Had every intention of using Priority USPS but when I got there on Wednesday the line was forever long and only one clerk. Couldn't go back on the 14th so hopped on over to UPS and paid a bit more for less service LOL my receipt didn't give me me an estimated time of arrival.
So ... anyway ... long story to just say that some of us who didn't use Priority Mail our packages will take 3 to 5 days longer to be delivered. |
Been reading the posts and trying to stay caught up. Do believe I forgot to mention that my SS package did go out. Does someone maybe already have it...or could it still be on it's way? Terrible getting older and forgetting when you mailed things! I did post when I received my package. Been a month that it has been here torturing me. Do not worry dear sender...I have not broke down and opened early. The package is receiving much love and care. I give it a pat, a squeeze, and a cuddle each time I walk by it! :thumbup:

No package yet at my house. Just letting my SS know in case she sent it to me and is wondering if it arrived.:)
|
Sent my package yesterday, GOT my package today....my 16-y/o son...open it mom, they will never know! Hadn't I taught these kids integrity? Bahahahaha...candy trumps integrity!
|
Yes, yes, yes, mine has arrived today, doing the happy dance.
|
I didn't have time to get to the post office yesterday to check out P.O. Box (small town, no street delivery), but I checked today and -- I received a package from Secret Santa! Now I'm struggling -- where to hide it from myself???
|
We'll, another night I come home from work to find that hubby has placed my package in the driveway so I would see it first thing when I got home! He is really too much. I am beginning to wonder if he and my secret Santa are in cahoots with each other!!
|
Shoot! I'm too excited about this package. It's been in the house for less than an hour, and it's driving me crazy! May have to give it to my husband to put into his shop -- I'm scared to go in there (weird pounding and grinding noises can be heard at times). How can I wait for Dec. 8???
|
I received my SS package today-I too am so excited! Where to hide it-have to hide it???????????????????
|
My package is calling me from the corner...is there an elf in there? Thanks Secret Santa for keeping my curiosity up...cannot wait!
|
RwQuilts, Your mug rugs are so cute...I would never have thought of using the selvages like that...great gifts ...thanks for sharing the pictures!
|
3 weeks 1 day & 6 hours to wait!
|
:(:(:(:(:( Nothing yet guess I will drown my sorrows in wine or is that whine?:(:(:(:(

:D :D :D :D |
I hope my (recipient) has received her package- my delivery confirmation said it would be there Friday, but I do not see that she posted as received- I will keep my fingers crossed it arrived safe & sound..
I have not received one yet- but still have plenty of time so no worries. my only worry was getting one out on time. |
Good morning! I see some don't have their packages yet, but should very shortly, since the deadline is now past for sending. Ya'll must be extra special! Mine had been tormenting me for awhile now! Clue's still haven't really fit me, so still haven't figured out who my Santa was. I do know that it jingles though!
I've got a very busy day today with the Birthday boy. We replaced the goldfish last night & they're still alive this morning, so I guess we'll have them around for awhile now. Found out we should have put some stuff in the water to dissipate the chlorine in the water, so we did that & they're fine. It's been a long time since I'd had any kind of fish tank & had forgotten that little tidbit. Hint for today: There's a lot of history to your state. |

Guess I'm in with all of you for the wine and whine :D Haven't received yet either. Maybe today will be the day

Clue for my giftee, your city is in according to Wikipedia one of the highest points of elevation in your state.
It seems there is something in my box that is gnawing away at a corner trying to escape. I think I should make sure it is safe and let it out! I am roasting pumpkin today so tomorrow I will make some pumpkin butter for those of us on the rim. |
WELCOME EVERYONE to the WHINE party in the hole. It is getting pretty loud down here & the goodies are in abundance, so join us any time. I will however be leaving, just long enough to check if my SS package has arrived yet today, but will return post haste!! Good Luck to all on arriving packages!!
:D :D :D :D |
Hey Cindy.............wish that grandson of yours a "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" for all of us. I hope you are having a great time.
:D :D :D :D Hint for my SSantee today: You know how to quilt!! |
T.L. in GA - your santa package arrived today, thank you. No board name, but you know who you are!
|
I got a package today from a Jolly 0. Elf in Huntsville, Alabama today. To my partner - yours is scheduled for delivery early next week according to the tracker.
|
Just received my package!!!! Thank you Secret Santa! My 4 year old Granddaughter wanted me to open it and I told her I had to wait because there are rules. She said "no fair" lol
|
My package is here it has a hole in one corner thinking I should check to see if everythings ok
|
I received my package today from my secret santa. Thanks and very excited to see what is inside.
|
I received MY package today too!!:thumbup: It's from a "Holly Snowman". Imagine having such a seasonal name around this time of year!! LOL It's a nice big, heavy box. Darn...now I'll be with the others fighting the temptation to NOT open it. But I'll be good and wait. Thank you ahead of time to my SS who ever you are!!:)
|
Doing the "happy dance" my SS package arrived today:thumbup:. Can I still party in the hole? I have a bottle of coconut rum, and some juice to mix with it. I just made a fresh batch of brandy slush for those that don't like rum.

My SS got their package today!!! Really hope they like black and white and red. I've had mine for weeks. Ready to open...it has been sitting by the shoe area since it got here. I see it daily and my three year old keeps trying to open it. Fun times.
