    My SS has the spirit of Christmas living in their heart! The greatest gift .....
    to take the time to know a stranger and have the generosity to give, not only give but to please.
    I was truly touched Friday evening when JB and I had our SS party.
    The letter that came along with my gifts...which I opened last, as directed :D and read aloud was the best part. Hearing JB chuckle as I read each line and our eyes widen with how well this person from across the miles had researched and learned about me.
    That is the spirit. I feel like I made a new friend! Thank you for that!!
    Here are the pics from our party.

    CIMG1395.jpg before we opened... JB's on left, mine on right.... party snack and libation in the middle!

    here's my sock emptied...notice the cow wrap...I did! I love cows being the WI girl I am!!

    JB's pretty gifts

    CIMG1406.jpg JB's unwrapped!

    CIMG1410.jpgmine unwrapped!

    CIMG1427.jpg
    Lucy got a Holiday chew!

    CIMG1432.jpg
    Maddie Lou Whoo too!!

    CIMG1430.jpg
    and Charlie had a little heaven thanks to Sprunkn7 :lol:


    As you all can see from the pics..we made out like bandits!
    Good music, some new too for JB to discover, which he loves
    Eddie solo :shock: for me...wowzers
    awesome pics for the frig, my favorites too! I feel better already with Eddie in the kitchen! ;)
    I got Dog tags with my fav quote from Once...special meaning for me
    Those pretty led multi colored snowflakes for the window are awesome!
    CIMG1469.jpg

    can't forget the cheese dip...JB will share his wine I will share the dip! I feel another party coming on :D

    From the bottom of my heart thank you so much Sprunkn7 you are a very special person! Enjoy your Holidays!!

    i hope that my secret santa, pearljgirl2010 has a wonderful holiday season. She made mine special with the special gifts she sent me. See the pictures above in Pandora's post.
    I will really enjoy listening to the "non pearljam" music as I try to expand my musical horizons while I commute about 10 hours weekly in rush hour traffic, when I get home I am going to take the time to enjoy this awesome bottle of red wine, my fav, from the Lehigh Valley region of PA, definitely pearl jam country. Not to mention exploring the 1000 places to see before I die, book! I wonder if I have seen any yet? I love the pearl jam music discs you found for me, Nothing is as it seems (1 of my top ten for sure!!!!!) and the Jeremy, Footsteps and Yellow Ledbetter disc, very cool, thank you. and not to forget the cool gift bags that it al came in.
    Let's all check out some of the non pearl jam music while we wait for a new PJ CD!
    White Lies: to lose my life
    Dropkick Murphys: the meanest of time
    Black Rebel Motorcycle Club: baby 81
    Black Keys: rubber factory
    Thank You Very Much,
    Merry Christmas,
    JBii
    That what you fear the most could meet you halfway

    That was a great Thank You Pandora!
    It was fun to see the pictures. I love the dogs!
    You made me all warm and fuzzy inside....

    So glad you liked everything. I did a small print of EV from Philly for my fridge too. I think of PJ SS every time I look at it. It does feel better in the kitchen with him doesn't it?

    Have a wonderful holiday! I think you have a better chance of snow than we do!
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!
  • Wow, awesome to see everyone really enjoying their SS gifts. Some amazingly creative gift ideas. I'm still waiting for the SS gift I sent to arrive at it's destination. It's been almost five weeks since I sent it :shock: :twisted: I hope that arrives before Xmas, but if it doesn't, than I just want to apologise to my SS recipient on behalf of Canada Post and Mother Nature :oops: ;):)

    Nothing for me yet. I'm sure it's because the puppy is too young to leave his mother.

    It's all right, I'm patient.

  • Maybe its because your SS saw how angry you were at Mr. Unlostdogs...remember..

    You better not pout, you better not cry...? :D

    Thank you to my Secret Santa :) (I couldn't find a PJ message board Moniker anywhere on the box so I'm not sure who you are.)
    I received a package on Saturday.
    I got a red heart shaped vinyl by HEART and a bunch of yummy flavored Lippees's (chapsticks) I'm addicted.
    The box also contained a beautiful SnowFlake card.

    Thanks again...........Happy Holidays Everyone!!
    The best use of Life is Love.
    The best expression of Love is Time.
    The best time to Love is Now.


    I'm never as good as when you're there.........

    Irish Al... rest assured!

    I came home from work today in a rotten mood (well, admittedly a little less rotten after a series of cheerful texts and then a too-short phone conversation with Boo Boo... frigging' MBTA tunnels!) to find a long tube waiting for me, with a little tiny return address at one end _ Al... from Ireland... must be Irish Al! (Pretty quick on the uptake, I am.)

    The image below does not nearly do it justice...

    Picture an absolutely GORGEOUS signed Brad Klausen poster. Gdynia, Poland show from July 1, 2010. It's the most amazing design, a sea monster taking down a sailing ship. (I just read a little bit about Gdynia, it's a Baltic Sea seaport.) Just incredible, the art took my breath away.

    I'm going to have it framed and it will be hanging either in the dining room or in the front hall. It's just beautiful.

    And with the poster... a PJ badge made up by the European bunch, a PJ sticker, and a bag of the most delicious Irish caramels. Tore them open and ate one before I took the photo below. And, as sweet and truly appreciated, a note from Irish Al himself!

    Al, you made my day. You really did.

    Thank you so much!!!

    (((hug)))
