"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Well.. today was the day! As I had just cleared the living room to give the parquet a good cleaning and waxing, there was a welcome knock at the door (to be honest, even Jehovah's witnesses at the door would have been welcome at this stage!). But no, not Jehovah's witnesses but the postman with a parcel.... MY parcel! A BIG thank you to my Secret Santa, who's name is still Secret Santa as he/she has not revealed herself/himself! xxxxx
All the way from Canada
Mine!
It says I'm getting Odds and Ends....
Sniffer cat in action, just in case it's something sinister....
Opened, and confirmation it is definitely for me!
ooOOoo... lovely!!!!
In more detail - the wine I look forward to trying (don't know it - googled and it seems it's a lovely desert wine)...
A mixed CD of Canadian bands!!! (Also googled...)
And what you would think another lovely Christmas card but no....
Look more closely...A selection of Canadian coins - I'm now all set for when PJ play Canada.
And many thanks from the sniffer - a massive supply of 'toys'... Made her feel better. As you can see, she's had a little operation!
My SS recipient still hasn't replied to whether or not they have received their gift. They haven't logged on to the board since mid-December either. I hope all is well and that they've received their pressie.
Hey redrock, you may want to indicate no SS presents from Canadians next year Despite our best efforts, you have horrible luck receiving them before Xmas :wtf: :crazy: Btw, did the calendar that I sent separately last year ever show up?

The calendar did turn up. Sorry... didn't I tell you - I thought I did.... :oops:
I don't mind when the SS turns up. It's always good fun! And the cats always seem to enjoy it too (only one this time, the others were sleeping!)

Still wondering if my gift made it...I sent it at the end of November and the post office said it would only take 5 days. Hmmm.....
Wondering as well if mine made it.... Thinking positive..... Guessing her SS Recipient would have posted by now if they hadn't received anything......

Thank you Sprunkn7 for all you did for us! So very generous and kind.
We had a great SS party because of you!
When Sprunkn found out I was waiting for JB's package to come before I opened mine
I received kindness and understanding... thank you! and hugs!!
as the days ticked on, when I mentioned I was making JB a box from me
so he would not maybe go without
sprunkn sent JB a package too! so kind and generous ... really wonderful!
Thank you! Thank you!
All our gifts ... now let's Party!
my gifts... love the card and pics! I will cherish both!
My Loot! I got Great Christmas gifts to enjoy next year! I love Christmas!
Beautiful BIG red ornament
flameless candle lights, a P poinsettia bag ...
A sweater sock and felt snowman gift bag.
Snowman season is upon us so doggies are enjoying their treats ...
they say thank you! they love SS too!
I love my new snowman ornament...it has taken the honored place to hang
along side Charlie's dog tag on the the kitchen window latch
nummy chips( red & green!) and salsa too,
my poster! my first !! :oops: 20 years and my first! :shock: my favorites colors too!
I have planned to have it cooly mounted.
a really cute wine bottle stop ... 'Let's be jolly' oh yeah! That I can do!! :thumbup:
thank you for all my great gifts Sprunkn7 ... I love them one and all!
you are indeed a very special person!
And now for JB's gifts
Sprunkn7's package included a guitar bubble necklace, 4 dvd's ( I reap the benefits here too!)
a valentine package of unmentionables ( again I reap the benefits !) ... a poster
very cool ... thank you for your generosity and kindness! Means more than you know to us both!
My SS box for JB was the theme one of his favorite tunes... CRAZY MARY!
Here's the pics...
No loitering Ed coffee mug, his all time favorite quote t-shirt,
little blue car we used to race and the chronicles of our Crazy Mary live adventures,
worth some laughs and tears!
Our boy burned his Dad the dvd of our 29th wedding anniversary show
in Hartford May 15 2010 and the cd of Alpine Valley 2003, a most memorable adventure for us.
And well we can't forget the bottles to pass around ... again I reap the benefits :P
It was an awesome holiday season filled with family, love and joy! This SS party was wonderful
a really great memory and one more time ...
Well my "real" secret santa never arrived and it was sad and disappointing.
What was really cool and so very thoughtful was that 2 other secret santas made the end of my holiday season a memorable event. That would be my wonderful wife Pandora and a new friend named Sprunkn7.
Thanks To You Both!
Since I don't know how to post pictures Pandora will post my pictures for me. Sprunkn7, I am going to really like watching the DVDs you included in the package, I like to watch "PJ The Early Years" and love the 70s so the beginning of the Hendrix DVD is going to bring back some fond memories for me I am sure. Your other gifts were right on target smack dab up my alley as I am a huge soft spot in my heart for Snoopy and will make good use of the Snoopy gift and the guitar bubble necklace is so cool, I wore it all night. When the bubble mix is all gone I am going to refill it with "booze d'jour". I saved the best for last as you directed and it was a very sweet note inside the card from "you and yours" that sealed the deal. Belated Merry Christmas and I hope to meet you guys someday at a show in the south!
Pandora, I guess after 33 you know me pretty good but you never cease to amaze me at what a thoughtful, creative and caring lady you are, MY Lady, Thank You!
To share with all, I got home from work Friday night around the usual 8pm totally burned out from the long week to find that Secret Santa had finally arrived bearing gifts, snacks, tunes, drinks and much love. My Santa knows that I am fond of the PJ song Crazy Mary and themed my incredible gift around that. I tried to capture the moment in pictures but could not capture the emotion I was overcome with. Pandora made me a card that listed the 8 concerts we have been to when Eddie did Crazy Mary and then reflected on the tickets we had that night, what was happening in our life during that time. This card also had the correct lyrics because I am a real "pizza burner" if you know what I mean. Then I also found a bottle of red wine in a brown bag to take down and pass A round and then you guessed it I found another bottle in another bag to drink it down and pass it around.
Pandora also made a special mug for me that has a picture of eddie with the wine bottle singing Crazy Mary and the words NO L.O.I.T.E.R.I.N.G. ALLOWED.... which I immediately filled up with Margarita and used it for the rest of the night even drank wine out of it, woke up in the morning and it still had a lime in the bottom of it.
The I found a DVD of the Hartford show May 15th 2010 a very special anniversary show for us, thanks to all that helped make that happen . A CD from Alpine Valley 2003, that was where we knocked the headboard off the wall, hehehe and the concert was pretty good too! But then came the most special gift of all, the kind where you can feel it inside the gift wrap but don't have a clue what it could be, wow I freaked out it was "the old blue car we used to race" I love that type of stuff it is so cool and I will have until the day I die in my box of "a boy's treasures". PS another gift I am wearing my shirt today as I type this that says "that what you fear the most could meet you halfway" Thank You Pandora You Are AWESOME.
That what you fear the most could meet you halfway
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
