Two gifts purchased yesterday, one has already confirmed shipping (official details also have been sent).

Just waiting on the third to elaborate a little.

Thank you to my Santa x

Wish I knew who you are though 🤨🧐
My second gift arrived. It’s a fabulous 1,000 piece jigsaw of loads of cute dogs perching on a sofa… so lovely. Thank you Secret Santa. You’ve been so thoughtful and kind. I’m delighted.

Thank you 😘

I’ve absolutely loved this experience.
Thank you Wharvey.
Sadly I failed to ship my gifts yesterday as I’m in bed with a nasty chest infection. Hopefully the antibiotics will kick in and I’ll be up and about in a day or so. Hope my Santee is patient 🎄

Going to out myself. You should have two packages from me (well your dog should have one and you should have one). I wasn't able to include a note in the one from Blueland. Enjoy the new home! I love Blueland's products and have them in all 5 bathrooms

Ah, so the Blueland package we got was part of FT secret Santa!

We got a set for Mrs. WS93's parents last year and they loved it, so we thought it may have been from them. Thanks Redhead for the 2nd year in a row!

Gumbo is ready to enjoy his treats

SANTA UPDATE:

I want to thank everyone who has provided me with gifts sent and gifts received messages. I have been able to update my records with all information.... there are 159 different assignment I have to keep up with... so I appreciate all you do to help me.

As I indicated before, we will be leaving tomorrow for a short holiday/anniversary trip to Universal Studios. As such, I will have limited opportunity to deal with Santa issues. I will check for messages... but realize I am not carrying my laptop nor my assignment files.

I hope that everyone has a wonderful holiday who celebrates it!

Received a couple more nice gifts from Kipper today.

She had me a year or two ago and sent me some really good Chocolate Donut coffee and I got a package of that. Also received some really good cocktail jelly bellies, a nice martini glass rimmer with a cute lime fork, some flavored martini rimming salts and a package of flavored margirita mixers. I'll be enjoying a couple margaritias on black Friday if I don't get to try them tomorrow.

LOL, this year, other than the coffee and tea, I did a margarita/cocktail theme. I love Mud Pie stuff because of the sayings on everything.

Living where it doesn't get cold or snow threw me off! I absolutely missed the deadline for this year. I can't wait to see all the photos of the thoughtful gifts that everyone sends.

Wrapping up my shopping before I send out my package to my Santee, should go out tomorrow or Friday, all items in one box.

This is fun!

I just got a delivery and I think it might be from my secret santa! I will open it up later - hoping it is!
