And yes, I did post on here the very day I got my package in the mail! A little common courtesy IMHO goes a long way!

I'm beginning to wonder about these swaps. Between never receiving a pincushion in that swap and this SS I'm losing my enthusiasim for these things :oops:

I've never been disappointed with a swap on this board! I'm sorry that you have had troubles with your swaps:-(

This noon i pick up my secret santa gift from the post office. Unfortunately there is a big crack on it. It must been a very anxious journey :cry:
Now I hope there was nothing small inside which was falling out.
But iīm happy to receive and canīt hardly wait to open it complete.

My gift seems to be still on his journey. So dear SS donīt be afraid...it will come, iīm sure, but the way is looooooong and i send it at the last minute :oops:

For those that haven't received a package yet, please do not fret.
I'm doing everything I can to find out if the package has been sent.
I've had a few people who are just sending today due to illnesses in the family or themselves.
I DO understand the disheartedness, HONEST, I do!
I have been getting VERY upset with those that have failed to send on time because they had life's issues get in the way, but some also knew about these issues beforehand. I have a standard PM that I send to those that have told me they are just now sending that states my displeasure to this.
I'm not sure if I will be doing Secret Santa again next year or not.
Don't get me wrong...I LOVE doing this, but when people cannot follow simple instructions, it's just not fun.

I do want to thank everyone in advance for all the goodies that have been sent to me. I did get another squishy envelope while I was gone. Neighbor told me that it was talking to her when she took it out of the mailbox. lol
I think I'm going to be opening packages for a good long time. Sure hope that there is no frogs with thongs on in any of them. hehe

hooRay!!!! I received my secretest santa package. It arrived while we were out-of-town (I never doubted that it wouldn't) and the postman delivered it today! *dance* *giggle* it Is fun to receive presents, isn't it? Especially one from Germany! My goddaughter danced for Stutgardt for many years, and then moved to Flanders and is with that ballet company now. I love finding little extra excitements and significant things like that. Thank you Secret Santa! xoxo

YEAH!!!! I just got back from the post office with my Secret Santa gift!!!!
For those that are still waiting - I looked at the date my gift was mailed out and was shocked!!!! It was mailed on Nov. 8th! 21 days to get to me!! Unbelievable!
But I wanted to say thank you in advance to my SS and also a big thank you to Terri for putting up with all of us and doing such a great job with this swap!!!!
