    Mine shows delivered to my recipient on 12/17. I know she doesn't post here on the boards, so hopefully everything arrived safely and she's enjoying her gifts!

    Thanks for posting my pics dimi. See in Israel, my people have 2 villages there. Rafie went to one of my peoples village and actually got me that necklace and key chain from my village. And in Israel there's only Jewish, Palestinian and I believe circassian villages. I could be wrong. And the shirt as well. He took pics of the village and mt tavor. The guy just went WAY and ABOVE what I was expecting. Rafie, dude, awesome bro.
  • Its coming!! I swear!! I sent it!!

    The best expression of Love is Time.
    The best time to Love is Now.


    I'm never as good as when you're there.........
  • So, here are the pics of my present - Enkidu made it into a guessing game - each package had a part of the lyric and I needed to guess the PJ song. It wasn't that hard :-) becuase there were hurricanes, and I think there's only one song with that word :-D but it was so fun to see how creative she was to find all different things for each lyric (like little red devil horns and booklet on floods - hilarious!:-D)

    Thank you once again <3

    so it's christmas eve, two packages were sent to my person, one of which says it was delivered a week or so ago, and the other should have made it by now. I hope it arrived safe and sound after all the shipping issues!

    also, it gives me such a great feeling to see how amazing this group is, how happy everyone has made each other, with something so simple. thanks dimi, you are truly a gem.

    merry christmas/happy hannukah/happy kwanzaa/happy festivus all! peace, love, and pearl jam! ♡

    ^^^^this guy rafie knows how to put a package together!!! Very thought out. The shirt you sent me will be a part of my next tattoo rafie. The logo is sick and the eagles with the flag will be tattooed on my body soon brother!
  • Just wanted to pop back in here and say Merry Christmas to everybody. It looks like everyone got some cool stuff and had fun with it. I am sure everyone here will agree it all means nothing without the loved ones in our lives. Just got off work and am about to crack a frosty beverage and enjoy a wonderful evening with friends and family. I hope everyone gets to spend time with the people who matter the most during the holidays. HUGE thanks to Dimi for being the rock that made all this work. Everyone have a blast, be safe, and keep on truckin' in 2015.
