Not Me! My tree looks so pretty with all of the packages under it!
I did tell the kids that they could open their's early, but so far the only package that was attacked was my dark chocolates, which I had to take away from Cosmo!
The earliest I will open any of my presents will be Christmas Eve!
First, I must try and see what members live in North Carolina! Time to do some reverse snooping!

It's still early. Plenty of time to succumb to the Dark Forces...

I vaguely remember someone from that area, but I can't think of who it is at the moment.

Let me know what works!
I have been trying to find a link that talks about where members are from, ie England, Cal., Australia, Mass., etc. My SS is from North Carolina and I can't find anything out!

When receiving SS gifts and posting, can the user name be included? Not all of us can associate a name with the user name. Some of us are just getting old!
Mine was Ali012281

I think my SS gift came. It's the only thing I can think of that the package could have been, but it's been sent back. I was gone for two weeks, and we never got any sort of notification until today when I got a "final notice your package will be shipped back on Dec 1."

I called the post office. They said it's been shipped back already.

Mind you, I checked the mail when I got home and there was no notices in it. The mailbox was empty this morning before mail delivery and I only got the notice today.

I'm so sorry, SS, if it was you!


Just wait till I see that man.

Yes, we want DETAILS! Do you know who your SS is yet?

That's awful!! I would be fuming! Especially since you said you didn't see any of the other notices. I would have the post office pay for it to be shipped back to you.

Sorry I needed to do a little detective work to find out who my secret Santa was.
I received a beautiful gift basket of lavander bath products. Lavander being my most favorite of all.
Despite it being re-routed from New Jersey I manage to track down the sender to Milwakee Wi via reversed phone look up...from that I got a name, age and then it was just a matter of snooping throw some threads.
I am doing a personal thank you first to make sure I have the right person and will let you know after I get a reply....
