HI O'Karol....posted in the Holiday gift thread. 

I sent my pressie two weeks ago and starting to worry that it hasn't met its destination.  I have posted to that part of the world many times before and it has never taken two weeks.  I posted Cheree's for her last week.  xx

Sent/ not recieved.   I am waiting for Lucinda's package to magically appear on my doorstep!   :rofl; :rofl;


But, I did receive a "do not open until Christmas" from a wonderful IHD person who is not my Secret Santa.  It is sitting where I can see it and touch it.  LOVE surprises!!  (thank you Kitkatz)   :cuddle;
