Jezebel's Surprise Advent Package Train

[wendyjane]

All wrapped and ready to mail tomorrow! I've just got one more to pick up from CP!

And I know, I know...
My gifts are in bags, but I had a few really odd shaped items.
So this worked a lot better!
Also, this way my buddy can reuse some of the bags for their Christmas gifts!

amazing!! looks great - too great in fact I wouldn't open them - well maybe I would but leave the bags under the tree and the family would be jealous of all my pretties :S

[Jezebel]

Mailed!! Jezz - do you want us to give you tracking number? Cost $20 with venture card. I should have done open now gifts but nothing else would fit!!

On another note, since packages are arriving should we start guessing buddies? I didn't even put my name on the package in case my buddy doesn't want to know till dec.1!

yes everyone please send me tracking numbers along with the name of your buddy

Lol. That eliminates just the Albertans... Not a great hint- but I know you're not my buddy anyways.

yup deff not your buddy !!!

Hello Everyone. Sorry for not chatting. In a nut shell I have encountered some rather unpleasant side effects to medications over the last week and a half that has landed me in and out of the ER several times and then eneded in a 6 day stay. The great news is that I believe it is all straightened out now. Just an FYI to my buddy, I had completed all the major shopping for your gifts and all that is left are the easier and not as important items. That said lol, I am trying to locate some of your gifts that were in my car at the time of my uplanned addmission. My hubby says, I put all the stuff in the bags away like you would have. YIKES! Uh huh, I see that some of the edible items went straight into someones tummy (judging by empty wrappers and containors) PFFFFTTT. I am on a scavenger hunt over here and am locating the other items one at a time LOL. I shall resume my search in the morning as I now have the general vicinity of where the other gems are LOL.

Wishing you all a wonderful evening

Here is a sneak peak of my little buddies package

[missbee217]

Pumpkin, am I losing it or do I see the word crap in your box? haha I love love loove that silver wrapping paper!!!

Pumpkin, you are just hilarious!

I have a hint for my buddy! His or her provincial tax is more than mine!

You must have a buddy in Ontario...I think we have the highest taxes!

nor mine
no iphone and if my 6yr old daughter has one I'm not paying the bill - she likes to play guessing games on the phone with grandma in BC

the parcel is in the car and the reindeer is ready :D

*hurries back to look at car *

You guys crack me up!

[slambert]

Pumpkin, you are just hilarious!

You guys crack me up!

In NS we pay 15% What is it in Ontario now? I think we should all move to Alberta!

Buddy and little buddy your package shows it will be delivered tomorrow!!!!!

[PammieD]

Ontario's HST is 13% (8% provincial).

[scbpooh]

Hubby just took my package to work to be mailed today!

[coyote00]

Looking at all these pictures is definitely lifting my spirits this morning . I just found three more of the gifts hubby "stored" away for me LOL. I found two in my laundry stockpile which is really funny because they are not anywhere near close to being those types of items and one tucked away on my computer desk (another strange place given what the item was). I don't want to hazard a guess where the wrapping paper is however, it is still early here and I will enjoy a coffee before continuing my scavenger hunt .

Hope to see a lot more pictures today, you are all so awesome

[garbagepicker]

Yes we both have iphones
subway
turtles turtles yahyahyah turtles turtles rahrarhrah!

[NickiB]

Ok Jez, I'm taking you up on the offer to mail Nov 15th... My original box was 3 gifts too small... soooo, I opened up MY box from JulieJolie this morning as it was about 2 inches longer... Umm, nope, still a no go... Will be on the search for box #3 after work today!

P.S. I only squeezed the packages a little when I opened my box from JJ.. day 15 is intriguing.. I can feel something, but have no CLUE what it is... (I will have to re-pack it tonite as well... otherwise I might get a little too touchy feelie with them....)

[Peachykeen2007]

I too am having my coffee atm, dumba** was late picking up his son and then I am out the door, post office, a couple of stores and then I will be ready to come on over to help

Mailing my package later today Here's a hint: My buddy has kids.

[PammieD]

Anyone want a screaming baby? She's perfect if she's being held! You just need to hold her all the time...no pee breaks allowed! As long as you're good with that, she's a perfect little munchkin!!! :D

oh coyote, hope you are now on the mend! thinking of you ((hugs))

sounds familiar

DD was like that too! I used to take her to the bathroom with me (sounds wrong, but you do what you have to do). She also required to be walked (holding her in my arms) to fall asleep sometimes it took hours UNTIL she took the soother - BEST invention ever! It took 2 weeks of trying to get her to take the soother, she used to spit it across the room at first. She started taking it at 6weeks, then all that walking/extended holding stopped!
