I can't be entirely sure, but I think the mail carrier tried to deliver my Secret Santa fossil package today because there was a little note waiting for me in the mailbox!!!  Apparently I can pick it up tomorrow afternoon - I'll give another update then...:fingerscrossed:

All this stuff about naughty and nice is just a myth (although snolly did get sticks and pine cones in his stocking one year). The proof - snolly received a package this PM that he believes is from a Secret Santa. So, if snolly can get a gift, even the ultra-naughty are eligible! That is, unless the shipping box contains sticks and pine cones?!?!?

I get coal in my stocking every year. My wife found a nice lump of coal one year and put it in as a joke. I liked it more than the rest of the contents, so in it goes every year.

The burning question on each Forum denizen's mind - "Did snolly possess the strength of character, the abject maturity, the worldly sophistication, to avoid opening his Secret Santa gift before Christmas?" 

 

Hmmmm...well...strong packing box with a securely taped opening...the snollywife not present to administer baleful glare...impulse control of a toddler...suffice to say...

I knew you were one of us.

Yes. 

Anyway, I think it's more rebellious and unusual to actually be on the Good List. 

The naughty list seems rather de rigueur and mundane.;)

Oh, for the record... I didn't open my present early and I have not been prepping it for the last week so don't expect to see awesome pictures of a stellar specimen on Christmas day. :ninja:

I'm pretty sure Adam has visited the naughty side a time or two.  That's why he was banished to a foreign land of sand, scorpions and camel cheese. :P

Nope.

It was all wifey's fault. :D

I’ve been trying to unpack the house. 

That must have been a really big box! ;)

Thank you for the update!

A lot of little boxes taped together to give the illusion of a giant box, actually.

Just a couple of late arrivals due to weather and customs delays.

I should imagine all should be at their destinations by first of next week. :fingerscrossed:

( crossing my toes here too! )

 

This is why the sooner these packages get sent the better. ;)

What news on the Santa front?  Was that package slip you got yesterday the one we are waiting for? 

 

Yes it was!!! :megdance:

...and then there were two.

 

PaleoNoel and Misha are the only ones left without their gift from a Secret St. Nick.

Let's all hope they make it sooner than later!  :popcorn:

Alrighty, now we are down to 

PaleoNoel- just waiting to pick up from the P.O.

Misha- hopefully should have by middle of next week.

And MSirmon- ideally by the end of the week. :fingerscrossed:

 

This is why we need to stick to deadlines!!
