    The doorbell rang. When I opened the door I was handed a big beautiful wrapped package from my Secret Santa. Now we did say we were going to open within the week didn't we? OK, OK. Guess I have to go in the hole just so I won't be able to peek. Thank you Secret Santa I already love it. BrendaK

    I am so worried about my parcel. I got the SS the "one thing she really wanted", but then struggled with packaging it up. Its heading a long way, so I hope the powers that be are on mine and my SS side and it arrives all in one piece safely.

    I went to the Post Office today and there was a Key to go to another box and it was really a big box from my SS. Real big! Secret santa put my address as the return address and on the card also. I don't have a clue of where it came from. I cannot believe it!!! Not fare at all!! who ever it is , you got me good. Now for the wait. Do I have to wait? I am Old and my Knee hurts. Don't you feel bad for me?

    my knees hurt too--and i'm old--even though i told my mama i was never growing up. my SS must not have included catnip for my cat or something for the dogs as they arent bothering the package so cant blame any little mishap to the package on them. but then cat never has really liked catnip and dogs are getting old and lazy too. guess i shall have to sit i the naughty hole with my calendar and sharpie crossing off the days one be slow agonizing one til opening day

    Default the Good & the bad.

    the Good - my pkg arrived today. Yeah !
    The Bad - box was damaged or opened.. hole on side, not sure if anything is missing, and there is a lot of room in the box, can see a book. so we know there's a book..lol I love books. (GRIN). So, should i open the box to check or just wait till the 10th..
    Not that I'd know if anything is missing - but she will know when I post the photo.. what would you do open it or wait ?

    what? and the mailman didnt put a notice on it or anything? around if mail gets tor during the post office handling, it gets a sticker attached to it or a card gets put in box with it to let you know about the damage and possible need to assure contents are all thee or how to be compensated if broken, lost etc
