Haven't gotten mine as yet.

STAR 11-21-2009 01:35 PM

Haven't got mine yet.

I did get another pkg last night though, fabric that I bought from another member. My DH and kids were yelling at me and about took it from me because they thought I was opening my SS pkg!! :shock: :shock:

sandpat 11-21-2009 01:42 PM

Darn package guards..... :lol: :lol: :lol:

CajunQuilter2 11-21-2009 01:49 PM

BTW Sharon, son called today. He tells me "Mom, I don't know whats going on, have some strange mumbling coming from that package, should I open it to see whats in it" LOL

Gwyn 11-21-2009 02:25 PM

I thought the date was Dec. 13th. What is the deal with the 7th? Gwyn

beachlady 11-21-2009 02:46 PM

Sharon just copied that from last year. This year it is the 13th.

Janstar 11-21-2009 02:49 PM

I have'nt recieved my SS yet!

Gwyn 11-21-2009 02:52 PM

Oh, okay. Thanks, Gwyn

kwhite 11-21-2009 02:56 PM

No package here yet either.

Gwyn 11-21-2009 03:02 PM

Give it time. The postal service just isn't what it used to be. Must be patient. Gwyn

Janstar 11-21-2009 03:11 PM

Not when Christmas packages are involved!!!!!!

STAR 11-21-2009 03:15 PM

Ok I checked the mail today and I got a package!!!! :mrgreen:

but I thought it looked familiar so I checked out the thread and...........

Sandpat!! my little box looks just like your brown little box from Kris Kringle!! so hhhmmmm this is suspicious :roll: but you are one lucky girl to get 2 pkgs!!

sandpat 11-21-2009 03:48 PM

Hmmmm.......must ponder this.....yours looks like my Kris Kringle box???? That one must be the "imposter"...just as I thought! I'm not too sure I'm lucky...this will drive me double bonkers!

DH said.."I know exactly what I'd do.....OPEN THEM BOTH!!!!" I told him he was an enabler....not good for me to be around right now.

PS...separated the boxes...now I hear muffled rumblings coming from not just 1, but 2 rooms.... :roll:

Ninnie 11-21-2009 03:48 PM

No SS package here yet, but that's ok, The only voices I hear are the usual ones coming from my head :roll: :roll: Saying things like "you need more material" and " that chocolate won't make you fat", things like that :shock: :shock:

We really have to set a time and get the word out. Terri, you are 5 or 6 hours earlier than EST? Our 10 a.m. would be your 4 or 5 a.m. too early for you.
Our noon would make it 6 or 7am, for some, still kinda early.
Our 3 p.m. would make it...wait a minute...I think it would be getting to be the next day for you....ugh! I am so mixed up :roll:
You name it, I'll be there :mrgreen: How's that for cooperation? :wink:
(Santa...psst, Santa! I want a laptop! 8) )

your too little if the lid/top closed by mistake it would squish you. maybe that is not such a bad idea.

Now, Peachy, is that a very nice thing (Oh Santa! :mrgreen: ) to say to Mousie?
Santa knows I am little and would bring me a laptop that is mouse-size.
I'm thinking he's gonna bring you a chunk of coal that is peach-size!
You better be careful what you type, I think Herman Debox can read, and my Squishy Santa told me that he knew Herman Debox. He says Herman is a reasonable fellow. I'd hate for your box to run behind your favorite chair and change into his mighty box suit to defend the underdogs. Going by your 'frog' comments and all, I'm thinking it doesn't bode well for you, Peachy :roll:

Charlee 11-21-2009 03:59 PM

Mine has started to whisper....and my Santa told me to open it early on the 1st!! It's sitting there on the shelf in my room...I've only touched it once since I put it there...just to pick it up to ask if it was ok! It answered me, but was hard to understand! I think it was something like, "Please let me OUT!"...

Dilemmas...

sandpat 11-21-2009 03:59 PM

I'm thinking the same thing little mousie. I think Miss Peachy has been just a little bit tooo vocal for Santa's taste. I'd be really careful if I were her.... :roll:

Oh..and Santa..if you are listening...it would be great to bring little mousie a faster connection when you drop off that laptop. :wink:

SOOOOOOOOOOOO ............if you think you have an imposter why don't you just open it. :P :P

diannemc 11-21-2009 04:56 PM

I haven't gotten mine yet..but that is ok...cause I do believe in Santa,,I do believe in Santa!!!! LOL

Faster connection? I'm all over that, Patti!
(Santa, you hear that, tell your elves to take note that Patti is being a very thoughtful Santa helper :D )
After Star said her package looked like yours Patti, I got to thinking, and went and looked. This is what I saw :shock: :

Look like anything you've seen lately????

I wouldn't trust Patti I bet she is your SS and sent a package to herself so that it looked like yours and throw you off guard. That's probably why she took the picture. I think it could also be she did it to make everyone jealous, so that we would think she was soooo special ( whining while saying it) that she got 2. Also think about this Shadow matched people up, you're both doing Dear Jane and both like the Civil War she has to be yours. Patti you didn't fool me.

PATTI IS A POOH... PATTI IS A POOH.... PATTI IS A POOH !!!!!!!!!!!!!! You didn't make me jealous one bit. raspberries

Because I'm hearing packages talk or because of what I hear it saying? :D

PEACH!!!!
I think my Squishy Santa needs to send ESP message to your "Herman Debox", and tell him to throw some cold water on you!
You need to snap out of it! That 'evil Froggie" on your left shoulder, sure has a big mouth and has it to your ear. Wake up, Peach. He has you under his control. Do you need Mousie to whip out her cape and come save you? I hate to say it, but if it comes to that...Mousie might have to take drastic measures. Might need an ice bath...put peaches in freezer?
I hear they get soggy.

See told you :wink: LOL

Sorry for any confustion I created by posting last years date and times... just wanted to show how the different time zones are affected :oops:

jbsstrawberry 11-21-2009 05:43 PM

WoooHOOooooo my SS package arrived today! The Terry the postal person on duty today was allll kinds of grins when I took my little yellow slip into the office to retrieve it. She said..."Here ya go! Enjoy!!" There is a HUGE sign on it that says Secret Santa Don't Open till December 13. Which ammused most of the town when I walked out of the Post Office LOL. To quote Ms. Shadow Dancer..."HOLY HANNA!!!" It is a tremendously HUGE package!! I'm not quite sure, but since I heard mumblings of "there better be milk and cookies when I get out"...I think my SS has sent me a little elf type person to keep my bobbins wound, and my fabric sorted! I'm hoping the little guy can hang on until the 13th without starving to death!

Mom wanted to know if it would be cheating if SHE peeked, with a promise not to tell me what's in there. I told ummmmmm NOOOOO!! LOL

The girls are beside themselves, cuz they can't open it either. I keep telling them...Mommy's!! NOooooo touchy!!

Thanks Secret Santa type person...I will be stark raving mad before the 13th I'm sure! :shock: :lol:

STAR 11-21-2009 05:53 PM

Truepeach- you may have an idea there :?:

sapdoggie 11-21-2009 06:19 PM

There is a jingle coming from my ss package :?: :?: :?: :?:

How ever am I going to ignore it- especially when it is so very quiet at night and it sounds like an alarm to wake me up?

I will have to wear my earmuffs to bed. :wink: :wink: :wink:

kwhite 11-21-2009 06:20 PM

I did that for many years. You get used to it.

That was naughty!!
And since it was VERY naughty, you need to take that package from your SS and send it to me! Umm...wait, nevermind. You can keep it. I KNOW what's in there and I REALLY DO NOT want the creepy crawlies that are gong to escape when you open the flaps.
So, instead...go wash your mouth out with soap! ;)

but SAPDoGGie...Peachy is being snarky! :roll:
Mousie is just trying to help her be herself, and not listen to FROGGIE.
:cry: I'm a good little mouse, I am.
I might be your secret santa and you will be pretty pleased with mousie when you see what she's making. That might not sound modest, but it's not that Mousie is so good, it's the luscious...oops... :shock:
I almost gave it away...I better go see what Peachy is up to now.

I have warm vanilla brown sugar bath and body works soap I bet it tastes good so take that!!!!

Terri do you really know??????? that is making me crazy if you know what I got. PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE tell me. send me a PM so know one knows you did it. shhhhhhhhhhhhh

trupeach 11-21-2009 07:04 PM

I think I figured it out for the people who got more then one package. :idea: Either your SS is totally fooling you and sent you more then one. I know someone who is sending their person several different packages. Or you got your SS and someone else sent you a package too. The fake SS had to ask you for your addy because there is no other way to get it.
