A board member here sent me a package for my birthay a couple weeks ago....BUT my birthday isnt until Oct 28. And she told me I couldnt open the box, which I have not. Instead, I put it in the closet to wait to open on my birthday. SO...IF I get my Secret Santa package early...in the closet it will go...Out of sight...Out of mind.
And I like the idea of getting a local newspaper in my package..thats a great idea.
