hmmm, I did read that a few ppl forgot some stuff and had to send it later, and added a note so the person wouldn't open it.
Thank you, whoever you are! :mrgreen:

STAR 11-21-2009 08:11 PM

truepeach- that sounds sneaky sneaky :twisted: but how cool would that be to get 2 packages! Then Sandpat wouldn't be the only lucky one!

And I found something in my sewing room that I think my person would like so maybe I will have to send a second pkg!!! :wink:

Gwyn 11-21-2009 08:13 PM

Trupeachy: I suggest you quit while you can. You're going to get yourself in trouble. Too many cheerios for you today? Gwyn

...part of me wants to send you a package, to make you happy, ...and part of me, DOESN'T want to add to your torture...yes, I do,....no, I don't,...yes, I want to...no, I don't....
ahhh! it's catching!...Mousie is so sensitive :roll:
K, while your passing things on...got any diamonds or laptops! forget the diamonds...just send the laptop...oh, with faster connections :wink:

not to me it is bringing out the worst in me. I hate having a box talking and teasing and I can't open it and I don't know what's in it. This is not fun this is torture, and it makes me cranky.

uh-huh. Yesterday you said, Herman Debox could do anything and it would not bother you...I think he heard you, Peachy. He's giving it his all.
You must not let him get to you. I got a recipe earlier for FART cookies.
Think that might help you. Here's the site:

http://www.fatcatpatterns.com/special.htm

I'm sure if you go there, and read Sindy's note, you will understand perfectly 'why' they will be so helpful. My DH can't wait for me to make them. He wanted to have them for Thanksgiving... :roll:

kwhite 11-21-2009 09:07 PM

HAHA DH is going to bear camp tomorrow. I wnat to make him a ton of fart cookies!!!!! He will be the host of bear camp this year.

tlrnhi 11-22-2009 02:32 AM

Aren't those stories that Sindy tells awesome? lol

mumtoliam 11-22-2009 04:00 AM

It has been a scorching day here (43 degrees celsius or 109 degrees Farenheit) and some ants have come in the house and are crawling over my parcel. I am very tempted to open and just make sure they havent got into anything and just to check the heat hasnt affected anything LOL :mrgreen:

tlrnhi 11-22-2009 04:22 AM

Maybe have your Mum check it in private, just to make sure. I know I had a box of chocolate sitting on the counter still in original package, unopened. Noticed a couple ants on the sink. Yep...sure enough...they were in the chocolate!!

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:

LOL, Lisa! That makes it so much fun doesn't it, when everyone around, oohs and aahhs! :mrgreen: Bet your girls will be right there when mom finally digs in...I don't know why, but it just made me think of getting new shoes. What girly-girl doesn't like new shoes? silly mouse ramblings :wink:

I wrote and told Sindy thanks...I think this is a p-...um, hoot :wink: :!:

sandpat 11-22-2009 06:05 AM

Alright...just to clear something up....I DO have my SS package.....a REAL SS package....then I have NOT A SS package....it is an IMPOSTER! The reason I can't open it up is that it says not to open until Dec. 13...can't you tell I'm not a rule breaker????

Now, for those of you who think I am lucky...think again....obviously, this was sent by a mean person....someone who wanted to torture me further until opening day! So...with that in mind, what would it have in it??? Why, something MEAN of course! AND...has there been a mean person on this thread??? Yes....and we all know who that is!!...

Now that I read this again before I hit submit, I noticed that the IMPOStER package shall now be called a NOT A SS package.

tlrnhi 11-22-2009 06:10 AM

There's a SS Imposter? NO WAY!!! Who would do that?
Mean person? No...there are no mean people!
Patti....I'm thinking that maybe your SS is just a nice person and sent you 2 packages. It COULD happen!!!

sandpat 11-22-2009 06:17 AM

Hmmmm......so you are thinking this is a Part 1...Part 2 deal????



Nope, no way....its a NOT A SS package from a mean imposter! And THAT really goes on the naughty list!

tlrnhi 11-22-2009 06:20 AM

It very well could be a part 1 and a part 2. You never know!
There are some VERY sneaky people on the board!
Sneaky..not mean hehe

STAR 11-22-2009 08:22 AM

So fi the box that looks like mine is an imposter, then mine may have a mean something inside TOO!!! :shock: :shock: what to do :roll:

Miss Patti how can you be so sure that one is the real SS lots of people mailed their package late or haven't mailed it yet. MAYBE :idea: both boxes are imposters and you didn't get the real SS yet????? There is that possibility.

Did I miss something someplace I haven't seen any mean person on this thread who are you speaking of this way I can avoid them????? :roll: 8)

Gwyn 11-22-2009 11:31 AM

Who says no body would be a super secret santa and mail to people just for fun. I think that might be fun. I have several addresses in my book. Perhaps some of them could use an imposter Santa. Remember, I like being secret 'cause then I can be skinny. Who knows....

Haaaaaaaaay :shock: not fair how do you have several addresses??? I only have my SS. I did the fall box exchange and never thought to keep the addy. Stupid me. :cry: :cry: :cry: I want to be an imposter that sounds like fun. Gwyn whos addy do you have?????

Gwyn 11-22-2009 12:18 PM

Peachy: PM me and I'll share. Gwyn

sewhappy57 11-22-2009 12:28 PM

Hi Everyone! Thought I'd take this time to distract your little minds from our SS event and wish everyone a HAPPY THANKSGIVNG!
This is all so much fun I love to catch up every night to see whats going on!
Hey Terri remember Ants have to eat too! :D

chewboo 11-22-2009 12:35 PM

Anytime is ok for chat for me....I'm agreeable and I'll try to make it whatever time. You can bet the package will get opened on that day though...if I can find it..... :roll:

Tink says" Thank you". :wink: On the 13th, I won't be home until around 6-7pm. I have to break down my booth at the lasst Craft show for the year. So, I'll join in when I can get there...

joannl 11-22-2009 03:15 PM

Well... I don't think getting EXTRA SS packages is mean, sounds like a NICE thing for someone to do!

:lol: :lol: I AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it isn't means if someone took the time an effort to send an extra special SS to someone they weren't SS too. Even if the package does contain frogs or mice or lizards.

Hope you do well at the show...should be some Christmas shoppers there, right?! Hopefully Tink won't have opened your SS while you are gone!

Well...now that you put it like that....it could be that both are imposters, but I'm really thinking not...I believe the white box is the REAL SS box. The other box has a postmark that I can make out :wink: ....and a very light pencilled in street addy-complete with house #- written on the box...hmmmm....reverse look up works very well!!! :shock: :lol:

As for the mean person....look for someone impersonating a "Georgia" peach...but she is NOT from the south...therefore not very sweet. She has already been warned to wash out her mouth! Have you not heard that it is possible to be BANNED from SS???? :shock:

Iluv2quilt 11-22-2009 04:56 PM

Still waiting for my SS box. Truly I was a good girl this year, yes I was. Is Santa still delivering packages?

We don't use are real names here so just because you did a search how do you know that is really where it came from, and who the person really is. OHHHHH that Santa is a clever one. I dont' think anyone would be dumb enough to put their real addy on the box.

How can a person get banned from SS if they have their pressie what do they have to send it back to SS???? and then who would they send it back to since the return addy is their own? I think you are fibbing Miss Patti and that should go on you naughty list. (raspberries)

And who is to say that I the Peach am not from the south???? do you know that for a fact???? I think not so do not assume anything.

wvdek 11-22-2009 05:29 PM

Teri,

Could you please pm me Shadow's address? You wanted me to remind you last week and I forgot. I really want to send her cards and well wishes.

Have you heard from SewCin whether she received her pkg. or not yest.?

Thanks, I know ou are a busy gal right now.

Mousie 11-22-2009 05:58 PM

jingle bells, shotgun shells.
Santa's on his way....just doing a little mousie humming...forgot words :mrgreen:
well, ss swappers, how are you all tonight? I had to go celebrate with a beautiful young lady that just turned six. I got to see all four of my grandbabies at one time!
It was a beautiful day and there was a brand new swingset/slide/fort for them to play on and cousins, and a tiny lizard/gecko...he was quite popular, and since there was a leftover board from swingset being put together, they were taking turns making him walk the plank...but they didn't let him fall off.
My sweetie pie was just watching all that funny business. She is tenderhearted like Nana.
So, are you all being good with your packages? those that have them...some ssanta's are sparing their recipients from suffering too too much.
Peachy, did you see the pic I posted? I got a #1 and a #2 ...oh, but I told you about "Squishy Santa" and "Foxyboxy"...I haven't talked to them this evening, since I got home. They are watching tv with DH right now...eyeballs like the money on the geico commercials.
Geesh, the gecko is cute, then they go and put that annoying monopoly money with eyes on there.
Makes fun of ppl for not saving money...pfft! on that!
I save...and then I spend on fabrics, like all good quilters :wink:
la la la,
la la la,
la la la la la.... :mrgreen:

Ohhh yep, the girls will be right there to see what's in there before I can LOL.
By the way...Jasmine and I are certain we saw the Little Elf guy running from the cookie jar back to the box last night. I think he is responsible for a few missing brownies from a plate set aside for Thanksgiving. I'm sure no one else here would EVER snitch brownies. hehehe

trupeach 11-22-2009 08:21 PM

I have just about had it with Herman DeBox he was humming jingle bell rock and dancing around the living room. I put him in a corner with books on top so he can't move now but he is still teasing me and humming away. GRRRRRRRRRR 20 days to go.

Oh and this is for everyone to know I am SS to............. **+&%$_#@ hope you like your pressie. hehehe
