The box of Minnesotan munchies has been posted. Hopefully it’ll be received by the giftee before Xmas.
Box is packed and will be mailed out tomorrow. Its good that my giftee has cats, I totally know how to shop for cats!
My gifts are on their way! The city/state names are alliterative. Hope it gets there in time, the line was long at the post office.
My gifts are on the way. The post office lady said they would arrive in 2 days. I’m hoping this means they will be there before Christmas.
I ordered two gifts to be sent. If they don’t arrive together, know that another gift is on the way.
It’s been a rough last few days. Package is almost ready to go out. Should be headed east (but since I’m in CA, not much of a hint) tomorrow.
I’m actually quite proud of myself, I shopped, wrapped and sent the package today! I’m always super last minute with these things. I guess running it put me under more pressure to perform!
Ooh, thanks again, everyone who is participating in this (and organizing.) Just reading this is cheering me up. Lots of people having fun trying to make other people happy.
I’m hoping to get mine out by Friday, wish me luck!
Me too! The 12 Days of Christmas and all…
I’ve purchased and received all gifts, I’ll wrap and package tomorrow, and get to the post office on Friday. They don’t have far to go, and fingers crossed they arrive by Christmas, but if they do not, they’ll just be something to look forward to after Christmas.
i packaged and labeled. hopefully heidi and the goats will allow it to arrive next week.
Ok my gift is packed and ready for the post office tomorrow. I totally forgot to put in the card saying who it’s from but I’ll reveal myself it once it’s opened
I didn’t put a card in either. I actually wrote a thoughtful message and all, but something happened because of boxes and cats and I found the card under the loveseat after the box was mailed. I also said many bad words about the missing card.
To my giftee, get the piece of agate wet and then hold it up to the sun. The soft, warm colors will make your eyes happy.
Getting my shit together … and also my giftee’s things together. They will go out (probably U.S.P.S. hopefully that’s OK) this afternoon.
Me too. I’ll heave myself off the couch any minute…
I have received a mystery package! I haven’t yet opened it - why not draw out the fun? - but I assume it’s from my SDMB Santa. So they may rest assured their box came safely.
My box went out before the post office closed this afternoon, so it’s now in the hands of God, or your local postmaster.
Never mind.
Well, I was gonna hold out but … oh, what the hell. I decided to open it, and just pick out a couple of things.
- PURPLE slippers! They’re super soft and comfy, and have those little non-skid dots on the soles so yours truly doesn’t go sliding and falling.
They’re kinda shiny, too, so I get to feel glamorous as I shuffle about.
- Dark chocolate (in purple packaging, naturally) from oooh! Godiva.
“A crunchy pearl of caramelized cacao nibs surrounded by a smooth dark chocolate filling inside a crisp wafer coated in dark chocolate with milk chocolate pieces.”
Well. My goodness.
More awaits within, but that’s enough for one evening. I like knowing there’s more in store for me.
purplehorseshoe, it’s from me. I thought I put a card in there.
And BTW, I have a package of six high quality chocolate bars, but I don’t know who it’s from. I also have a notice from the post office to pick up a package. I’ve already sample an 85% dark chocolate bar.
