Goodbye and Good Riddance 2013: That Was the Year That Was
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Out you go, 2013!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Calli! You have excellent timing!
After my morning's adventures I came home to find a box tucked next to my door. I now have a very cozy hoodie pillow case, a very cool spoke light for my bike, and a beautifully delicate glass orb containing dandelion seeds. Oh, and the card is gorgeous! Thank you, Calli!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Juliana is my Secret Santa! I got cookies! There's more stuff coming! Thank you!!
I am!! And there is, but there's a hold-up with one of the non-perishable things and cookies should be in mouths ASAP. Yes.

Another package from my Secret Santa! And this one was shipped from the opposite end of the country as the first one! Clearly we have a cunning master-mind at work.
And I got a beautiful blue stocking cap (sadly I won't be wearing it to Kilimanjaro this year, we've put off that trip), and a signed copy of a book by Amber Benson!

Because books.
My Secret Santa gift came! I got a lovely 2014 calendar of vintage mid-century ads, and a beautiful pair of silver earrings -- I think they're a Celtic tree? They're gorgeous! Thank you, lisah!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Oh, good! I'm glad it got there ok. I was worried about weather delays. I guess it'll be a while before the bike doohickey will be usefull, but the hoody pillowcase seems like a good thing for December.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I got more Secret Santa stuff! More books, yay! Also a plush Dalek. I was initially confused because there was a return address in Brooklyn, but then one that I'm quite familiar with in Michigan, and, frankly, I was pretty sure that Aimee wasn't up for that level of subterfuge, but then I opened the "open last" card, and Ms Belle was my Secret Santa! Thank you so much. I am looking forward to lots of reading to my Dalek.

hoodie Pillow? why did I not know of such things. Matt needs one and yet I only know about it now.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
you are welcome. The yarn should be sock yarn. I had it sent direct though, so I never saw it.

Yay! Glad it arrived and that you like, Amy. I think those are Trees of Life but I realize that I don't know what the origin of that image/concept is.
