Sent my Exchange Gift Today!

18 years ago

I don't want to give anything away, BUT it was an awkwardly large package, with "Extremely Fragile" and "Handle with Care" stickers all over it. I got to the post office just at the right time - no one in front of me, and as soon as I walked in, 6 people behind me. And it only cost $8 and change to mail! Such a good day!

And you all will be pleased to know that my husband, who thinks of my mosaicking as something I do that takes time away from stuff I should be doing, actually took the pictures of my project and put them up on my mac for me. But I know not to post those pictures ...

    Gosh didnt you get lucky not to stand in line!! I had to mail mine tuesday cause I work the day after Christmas and I was number 8 in line and that was 15 minutes before the post office opened!!! Oh well the line went pretty fast, I cant complain!!! Glad to see you got your gift done!!!! We cant wait to get them and open them up!! (yes, I am still going to try to wait till new years eve!!!)

    Yep, mine's a goner tomorrow. I'm leaving for AL and won't be back until after New Years. My mail will be held, so I'll open my exchange gift when we get back.

    Mine went out today too...company on the 26th would
    have made posting then impossible. So the person who gets
    my monstrosity will have it by Christmas Eve!
    Fair warning...I've set booby traps so I'll know
    if it gets opened before New Years Eve...;o)
    Just keepin' ya honest.

    well, I'm afraid if I'm one of those early recipients, I'll peak too. I'll try not to but hey... it might be difficult

    Mine went out today, keeping my fingers crossed it arrives intact! I'm really nervous, hope my recipient likes it. I did it with love, please know that! It's the thought that counts, right?

    What ever I get I know it will be so FREAKIN AWESOME!!!

    I have yet to be disappointed with an exchange gift and I have been in all of them except the watering can one (time wouldnt allow) I still cherish each and every one I have and visit them often. My fryingpan (from Hazie) has a place of honor in my living room on the wall and my bowl (from Nicethyme) is on a low table that sits in my living room in front of the front windows.

    Mine went out tuesday and I have delivery confirmation on it but I know it hasnt got there yet (well I assume anyhow) cause I checked on it.
