So I took two things out (pics to follow) and put two things in and the box is now winging it's way to KFdancer!  ;D

(I put a little something extra for Sobe in there too. [smiley=iloveyou.gif])

Ahh, I'm so relieved the parcel has only just left you, larrabee! My husband and I have been working virtually nonstop on the reception desks this week, so I haven't had time to keep up with the status of the parcel.  I still have to decide what I'll be putting in!  Take your time when you get it, KF!

On the bright side, the desks are looking as planned, and they're almost finished.  :)

Yay!  I can't wait to see what you and larrabee pick(ed)!  But take your time!   I really need to sort out what I'm putting in... I'm up next!  Eep.  :)

Woohoo!  I know what's going in too.   :)

haha if only I had gotten in sooner and got behind you, we could've shared postage by only posting out and not to each other!

Oh!  Do you want to move up?  It would mean the person currently before you would need to coordinate with the person after you, but then you could squeeze in before me to buy me some time.  ;)  And you two could combine shipping.

hahaha no no, it's okay! I just had a cheeky "oh sh*t, that would have worked!" thought. I am fine with my place in the queue hahaha no VIP here. :) Appreciate the thought though!

Hehe... okay.  My suggestion was a little self-serving, and it would have inconvenienced a few others, anyway.  I tried.  :P

I'm looking forward to my turn.  I just need to think quickly about what I'm putting in.  *cough cough* If KF was the forgetful sort, she might not get the parcel packed and shipped my way 'til after the weekend, and then I wouldn't feel guilty about it having it for more than a week.  ;)

I feel like there was a hint peppered in there but....I can't really tell......LOL

Okay, KF, we're in the clear!  If you posted the parcel any time after now, there is no way I would get it before my husband left for work on Monday morning, so that gives me a week+ to sort out my contribution (s).  Thank you for mitigating my guilt!  :)

Happy to oblige!  I’ll get it out on Monday.   :)

Hehe... and now I'll continue under the assumption that you really did delay for my sake and not just because you are a busy person.  :)
