Finally I had a slow enough day today at work (so far- I still have about 45 minutes before my driver arrives so things could get chaotic). I just got mine sent out today. It should arrive around 3/17. Sorry SS for my tardiness.

I'm with you, I have to apologize to my sis too because I just sent mine out. But it should get there if it isn't already. I hope you love it.

I haven't received mine yet, but, if my SS is anything like me, I understand why she may or may not have been able to get it out yet.

LOL, I know this time around I was like you. I haven't gotten mine either, but my SS should have gotten or will get hers soon.

So who has gotten theirs? I want to reveal soon. (am I allowed to say that when I know I sent mine out late too?)

Well, I know that my SS shouldn't expect her's until Monday, cause I processed it myself.

I've received mine, but haven't heard if my SS received hers. She should have, but I'm not sure she's been on lately either...will have to check on that.

I've gotten lots of PM's from people that their packages are just going out, so things should start arriving fairly soon.

GOT MINE! I GOT MINE!!

Now trying to solve the mystery of who she is...... an Atlanta return address, with a Wisconsin post mark.

A wonderfully encouraging note and a beautiful bookmark. Very nice handwriting. A title by two authors I've never heard of before.

Yes, but I still don't have a clue about who she is.

I wish I could start reading the book right now, but I want to finish Facing Your Giants before I start another book.

I got that book for dh a few Christmases ago...he hasn't read it yet. I forgot about it until now, I should read it!

I'm still looking forward to receiving my SS book.

I am thinking that since I really didn't offer much info, my sis was frustrated when trying to decide which book to send. Still waiting, but my mail has not come today so we will see. Hopefully by the weekend because I am having those monthly issues that put me in bed early every night. I don't have many books and so I would love a new book to read. Although, I do have my bible that I probably should dust off. I haven't been in it in a week.

I know I need to so maybe that is why I don't have a book yet. Because I have the one to read that I have been avoiding.

Ok, so my mail didn't come at its regular time, but then I saw mail in my neighbors mail box so I checked again. Nothing. Not even junk mail. So, a few hours later, the mailman comes knocking at my door, and I am like so excited because he has this box and the rest of my mail. I was soooo excited because I just knew there would be a book.

I took the box and I could hear things moving around in it that definanitely did NOT sound like a book. So I looked all around the book and here it was the movies I bought for my kids. Have you ever heard of Feature Films? They make movies for kids that teach little lessons. They are cute and my kids do like them. So I got this package where I guess I am getting 20 movies, but I can't remember what I bought. I will look at my invoice when I open the box. So, no SS today. But my kids are happy for the movies.

Aww, I hope you enjoy the movies with the kids though.

I doubt my SS has gotten her's yet.

LOL, I still have to open the box. My husband's son and his son's mom (adoptive) I always clarify because most people think I mean his ex. are staying her tomorrow night. His son is 17 so I am pretty sure he isn't going to want to watch these movies. I will let my kids have them next week and when their homework is done and rooms are clean, I will let them pick out one to watch.

Anyway, today my mail came and while I didn't get my book, I got a letter that stated I have now paid off a certain credit card, and then another that one of our cars is paid in full, and the clear title will follow. While I did work hard to get those things done, that still was a great gift for the weekend. Now we only have one car payment. YAY!

Me too thank you!

So did anyone else get their books yet? At our last exchange, my ss went above and beyond. And I do have to say that the wonderful (perfect color for me) throw blanket she gave me is now what I wrap myself in when I pray or do my homework from study. I would use it when I read my bible, but I usually do that in a tub of bubbles so that wouldn't work out too good. So once again THANK YOU FROM LAST TIME!

I got my package! I actually got it a few days ago, and haven't had a chance to post until today.
I got a Karen Kingsbury novel, I've never read any of her books, so that's exciting to have a new author to try! I also got a 'Prayer for dummies' which is rad..I don't spend nearly enough time in prayer...so it's perfect for me! LOL
Thanks SS! I can't wait to find out who you are...
by the way Stacy, when shall we reveal? Who's left that has not recieved?
Sandy

I already got my mail for the day so unless mine shipped with someone other than the post office, I won't be getting mine today.

How many people signed up? I know some just sent their packages so maybe we can reveal on Friday regardless of who got theirs and who didn't? I think that is a good timeframe because we were supposed to have them mailed out by the first right? I think three weeks later is enough time. So how about we reveal on Friday. Not sure if my SS is loving her book and I want to know.
