coffee mug with coffee
pen bag of candy
Washington magnet

Mickey antenna topper
book about the constitution
uno cards
heart earrings

mini turtle bean bag keycain
warm fuzzy socks
assortment of teas

Hope I got everything it was so much stuff and there were so many hands going into this box :lmao:


I just have to say Meriweather is the exchange queen if you have ever received a box from her you know what I am talking about!!!

Meriweather
02-12-2008, 06:23 PM
:woohoo: Glad to hear it arrived, Barbara. Hope there are some things in there to help you keep warm (there should have been some candles too ;) ).
Nice of you to share with your niece. Glad Pluto found someone to love him.

I checked DC this morning and it is in her state, so it should get there soon. :)

Also to my person, please do not cut it open. The box is very full and if you cut it, you will ruin one of the items.

Ok, checked again and it should have been delivered:

I recieved a very nice poodle throw, it feels very warm and a pair of soft slippers, plus a sheet of disney stickers. Thank you so much, these items will get lots of use.

Meriweather
02-13-2008, 02:50 PM

02-13-2008, 03:29 PM
:yay: it did get delivered today, glad you liked it. :)
Like I said my sister and I are a bit different in our thinking, I liked the poodle throw over the fleece ones. And she picked out the slippers, not the style I would have picked.

I just got a PM from her and she didn't mention it.
Does tracking say anything?

no b/c i'm in the middle of no where so whenever i go to look at it ...it still hasn't updated. Everything updates slower in the middle of no where:rotfl: when will she be returning? I can't wait to hear if she liked it hehe

Meriweather
02-13-2008, 09:41 PM
She will be back in a week ;) Might have to wait a bit.
She said she would get mail tomorrow before she leaves, so we can hope it arrives.

Girldreamer02
02-13-2008, 09:51 PM
i can wait...I have scrapbooking and packing to keep me occupied :)

Meriweather
02-13-2008, 10:04 PM
I can imagine you will be busy with your move coming....I'm busy and I'm not moving for several more months.
Did you package get shipped out to you today?

Girldreamer02
02-13-2008, 10:14 PM
I can imagine you will be busy with your move coming....I'm busy and I'm not moving for several more months.
Did you package get shipped out to you today?

yep it sure did:) thank goodness:) i guess there were two so i know one is the keep me warm i'm assuming the other is unbirthday:) I can't believe your busy and your not moving for a while, but I also only have a smallish apartment and not a house like you so it would take more time for you to prepare i'm sure. :)

Meriweather
02-13-2008, 10:25 PM
Glad they are on their way.
Yep....I have 20 years worth of crap to clear out.....and a basement, shop, garage and attic. I don't want to move all that stuff!!

eeek :scared1: one of the guys in the office warned us against buying stuff. he said since they have been traveling around (like we do) they have accumulated just so much stuff and they don't even really need it and hes been doing it for 20 yrs or so. I can only imagine. We have five big rubbermaid totes that we are sending on the back of a pick up truck home so that we'll be able to fit everything else in our cars. We'll be fine and we are going to cut down once we get home and repack for maryland. We'll be able to take out a bunch of our blankets and dvds and swap most of the bulky sweaters and hoodies out for warmer less bulky summer wear. I'm still going to take a hand full of hoodies b/c I tend to run cold a lot. I also have a snowman collection and they obviously don't need to go with us so that'll be less stuff too. good luck:)

Meriweather
02-13-2008, 10:52 PM
LOL....I can't imagine it all fitting in 2 cars :rotfl:
But then we have collected a lot.
We will definitely be using a moving service when the time comes and our new house will be as large, or larger :)

Meriweather
02-14-2008, 08:56 AM
Reminder....tomorrow is mail by date.
There are still a few people that need to get theirs mailed.
Please post here to tell us when they do go out :)

i'm scared to get a larger place because then i feel like the stuff will just expand even more, but if we have a small place then it can't do that b/c there is no place for it to expand to :rotfl:

Hi All ..... Okay - I sent Meriwether a PM to apologize, now I'll post to the group ...... I'm the slacker that didn't get mailed in time! :guilty: I had an unexpected work trip last week that took me out of state and then came home to the stomach bug! :sick: I tried really hard to get my package mailed Saturday, but that didn't happen. :headache: So .... it was sent Priority Mail today. I apologize again for the delay!!!

I did however receive my package - it came when I was out of town. It's from snowwhite's mom. I got:

slippers
gloves
gloves
Nightmare before Christmas toe socks
tights/hose

and now I think I'm forgetting something, but I can't remember WHAT for the life of me!!! :eek: If I remember, or if snowwhitesmom remembers for me, we'll post!
