To my SS:

Hi


Your gifts are not wrapped yet. Although I shouldn't, I may still buy a few more things. Some things still need to be "assembled". In other words, don't keep looking for the mailman, it's not on its way for a bit.

you're just being mean to me 'cuz I'm on the dark side, aren't you?


Mind you.....all of the same can be said to my SS.....bless her/him!


ETA,......if things don't settle down around here, my SS will also recieve (in a very short time) a box with air holes that doesn't wiggle, but BOUNCES, containing four 8-ish month old kittens! Hey, they're real smart.....they unplugged the Christmas tree about an hour ago, and they just succeeded in re plugging it up!

Don't think it will be. So, ________ no need to keep your eyes out at the mailbox for your pressie yet, but soon now. Just have to get some, chocolate/nuts/treats/etc as the final filler.
Hey, I wonder if that's for me!!!! I have a bunch of fuzzies!!!


Oh and to my SS. I have all my stuff ready but I'm a stinker when it comes to mailing my stuff and it will not arrive until right before Christmas!

There sure are a lot of meanies this year waiting to mail out their packages until the last minute. I think I will join them in mailing mine out late, too.


On a side note: Paula, that pic of Riley with his devil suit in the calendar is so precious, when I see this smiley
it reminds me of Riley

Yooohooo......SS! I just purchased _________ and ________ this weekend. I know ________ will really like it since a thread once explained that _________ were really special to them. Now that I think of it, if I add some _________ and a really big _______ to the parcel, I bet they will _________.

Add me to the list of last minute senders.
But I don't mind since I'm in good company.

There's no place like home
Everyone does realize that there are a few of us in cahoots about shipping the prezzies? We're mailing them to each other, then shipping them on, so they won't be postmarked from the original location.

Who cares where they are postmarked. Just send them!


Tomorrow would be a good day to mail packages.

Oh my, why yes I do have suggestions! Something along the lines of Minties, Pineapple lumps and Jaffas.

I don't mind waiting, especially as you live near a Lindt outlet!

My package is now at the post office waiting to be sent to a certain place somewhere in North America and the receipt says it should arrive within 4-10 days. I wonder if my SS is on the dark side.
Maybe I should have told the post office to send it slowly.....
