I have a box from my Santa! I am going to exercise restraint and wait to open it until Christmas. I wanted Santa to know that the post office did their thing in a timely fashion.
My Santee is unfortunately going to have to have patience. I hate to pull the 'had to have surgery' card, but I am going to anyway because some of my thoughts were local pick up type stuff and not on line type stuff and I have been sitting on my butt and not getting out and about. But I will! I got this! Seriously, I am looking forward to putting together the package and hope that my santee will consider it an extension of the holiday season.
eta: I did open and read the card and send thanks in advance to Santa Emily. I shared a picture of the address label on the box on FB because I chuckled, as I imagine my mail carrier did.
Thank you for the snowflake, Suzi!
Oh yes! Mine is hanging from the antlers of a silver reindeer statue. Lovely. Thanks you!
My Secret Santa gifts will probably arrive in spurts, and I don't think they'll arrive before the 25th.
But they are on their way!
ETA: Suzi, thank you for the snowflake! XOXO
Okay! I opened my gift a few days ago but haven't had a chance to thank my elf properly. And by my superior powers of deduction, since she included no card, I guess that my elf is SUZI. I got some chocolate, tea, and candies; a super clever gift box made from a plastic bottle; an adorable sloth tea steeper, which will be great for reminding me to take time to be slothy, and a tiara! I wore the tiara to hang with my bellydancer friends, and they all loved it. Thank you, Suzi!
(okay if it's not Suzi I will feel real dumb, but I compared handwriting and all)
My package is on its way, but will probably get there the 26th.
I just got LDBed. It was in the store where we were getting UP style pasties though, so totally worth it.

Likewise! I tried so hard to get it in the mail on Monday and it just couldn't happen so we stopped on the way to the airport Tuesday morning. It's slightly possible that I may have mixed up the package meant for my Santee and for my 1-year old cousin so...let me know if you get tiny adorable socks and bath toys!
Hee! I'm loving the idea of that mixup.
I was LDB'd twice yesterday. I figure making it to Dec 23 is pretty good and at least it was Bowie/Crosby both times.
Your powers of deduction are correct, smonster. There should be a separate package of a couple other small goodies coming your way, but I'm not sure when.
I tried to stick with Colorado or up cycled stuff... wish I could have delivered them personally. One day I'll get to New Orleans.
