I wanted to say thank you to my wonderful Secret Santa. I received the most adorable cactus ornament with Christmas lights on it. Too cute!! Then I unwrapped the next thing in the box and it was the most beautiful wooden carved turtle. I love them both!! My SS is from Arizona. But I don't know who it is. I received them a few days ago but that afternoon I slipped and fell in my daughters mop water. I broke my arm and fractured my elbow :( hard to shop like that. So I'm running behind. I will post pictures of my surprises later. Once again, THANK YOU Secret Santa!!

I just saw that I had forgotten to write the comment I had in my head this morning. Sorry you got hurt and I bet it does make things much harder for you. Hope you are a fast healer. :D

(im)patiently awaiting the arrival of my secret Santa gift [GRINNING FACE WITH SMILING EYES] it probably got delayed because of the bad weather up north.

I believe my Ss was Kerryann, :D, due to the first initial and last name on package. Thank you so much, I luv the Lil tort ornament and and everything else. Thank you so much.

Wait a minute I thought the return name and address would be corporate :D. I thought the detroit return address would give it away anyway. I am miss Detroit. :cool: The chocolate is a Detroit made candy too. I thought that might give it away. I am glad you like it all.

I will post my pictures tonight. My SS was awesome. This is my first time posting about my gifts so I apologize for being late. I got a beautiful gift box with a wonderful bright green tortoise christmas ornament. A great box of chocolate covered pretzels. OH and I got a silver tortoise with the following words. "Thinking of you". Which is awesome because I am going through a lot right now in my life. It was like she or he (which I am guessing female) knows me and is supporting me through a tough time. I have to admit, I cried. Beautiful gifts. I would love to know who my SS is now by the way. The suspense. ;)

On the flip side I will announce who's SS I was. Kerryann. I am glad to see she enjoyed and appreciated her gift. I got the shirt kinda big not knowing her size. I felt like it was on the safer side, she can wear it with a comfy pair of sweat pants or PJ pants. :D

I agree with you wellington. This is great fun!

I love that shirt and I actually love it that size. I prefer to run around pantless at home and that shirt allows me to do that in confidence even downstairs. I typically don't wear ts much other than for exercising and sleeping so again it couldn't be better. It even goes with the stuff I have been trying to improve in my technical skillsets (SCSS and CSS). :D

I hope my secret Santa didn't forget about me [DISAPPOINTED FACE] I still haven't gotten my gift yet. I really hope it's the post office that's just still backed up from all the holiday shipping. And probably the bad weather around the country too.

I cheated a tad. My husband is an IT guy. I asked him for assistance. ;) I found the shirt, and he agreed it was one that was perfect for what you're doing. :)
