Hey, Erika! Glad the package made it to you.

fyi, in case I forgot to mention it in the package, that t-shirt is not dryer-safe.

I'm starting to wonder if my package made it. My person posted here about being away until after Christmas, but I'm not sure how long after.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

I'm gathering water and plastic grass for the camels to arrive on the Epiphany. Does anyone else here celebrate Three Kings Day?

I haven't gotten mine but I'm preeety sure I know who and where it's coming from. I'm not moving any time soon and it truly is the thought that counts so I'm not worried about it. maybe it will be waiting for me when I get home tonight.

@slackmistress' mom celebrates Russian Orthodox Christmas so she's all about the epiphany or at least using hat as an excuse to have a party.

I am sorry to my person- but by golly through rain or sleet or snow the package will make it. Eventually. I am just sorry that the world is crazy and the gift is taking a slow journey. I hope it will be worth your wait!

Hmm... If anyone reading has wondered why I haven't said thanks or anything yet - I just got back to my apartment this weekend and unfortunately forgot my mail key at my folks' place.  A replacement is on the way, and I will hopefully get my thanks out ASAP.

I'm totally going to erase this message when I get my key back so there's no record of me being so dumb.

Just so everyone knows, there are a few circuits that haven't been completed due to weather, borders, illnesses, errant & missing deliveries, and so forth ... I'm helping convey msgs back and forth between Santas and Santees.

Every one of you who has the particular issue has been turning yourself inside out to make sure your fellow FOT doesn't feel neglected, and every one of you who is still waiting has been really swell about understanding ...

So, um, yeah. We should probably hook that up to a turbine. I thought you all should know.

OMG!

I got an AWESOME gift in the mails today - Kiemzi made me a neck warmer using hand spun yarn! It is so cool!

I will try and get a pic of it uploaded so y'alls can see, its really nice. I am superduper obsessed with neck warmers and infinity scarves right now, so this is like extra-great for that reason.

Thank you so much Mamacita!

Holy Moley - I picked it up last night and THANK YOU SO MUCH masterofsparks!  What a great gift - lots of books, which I love and cannot wait to dig into and tons of other great things beyond!

Thank you and Merry Christmas!
