my stash that you may like. I hope you like everything. I'll be monitoring for you comments.

:D No, I admit I did take a tiny sniff :o . . . but I think one of the postal workers may have been having a cigarette, so I had to back off in a hurry. :D It'll have plenty of time to air-out, before opening day. :thumbup:

Oh, just tell me and you'll feel much better! :D

No, no. Don't worry about poor, old, freezing Neesie. I'll just wrap my poor, old, freezing toes in rags, to keep them warm. If that doesn't do the trick, I'll fashion myself some boots, from duct tape. I'll be okay . . . . :(

Hurry, hurry!!! Today's the last day to mail! :shock:

Stay warm, in all of that snow! Here in the TX boonies, we usually get our 'snow' in the form of freezing rain. :thumbdown:

Hey, it's somewhat cooler here today. 71 out right now, and cloudy, but no chance of rain. Sniff.

Hmmm, I'm thinking November 22 sounds like a better opening date! Why wait three weeks once everyone has their package? Not sure I have that much willpower....

We've got 41 degrees here in Mississippi today... he same temp as in Alaska!

Sent my package on its way today... and ain't sayin' where it's goin'! But Neesie, there just may be a pair of socks tucked inside if you can snatch them as it wings its way over Texas. :D

Got home to find an excruciatingly tempting box outside my door! Came from my SS who lives just up the road in Lafayette, home of the Purdue Boilermakers.

Now I'll have to dig through my Christmas cooky recipes and find a fave to send to PenniF.

Cooky.................Thank you so much for the link to view their Christmas catalog & recipes. I am so anxious to look at all of the goodies!! I hope the calories don't jump on me while I am just looking!!
:D :D :D :D

I GOT A PACKAGE TODAY!!! .....{{dance dance wiggle wiggle}} ..... it came from WAY north of me...tho still in the USofA. It's sitting on the chair here in my office - keeping my ornament swap package company and making "na na-na na na" noises. It's very heavy and goes {{jingle jingle}} when i shake it.
THANK YOU in advance Secret Santa swap Pal !!!! Sooooooo exciting !!!!

MizMelly....
not very nice to tease those of us down "deep in the heart" who are not all that used to this cold stuff this early in the year about the 71 degree temp where you are!!!

Be careful or you'll find Neesie on your doorstep warming her tootsies !!

I picked up my package from the post office today. So excited, can't wait 'til the 7th!

Just waiting for my invitation. :thumbup:

Only if you wear socks, Neesie! I have cement flooring.....

MORE proof that I need those socks!!! :D

PenniF, I will get a cookie recipe or two to you. I was going to MAKE them today so I would have a pic (and the youth were going to put the cookies in the bags for the shut in members) but our oven died on us, so I went oven shopping instead, and the kids are baking at someone else's house tomorrow!

LOLOLOLOL! I made it, pant, pant, pant.....ran to the post office and mailed my package for my Santee! Sorry Sulabug, I was going to take pictures of the goodies but only remembered after the box was taped shut!

Oh Geez....that really stinks.:(..sorry....but then again, i guess better today than right in the middle of Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.

I have my knee socks on, heaters on etc. Awful early for this Artic stuff!!!

ya, & she didn't tell you she had to stand on it to get it closed either!
I'm still waiting.............sniff, sniff, somebody forgot me...............sniff, sniff.

I took a pic of what i semt to my ss---after I wrapped them.
still no package here yet but expect it will show up soon--the ice, snow and cold is probably slowing the mailman down. in meantime, i have sewn 3 sides of binding on the QOV and last side is partially pinned ( was called to supper so will finish tomorrow). And I got the Grandpa quilt layered and on frame and one block quilted. And finished embroidering one of the pillowcases I am giving to future DIL for Xmas this year.
Nothing like getting Xmas gifts done early especially since i really havent spent that much. the pillowcases were brand new still in package at second hand store--got them for $2.99. the fingertip towels i did for the other future DIL were bought at same place and for same price. $5.00 spent and 2 gifts done. I like those type of bargains.

peek at Grandpa quilt so you know what I am talking about

I haven't seen any posts from my recievee...she should have gotten hers a couple weeks ago...it says it was delivered. She posts occassionally on other threads, so she must be very busy too. Still waiting on mine. :)

My Secret Santa received her package.

I received my Santa package today....from Santas Elf.......AND. I think I know who it is!!!! :) :)
Head off in the AM on a Carribbean cruise will check in the week of Thanksgiving!!!

With an additional coupon I can get this craft carousel from Micheals for $20.00. I bought one for myself and really like it and thought for the price it would make a dandy gift for next years SS exchange. Here is the link http://www.michaels.com/search?q=craft%20carousel What do you think, would you be interested in getting this as a gift?

My secret receivee got her package a little while ago. I checked the confirmation number and it's been delivered.
Now I can wait !!!patiently!!! for the the little postal truck to bring mine. Please hurry!!!!

Thank you to my ss! My package was awaiting me when we got home tonight! What fun! :)

It's unusually cold here, too! We got cheated out of our autumn! :(

June, that does look handy. It's probably classier than my WalMart shower caddy, huh? I have the clear one. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sterilite-...Caddy/36128378 :D

Sounds like great timing! Have fun on your cruise! :)
