Oh, yay - I was getting worried that it wouldn't arrive (we had mail-disruptive weather just before Christmas). So glad that you liked it all! I'm really glad some of the jewellery's in your colours, too! No idea if the necklace is reproduction or real, but I saw it in a second-hand store and thought of you.
I live in a town where Guide Dogs for the Blind are trained, and just love stories about how animals and people develop loving and helping bonds with each other.
The author is my father! He's a talented guy. His dog Matt is also very talented.

How cool is that?!
What is the title of the book, may I ask? I'd love to look it up.
It's called 'If It Wasn't for That Dog'. My father's pen-name is Michael Forester.

No other packages received? I'm beginning to fret about mine getting where it's supposed to be.
Me too, especially since UPS says it was delivered this afternoon--left by the front door.
doom doom doom...
I'm thinking mine was lost by the post in a drift a block from the recipient's home, and won't be uncovered until April.
I am contacting people today to check up again.
I was part of the slacker exchange. I was just hoping the post office wouldn't add this much to my slackage.
I have my package from Java Cat! I have many samples of Peet's Coffee, plus a bunch of other cool and interesting stuff. So far, I have had "Major Dickinson's" coffee AIFG. I'm trying to figure out how to compare them.
I suspect my delivery time was caused by the World's Worst Mailman, who seems to have spread out the mail that was saved when I was out of town.
I just received an abolutely beautiful handmade pottery jug and sugar dish from Calli. Thank you so much! It's a little bit of Christmas joy in the gloom of January!
The cats are equally overjoyed by the gift of foam packing peanuts.
The original post office mark says Dec 9th, and I got my package notification yesterday, so it may have had some adventures along the way. They claim they tried to deliver it then, but I seem to remember it being awfully snowy around then...
