I received a nice fat squishy package from Oregon yesterday! It's sitting on the fireplace mantle waiting for my tree to be put up so I can put it under the tree until the 7th!!

According to my tracking, the ss package I posted to xxxxx on the 14th November, finally left Australia at 7am this morning, the 20th. If the rest of its journey takes this long, xxxxx may get it in time for Christmas 2020.

m-fay... i had no idea a package mailing could take that long!!! As much as i have been obsessing about my mailing, i would say that i now feel pretty fortunate to be working with the USPS!

AprilM 11-19-2019 07:10 PM

Just to clarify... not bashing the USPS - just commenting on my obsessing about the journey of my SS’s package and wringing my hands day and night until the tracking finally confirmed delivery!

I received a package from Iowa today, can't wait to see what's inside.

Darcyshannon 11-19-2019 11:26 PM

Hmmm? No mention if it is a secret santa
 
Hi. Ok. I got two packages and one is probably the wall hanging but nothing written on either and other is Secret Santa with delayed opening on a set day. So, did the person who sent me a wall hanging send it from Florida or California? Hope to hear soon so I can open the right package and save the secret santa.
Please let me know since it wasn’t marked.

Darcyshannon 11-19-2019 11:29 PM

Please let me know if you sent from either Winterhaven Fl or San Marcos, CA. I am expecting two packages and neither marked on the outside. Secret Santa or Wall hanging so i don’t know which one i can open.

I am so bumb that I did not sign up! Maybe Next year will roll around fast. You girls are having a lot of fun and I feel left out. It is my own fault. I was so busy with life I thought I would not have time. Miss all of you!

Darcyshannon 11-20-2019 08:33 PM

Please help!!! My box was not marked and I received two packages on same day and want to wait on Secret santa. Whoever sent to me please let me know so I can open the other one. Thanx

Darcyshannon 11-20-2019 11:35 PM

The hostess thankfully was able to give me the information. I have looked over both received packages and neither were marked Secret Santa. At least now I can save the right package.

Queenbarbiej 11-21-2019 04:06 AM

I received my Secret Santa present from the north. I've must have been really good because it is a nice size box. I can't wait to open it. Its hiding in my sewing room.

Bullock2us 11-21-2019 04:56 AM

I received my very prettily wrapped gift-Thanks!

Lstew2212 11-22-2019 03:35 AM

According to tracking, my new special friend received her package. Now to sit and wait. Longest wait ever.

TheMerkleFamily 11-22-2019 05:09 AM

Counting down - 15 more days!

ljs317 11-22-2019 03:54 PM

It’s here! It’s here!!! I’m so excited!!! Hip hip hooray it’s here! Thank you secret Santa thank you!!!!!

djmat 11-22-2019 06:42 PM

dj

AprilM 11-22-2019 07:36 PM

Just makes me smile... that we all know how to be wide-eyed little kids again! Thank you for hosting such a sweet and wonderful reminder of the days when we all waited for Santa! 😊

Rumbols 11-24-2019 09:30 AM

Counting down - 13 more days!

AprilM 11-24-2019 09:56 AM

If memory serves me correctly from the long ago Mom days... that would be “13 more sleeps!” 😊

ljs317 11-24-2019 02:07 PM

Have you seen the amazon commercial where the boxes sing? I think my USPS box has taken a page out of their book because my secret Santa box is singing and talking and taunting me every time I see it. “You can open me no one will know right?” Wrong I will be strong and prevail I will not open that box until the 7 th of December! I will I will!

TheMerkleFamily 11-24-2019 03:18 PM

**shake shake**

**squish squish**

Just checking to make sure everything is alright in there....

:D

QuiltingLawyer 11-25-2019 10:59 AM

Santa's elves delivered a package to me today!!!! Good thing I'm leaving to go to Ohio for Thanksgiving tomorrow otherwise I don't know how I would be able to wait!

Rumbols 11-25-2019 11:12 AM

Aprilm, that reminds me of the Santa days (well over 27 years ago). All of you ladies are so funny but id does make you feel young again. ljs317, I hear the same thing from my box. Resist we must. Only 12 more sleeps to go.

PamelaOry 11-25-2019 11:20 AM

You guys are so cute.

I sure hope my box arrived safely.

hav4boys 11-25-2019 01:56 PM

My box is all pretty and smiles at me every time I walk by. It is so enticing.

RJLinkletter 11-25-2019 10:52 PM

I sent mine 2 weeks ago and it should have only taken a few days to get there. No news from the recipient so I hope it has made it there ok!

I think mine is at the post office as they popped a card through so hubby will be sent there today or tw while I’m at work!

Judylee2 11-26-2019 04:05 AM

I am so excited!!!! Bouncy bouncy bouncy! I am in Texas and will be heading back to Florida on the 1St of December. I will be home for the opening day festivities!

Battle Axe 11-26-2019 04:11 AM

My package has been laying on the dinning room table for so long that I am afraid it has spoiled. I don't see any creepy crawlie things coming out yet, but ....any minute. If the rest of you can be good, then I have to be good also.

Do we all have our package? How many of us are there oh great moderator hostess??

TheMerkleFamily 11-26-2019 05:18 AM

I'm pretty sure I just heard a lonely whimper come from my SS box on the other side of my sewing studio! Poor little thing, only 11 more sleeps and you can come out and play :D

djmat 11-26-2019 05:27 AM

Oh, fooey, just found the card I was supposed to put in the box so my santee would know it was from me. Guess I'll wait until opening day to announce it, otherwise they'll realize who their santa is. I pray for forgiveness!!! It was down in the box of ornament making items for a different swap.
hugs,
dj

tlrnhi 11-26-2019 10:51 AM

You can always still send it as a card.
Just put Secret Santa on the envelope

Queenbarbiej 11-26-2019 06:05 PM

Opening day is December 7th.

RJLinkletter 11-27-2019 12:06 PM

What I thought was going to be my SS package was my ornament swap so still waiting (im)patiently haha

Armylady2012 11-28-2019 07:32 AM

Ladies so it has taken me so long to post but have been dealing with Medical Issues, I did receive my Secret Santa Package, actually I got 2. I am guessing she had to wait for something to come in the mail, I think I know who my Secret Santa is, the address looks familiar since I host the Mug Rug swap but I am being a good girl and now looking to see if I have her address.

Armylady2012 11-28-2019 08:27 AM

Well it seems like my Secret Santa received her package, so this is what you have to do, the gifts are numberd so please open them in order, I think I did it right, so you will be took through the process of creating a beautiful item. Have fun with it all.

m-fay 11-28-2019 08:40 PM

I received my SS package today in a beautiful Christmas box all the way from Canada. No clues as to whom she could be, except for the date of postage. I wonder if I've guessed right. Anyway, you'll know who you are and its arrived safe & sound and a big thank you. Its taken up residence now under the Christmas tree.

tlrnhi 11-28-2019 10:28 PM

Just an FYI....I won't be around on the 7th to "watch" ya'll open packages.
It's my birthday that day and hubby's work is having their Christmas party.
I have my pretty dress and tiara for it, so I'll be celebrating.
