Wow...is all I can say. When I opened the box and saw what was inside, I broke down and cried. Missy, you are the absolute best! You really made my day! I received 7 pairs of socks! A pair of Mickey Mouse slipper socks, a pair with cows, a pair with butterflies, a Scooby-Doo pair of socks, a pair of white socks with pink flowers, a solid pink pair and a white pair with pink "drinks" on it! Not only did I get 7 pairs of socks, Missy ALSO got me a princess antennae topper, a big Hershey's kiss, a plastic egg filled with M&Ms, 2 Disney princess pencils (which my DD immediately ran away with):cutie: and a box of Mickey tissues (I used them to wipe away my happy tears!). :yay:

Thank you so much Missy!:flower3: You have no idea what your package meant to me. I have been going thru some rough times and for you to have been so kind to someone you have never met....I'm blown away. Thank you again and I'm really glad to have been a part of this exchange!:thumbsup2

Hey, guys!!! :wave2:

Received my package today from Donna, "DJT". Here's what was enclosed:
1 pair brown striped bamboo/aloe socks (to soften feet) -- I need these!!! ;)
1 Pair white with red hearts
1 pair red with a girl on them (loves me/loves me not) -- so cute!!
1 pair black with kitties on them and recycle symbol :hippie:
1 pair red with reduce, reuse, re-gift (lol---that makes me laugh) :rotfl:
1 pair white with yellow chicks that have wobbly eyes :laughing:
1 pair pink bunny socks :yay:
1 pair white "Kiss me I'm Irish"
1 pair white spring time polka dots
2 pairs white/pink keds arch support socks

Donna, I absolutely love these!!! Thank you sooo much!!! :hug:

Have to share a funny story....I have a 1 yr old Shih Tzu (my baby) and when I got the box, he went absolutely crazy!!! No sooner had I got the box open than he had swiped a pair and took them to his "hiding place" and came back for more!!! :lmao: Now this is so funny because last week, I went to do laundry and couldn't find many pairs of my DBF's socks. I asked him where they were and he said they should be in the basket. We were left with the sock mystery until my little guy took off with this pair, and we found a WHOLE SOCK STASH!!!! :yay: He had been taking the socks unknowingly and hiding them under the couch! :headache: We now know that he loves socks and not to put them in the basket because he WILL get them! :laughing: Just had to share!!!

Thanks again, Donna, for the great exchange!!!!

Good morning :wave:

[DJT]

Good morning! By the way, you're doing a great job on these exchanges! Thank you! :woohoo:

Donna

[Cruisin]

:wave:

I'm here to report that my package has arrived:dance3:

And my goodness what a package it was. I've never seen a padded envelope that large before:eek:

I need to send major, major thanks out to Donna (dzee) for the amazing package that I received.

First of all everything inside the package was individually wrapped in pretty pink tissue paper or nice striped pink and purple tissue paper. It was just like Christmas opening everything up.

Inside I found:

A beautiful Tinkerbell tote bag. This will come in handy since my favourite grocery store is going plastic bagless next month.

All of these pairs of socks/slipper socks (13 in total:goodvibes )

green striped "mary jane slipper socks" with buterflies on the toes. I've not seen anything like these before.

blue sockets with coloured hearts

pink/purple/white and gold striped ankle socks

pink/white/purple striped ankle socks with pink and purple hearts in the stripes

pink and white striped ankle socks

white with black dotted sockets

"no show socks" that are blue/pink/green/purple/orange with some metallic highlights... really cool

white/purple/orange/yellow doggie socks

pink/purple/green and white socks covered with flowers

very plush black/pink/grey slipper socks

pink/darker pink with apples knee socks

pink/white/burgundy striped knee socks

plain pink with darker pink accents knee socks

All I can really say is WOW. I'm all set for socks for a very long time :teeth:

Also included in the envelope is some pastel Bunny corn which looks delicious and some very nice individually wrapped bittersweet chocolate squares. That is my all time favourite kind of chocolate. And of course all of that tissue paper that was used to wrap the socks in.

Thanks so much Donna for such a lovely and thoughtful package.

I think we really did save the best for last:thumbsup2

[dzee]

Yipee!!!:cheer2:
You are so welcome!!! :flower3: I'm sooo happy it finally made it!! I guess that's what you could call snail:snail: mail!!!:rotfl2::rotfl:::lmao:
Don't know if it was the best but I really had fun picking everything out for you!!! :thumbsup2 I'm so glad you liked everything!!;)
Enjoy!!!:woohoo:

[Meriweather]

Sounds like a package well worth waiting for ::yes::

And with that, this exchange is completed.....less than a week since mail date!! :yay:
Great going everyone.

[flakypuff]

Awwww I wish it wasnt over...lots of good packages out there.:cool1:

[Meriweather]
