My DH came in the door after getting mail and said, "Santa has arrived" and handed me a small pkg. (fabric I ordered from e-bay) and then handed me this big, heavy, pkg. with a smile on his face.

I admit I did shake it and roll it over to be sure of no outward damage, but now it sits on my sewing table where it shall be until the 13th.

I have no problem letting sleeping packages lie until ready to open. Hmmm, maybe I should let DD hide it.

And, I received the most beautiful Thanksgiving card from SS.

SS apparently lives in Maine, not MT.

Thank you SS. You are so thoughtful.

Okay, Peachy, I understand. But perhaps if you called the local post office and explained the situation (shut-in, have pkg. weighed but cannot get it to them to be mailed, have plenty of postage stamps ... can they help??), someone there may be able to be of assistance.

Anyway, just got back on here and now have about 6 more pages to read, so if you've been able to get a solution to your problem, then hoo-ray for you! If not, well, I will pray that you get help somehow.

Holey moley is this the real SS or did Jim have a friend send me this package. I called him and got voicemail so I couldn't ask if it was him. I wonder if he will tell me the truth. I will tell him he can't lie then he'll have to go to confession (we're catholic, he was going to be a priest) But I am sooooo confused. I PM Terri and said I got it but now I am not so sure. woooo is me what do I do?????
This is happening bc you called Mousie a Scrooge!
It's not nice to fool with the mouse, Peachy :mrgreen:
I was making an observation and then agreed with you...think you need some hot tea, slippers and remote.
Just relax Peachy, take a load off.
Make your package think you don't care, like a boyfriend 8) :mrgreen:
Don't let it see you sweat...they smell fear you know.
Ask me how I know?
When I go in my sew-cave, now...my box says, "boo!" and snickers.
Now I ask you, is that nice?
It might not be the box, it might be that smiley face on the squishy.
Although I can't see in, it does look like somebody took a pencil and poked at all four corners of my box.
I sniffed both of them...nada. Although, it seems like the box may have had a slight whiff of fabric smell. ahhh! :wink:

I got mine the other day. I was sewing and my son checked the mail. He came in with a big box. Being I never get stuff like that I figured it was for one of the two daughters. He handed it to me with a big smile and said this ones for you mom. Oh............I want to open it now. OK............I'll try to be good and not peek. It's really hard though.

Mine is here!!!!

I thought it would be easy to ignore.... but it's not!!!! Oh my goodness!! lol

I don't know all the abbreviations for the states, so I only know it comes from America, that's it.

I didn't disguise my name when I sent mine, cause I figure the postage would give it away. *sigh* At least the insides will be a surprise! :-)
