It was so exciting finally receiving my SS name!! I made the best piping hot vanilla latte, topped it with some fresh ground cinnamon, settled in with the computer and started reading. Getting to know my SS partner was so fun and heartwarming in a way that I didn’t really foresee.

What fun to get to know a brand new friend, and get to see all the lovely things that they have done and exchanged with others, and about their life.
This wee mouse has traveled the world this past year thru quiltingboard.
Admin deserves a great big Mousie-thank you, and his helpers :wink:

I never realized how much you could find out about a person just from the little comments they make on a post. 36 hours ago I knew NOTHING about this wonderful lady and now I know not just about her but her family too. Thanks SD for all your hard work and for making this a fun holiday for me.

Got mine on time as promised. What are we all gonna do when we don't have gross food to talk about, how naughty we are & whether we have rodent problems. Just wait for Santa. My person is going to get some nice suprises. She doesn't have any favorites. So I"m gonna fix her up real good. Mousey you be good today. I think you got tooooooooooooo much time on your hands. You play on the computer more than I do. Please send me some of that extra time you have. I need a 48 hour day. Ya'll have a nice Sunday. Deb

Exactly! There is something about reading their messages all together, that draws them so near, no matter where in the world they may be. I love it! :)

And mousie...I would love to find YOU when I open my SS box! You'd bring a lot of life and fun to this place...you don't mind dogs, right? :)

I surely do hope that whomever gets my gift likes it!

Odessa

Maybe Trupeach....LOL..... :lol: :shock: :lol: :D

If it is me that you get you better not mail it until the last minute it. I mean it I am not kidding or I will hunt you down. I am for warning you. You will be in BIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGG trouble. That goes for all of you SS if you get me have some sympathy and compassion wait until the last minute to send me mine.

Oh, peach, I would NEVER divulge my SS addressee ... it may be you, it may be mousie, it may have already been mailed ...

But know that if I got you, I would have an awfully difficult time holding your package to the end, just 'cuz I know it would itch at you to open it! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm little, I'm cute. I wear cute little dresses, and I'm always ready for a little 'needling', lol :wink:

Oh, Miss Mouse, you could jump out of my box. I would love a visit from a fellow quilter, even a wee small one like you!
