Mine arrived today. Thank you Secret Santa for the beautiful framed picture you took from the London, Ontario 2005 show. It's awesome I love it. One of my all time favorite shows. The Canada tour was such a fun time. I'm also enjoying the cd you sent me as well. Always great hearing new music. Trully one of the best gifts I have ever been given. Thank you

i'm so GLAD!
and yea......i knew you loved seattle from your e-mail, but of course, i could not leave out my beloved NY. that and b&w photography were the only 'clues' of yours i used, so i am so happy you love the ornaments! i hope you got a leaf too?! should've been in there.
damn, pretty fine service from the post....sent it out on the 24th, pretty good! i see some people haven't mailed yet? :eek: i thought helen posted that all pressies needed to be out on the 26th? that's the only reason i got mine out on the 24th b/c i can only get to the post office on saturdays. hmmm. guess it's the teacher still in me, give me directions/deadline...i have to follow. haha.
anyhoooo.....ENJOY!
i really am so HAPPY you LOVE it all. :cool:
btw - what investigative skills...you actually took the pics out of the frames and found my signature on the back eh? good job.

How could I forget the leaf...that leaf is so beautiful. Im actually thinking about using it as a necklace. Gorgeous!!!
Yes, I did investigate!!! I saw your address on the package and saw 'New York' and your initials and I did wonder whether it was you from that!
I got some "happy hippy" Lush shower gel which smells SOOOO good! (and funny because I didn't mention it in my email but I LOVE bath/body products!) Can't wait to try it!
Some maple candy--which I also REALLY love maple!
Some very cool jewelry (btw I LOVE those styles--it is like you can read my mind!) And I love the way the stone feels and looks too! It is all very cool and I can't wait to wear them!
A Banff sticker
And, I can't BELIEVE you gave this to me, but a pick from Sir Mike McCready! :eek:! I do promise to love it and keep it safe!
Thank you so much! You really spoiled me! <<<<<HUGS>>>>>
p.s. i got you a used sock and a moldy carrot... enjoy
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
yay! i just got home and there was a present waiting for me! the box is so pretty - all painted and little christmas designs on the name area....i almost don't want to ruin it by opening it....
ALMOST!
ok, can't wait any longer...going to open....will report back in a minute!
thank you soooooo much to my austrian secret santa! you are incredibly thoughtful and put a lot of time into putting together this great package!! i love it!
my gift includes:
-a BEAUTIFUL red candy dish...i love it and it's already displayed on my coffee table!
-a cute angel keychain
-cookies, which i am quickly making my way through...sampling one of each, at least.
-a 2008 diary/planner and my SS designed the cover (i'm assuming since it matches the cool packaging)! it's so unique - i love it! and i'm not sure if i was supposed to wait, but i cheated and skimmed through it. my SS left thoughtful little notes throughout the year!
-a mix cd and movie. the cd is currently loading up in my itunes and i can't wait to listen to it! i love the songs i know on here, so i'm excited to hear the other ones. i have a hunch my SS has fabulous taste in music. i can't wait to check out the movie when i can, too!
oh, and really good smelling little flowers and stuff filling it up!
thank you SO much! my gift was so thoughtful and creative!
ok, i just looked through the planned some more...i was the kid that would unwrap presents and rewrap them b/c i'm such a snoop...but anyhow, my SS revealed herself... so thank you bedface_cooper!!! i'm convinced you are the best secret santa ever!
:eek: wow, so far everyone went to sooooo much effort congrats all, that's fantastic!
The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
Verona??? it's all surmountable
Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"

I'm SO glad you like it!
Kids! Bringing about Armageddon can be dangerous. Do not attempt it in your own home.
I just got home and mine was waiting!!! : D
Now it's sitting in front of me. I'm still resisting.
I opened it!!!!!!! I swear, it was talking to me. "Open me, come on, open me, you know you want it!"
Best xmas-present EVER! xD
First I wasn't sure if I should really open it... So I only got rid of the howsitcalledinenglish? wrapping paper, to see that the present was wrapped in lovely gift paper :- ) and there was an envelope, which I of course had to open immediately. Had a hard time with deciphering the "doll" (at least I believe that's what it meant? ).
When I finally got convinced by various people to open it because "why not if it has already arrived and why would you wait anyways???" I just did it ; )
I got a fingerdrum-thingie, which is like one of the most brilliant things I've ever seen I'm already annoying my whole family haha. I also _love_ the sweets. And I got small bottle of whisky?! I dunno how Santa knew about that (ah well, except for that he knows everything anyways), but that's just brilliant?! : D
Thanks Santa!
