    Woohoo, got my SS package in the mail today. What a nice surprise. It doesn't jingle or jangle, but it's a fully loaded box and gonna drive me nuts not being able to open it! I've already hidden it in a drawer so that I don't have to look at it every day and wonder. I'm looking forward to getting together with everyone to open our boxes, should be loads of fun!

    I will be sending my SS her package next week. Just got a couple more items to put in the box and it's good to go. It's been loads of fun putting together a nice package for her. I hope she likes everything! Anyways, have a great weekend everyone!

    Well, I'm back home for a couple of days, then going to be out of town for 2 weeks again...just got caught up on all the fun here...I finished up the last of the shopping for my ss today, tomorrow I hope to finish the making the last 2 things (it's for the furbabies ), then get everything wrapped & package will be mailed by deadline. It's so much fun getting it all together...hope she likes it all. I probably won't get back till Thanksgiving...hope everyone has a good one!

    Last hint for my person since tuesday morning your package will be on its way to you.

    Your hint....in the past you have joined the 1.5 inch postage stamp swap.

    More power to him! I usually put my tree up the week after Thanksgiving -- but may just do it the week before, now that I've looked at the calendar. It is going to be a short season this year; in fact, Thanksgiving is as late as it can possibly be. And he's right -- without that extra cushion of November before we enter December, it will be a whirlwind as soon as Thanksgiving is over. On the bright side -- it won't seem like we have as long to wait to open our SS packages!

    Default something for my santa secret pal

    I hope this picture uploads. My first attempt.

    My secret santa person is getting this in their package. Hundreds of 1.5 inch postage stamp squares. I hope she likes them. Trust me it was ALOT of cutting and this is the reason that my package is so late.

    Durn Airwick! That's a lot of cutting! I know it's not coming to me, I've never done anything with 1 1/2" pieces before. Oh who is my Santa? The hints don't fit! Well, there are a few, but not enough to identify that it's me though!

    Had a great time at the festival yesterday & picked up just one more item for my Santaee. I know they'll love it!

    Hint for today: You love a good mystery!
