A couple of Secret Santa parcels have already arrived!
Please report here when you receive your gift. Remember, it is up to you if you open your parcel ahead of the day, but please keep the contents a secret. I'll start a thread for pictures of the presents when the time comes.

76409There are 7 gifts not yet reported as having been received. I do know that one of them has gone astray in the postal system, but I suspect that some of the 7 have arrived safely but not been posted as received. Two more days for them to arrive and three more sleeps to open them. (Did you all hear that?!)

Sorry! My gift arrived! It is under our xmas tree and I will open it on Sunday! Thank you SS whoever you are!
14071741781318443I received my gift today. Thank you Secret Santa. I am going to try to wait until Christmas to open it.
6257Santa's helper, a man wearing a yellow jacket, riding a red motor scooter, (looking suspiciously like an Australia Post delivery man) dropped my gift on our front veranda late yesterday.
I have resisted the temptation to open it, only going so far as removing it from the yellow express post satchel. It is now sitting under our tree where our cat Tao is showing a very great interest in the pretty bow on top. :-)
Thank you my Cute Secret Santa, I know I will love it no matter what it is because I know it was made with much love and aforethought. :-)

You should have another parcel tomorrow, and you may open the longer box if you want to, it's sort of a LATE Birthday gift, combined with Christmas. :-)))

22354Well this Secret Santa's helper onforwarded an SS gift last Thursday, for another Cutie Sister......... because we are just so very devious. :-)
I still haven't finished making mine, I was just a little slow deciding what to make, but one more day should see it done and ready for posting before the weekend.
I'm so looking forward to seeing all the wonderful, creative gifts that our Cute SS's come up with.
Hugs n blessings to all.

I bought a Smithsonian toy that was missing pieces for my grandson. I sent them an e-mail asking to purchase the missing pieces, got a response that they would send me the pieces free. The surprise was I received a new toy, not just the missing pieces PLUS a free toy for my troubles.
22354I had mine all finished but a friend saw it and fell in love with it. Just about finished the replacement.

Congrats Monika, and what a huge move! Do you have any family "way out west where the rain ☔️ don't fall". Are you on a property, or hobby farm? Love ❤️ Chris

Forbes, WOW!!! What a change! Well I sure do wish you both a wonderful, healthy and happy life in your new country cottage.
Did you buy a property or a house in town?
I much prefer the country to city living but worry about medical services if we moved any further away and there would have to be a bowling alley. LOL!!
Huge hugs, Meg
