IHatePlastic,
You're right, I got another package in the mail about the same day. Since my kids opened them before I was home from work I didn't know. That one had the fifi hook along with some beaks and auks.
There are some really amazing gifts out there.
Thanks again Strider for putting on the ST SSGE.

It isn't over yet. I recently received a treemendus gift from a certain birthday gurl. Will post up photos this weekend; however, I refuse to wear a tee shirt as shorts and do a hand stand. Trust me, this is a good thing. You would not want to see it and I'd probably hurt myself...

hey there say, lolli... wow, the other envelope did not come... so, if i get a chance tomorrow, i just got some rent and food money--i will go and see if i can find the adapter that you and jan spoke of...

i would like to light it for new years.... :)

there must have been a huge last minute backup that this poor enveolope got stuck in... :)

i am so very happy though, so please don't feel bad as to the mail's slow job... :)

look forward to seeing more pics here too...

:)

One more thanks to Strider for putting this together, my SS for the gift, and everyone involved for being so generous. First year I got involved, and definitely not the last. :-)

hey there say, thanks crock...

say, i couldn't get to the store to look for one, as the baby came early for me to babysit tonight...

i did ask the ex son in law, who had left the girls here, just before the baby came over, if HE could get me one, as he was at a 'multi' type store (like walmart, etc)...

well, that store DID have it, but it was in a pack that was KIT of adapters, so it was 29 bucks, :(


the guy helping him look, had been overseas in the army lots, and he said that they usually sell (at hardware stores) for about 5 bucks...

so now... most likely i will just wait for the envelope to come. :)
thanks so very much--it's got to come anytime now...
hope to have put it on for new years, but none of the kids spent the night, but the baby, so they are not missing out on the fun...

we WILL get a new year opportunity, YET, before lolli's advent
system of the new year weeks, is over, :))

I feel like Secret Scrooge not Secret Santa as my recipient has not received her gift yet. It is still on back order. I had hoped it would arrive just before Christmas. Maybe it will be delivered in time for Women's Christmas or Little Christmas on January 6.
I have not opened my own gift yet and will not until I send my belated gift.

I hope everyone had a great Christmahanukwanzaafestivus.

My sentiments exactly! Plus he was my "giftee". It was my first time also and will definitely continue. The thread was so fun....my guess is, Strider, that you may want to employ some Elves next year...I just have the feeling it's going to grow....exponentially!

Happy New Year

Howdy folks, just wanted to check in one last time and make sure everybody received their gift and everything is kosher. As of today I will NO LONGER be checking the supertoposanta email address so if you have any problems message me directly please.

Also, in a few weeks, provided no one has had any problems, I will be deleting all email messages and deleting the Santa-Match document I created with your names and addresses. Essentially I will be deleting all personal information that was sent to me. So make sure you contact me soon if you have had any problems.

Thanks again everyone for participating this year. It was the biggest year yet and I can't wait for next year!

Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii.

hey there lolli... say, glad you posted this...

i been a bit shy to post yet... i been faithfully waiting for the post to bring that envelope... (i was hoping to share good news, as you paid for this to be here on time) oh my... :(

please don't worry on my account, i am fine...
yet, since you paid, you should let them know...

only once, did i ever (that i know of ) not get something... (a few years back, at old address, L had tried to send something that never got here, but then, we had a variety of mailman sub for our gal, so maybe something went screwy in confusion? not sure)...


welllll, my ex son in law DID find an adapter, but it was in a full pack with assesories and thus costed too much...
i took a fast look last night at a store--being that i figured by now, it must not be comiing... but:
did not see anything...

if i get out tomorrow, or later tonight, as i have to mail something to my family, i will try again and see if i can get the adapter...


your lovelyyyyyyyyyyyyyy gift though, STILL gracing my table... i am keeping up my cards and tree, lights for the winter, as it is kind of dark in here with the plastic on the windows (needed here, as the windows are old) (but not sealed all the way, for some air saftey, etc)... so:

my house can still sparkle with cheer, until i can open up the windows again, :)) YOUR LIGHT will STILL lovely here, when i can get i going,
so please know that... >:D< i love it!



well.... got to go now... i also my have to add the adapter to my feb budget, as i wanted to use my extra bit here to surprise my dad with this mail... but--i AM getting to that goal...


wow, can you imagine how very extra speical it will be THEN!
:)


YOU DID WELL lolli, you really did... :)
