The nice man at the post office assured me that the priority box should arrive at the destination Monday or Tuesday. Whee!
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2005? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

My person should get his/her gift any time now, or so I hope, since packages I sent out at the same time have started reaching their destinations.
Oh, I'm so relieved that I'm not the only one who is still mailing packages. Mine should absolutely be in the mail by Monday, but if Snooty Post Office Lady is right, it may not make it in time. (Although last year, mine made it very far away in less time than I thought it would take.)
Acc'ing to the post office website - the 21st is still good for priority mail.

Whew. I wonder if that counts for Alaska.
I'm counting on the goodwill of the post orifice in being timely since I have yet to even shop for my giftee. I think I will have to do that tomorrow. Along with wrapping other gifts, finishing up two blankets, finishing my dad's scrapbook, and picking up two last minute Christmas presents. Ugh.
did much bakeing today - that feels like christmas.
finished wrapping my folks presents - and happily, they fit in a box that mom sent.
I just have to finish gathering my S.S. present. Which feels less like an obligation, because I chose it and if I don't want to do it again I don't have to it. Somehow it feels like more fun.
I have put together my seekrit santa package and handed it off to DH to put in the mail for me today. Let's see if that actually happens.
Oh, heck. I just realized I didn't put the card in that revealed who I am...blarg. There is something in there that does have my name, but dag nabbit.
Seekrit santee recipient - I promise to reveal myself here if you don't figure it out from the pitiful clue that is in the package. I'm a DORK.
Are we supposed to reveal who we are as Secret Santas? I purposefully obscured mailing clues on the package I sent to make guessing my identity harder...
It varies. Some people reveal, others obscure, and some (rather like Cinderella in Into the Woods ) do neither, mailing from their local post office, but not signing their name.
