Holiday Exchange Thank You Thread

I posted this on the Holiday Exchange Wish List Thread too, so sorry for the repeat~~~~~

OMG OMG I think I just received my Holiday Exchange package. I looked at the postage and thought to myself, "Hmm that's weird" because I have not traded for anything lately and the postage is international (keeping the country private in case my SS wants to keep it private) and opened it and the box is full of wrapped gifts. I'm leaving it unopened for oh about 30 more seconds and then I'll probably tear into it. I've never been patient. I'm going to try and wait to a date closer to Christmas. The operative word being "try".

Thank you SS. I can't wait to open everything!!!!

PS~ I still haven't unwrapped my gifts. A miracle!! LOL

You have more willpower than me AS soon as I know it's from my SS everything else gets put on hold until I tear into my gift

I've been fondling it all afternoon

I found the card and now know for sure my SS's name and username. I will not out her unless she wants me to. I'm keeping strong ladies!

I mentioned in the wishlist thread that I received a package from my Secret Santa. I think I'm going to save the specifics for when I know my Santa, since right now I just have a post-it note letting me know the 2 DVDs were from my VF Secret Santa - package was from Mary at totalfitnessdvds (I've heard of her helping out in the past and just had to google the return address to satisfy my hunch). Kind of wishing I'd had things sent separately to my giftee to save on postage and heighten the suspense - this is fun!

Did anyone who received their gifts open them yet? I am so impressed by such willpower to hold onto them without opening them

People are receiving packages already! I am always so jealous of the ones who just jump right in and get their packages mailed out. I am still obsessing over my giftee's gift list. I did buy 1 or 2 small things but the bulk of the items still need to be found and purchased.

I only have one thing left to get, but I think I'm going to wait until the end of this month or the first few days of December to mail. It doesn't feel like the holiday season to me yet. My giftee had a great detailed list of very easy to find items, which I really appreciated.
