    celia...........because lovesdubs already received her gift from yersu awhile ago and kelpie's has been sent already as well as dawn's (she may have received hers already....things are starting to run together )

    As of my notes, these are the ones that are waiting for gifts that I haven't heard anything about yet:

    • funkyderek
    • eyegirl
    • celia
    • syn
    • randomtask
    • scully
    • beautifulgarbage
    • trotofax
    • asortafairytale

    Edited to jumble up the names so celia wouldn't figure out who her secret santa is!

    ...Now how could I figure out who my Secret Santa is from this list ? Hmmmmmm... My brain is tired. Does anyone know

    I'll tell you, celia, so you don't fall over from exhaustion! lol

    I listed 9 "santas" that I needed to hear from yet

      • perry
      • veniceIt
      • wildthing
      • goshawk
      • grout
      • mamashel
      • sortafairytale
      • coolbreeze
      • queer reality

      These are the "Secret Santas" that I haven't heard from yet.......please email me when you get the chance and let me know if your gifts have been mailed out so that I can pass on the info. Thanks!

      ...on my desk, these "santas" and recipients are listed on the same line......when I originally copied down the list of those still waiting for their gifts (before editting).....I listed them in the same order as the "Santas"....so you could have matched up names no problem and found out the secret! BUT.....to make sure that you didn't, I edited the list so you have no idea (but you do know that one of these nine people listed above is your "Santa") and I can't say no more! LOL

    I'm very happy for everyone who's participated and had their gifts arrive safely already. I'm glad my "giftee" is enjoying what I sent to her. I enjoyed making it especially with her in mind (and threw in something with a local flavor for good measure).

    It's great that out of so many participants in the beginning, we're down to less than 10 who have yet to receive their exchange. I'm still eagerly awaiting mine... and hope it arrives soon!!

    Love, Scully

    5 days to Christmas! I have posted a list of "Secret Santa's" that I haven't heard from. I have sent numerous emails and public postings asking for them to contact me. I searched thru the member list and most have had recent activity on the board.....all but three. I realize it is a busy time of the year, and that may be why their posting activity has slowed down. But none-the-less, I want to make sure that their Christmas gift recipients are not forgotten. So.....what I ask of you fine people, is this.......

    In the event that there are three gifts that are not delivered, would anyone be willing to help me out in sending an extra gift? My email is open, so drop me a line. These are the people still waiting for gifts:

  • funkyderek
  • eyegirl
  • celia
  • syn
  • randomtask
  • scully
  • beautifulgarbage
  • trotofax
  • asortafairytale
  • So........you guys on the list.......I don't want you to write me saying you will help out! Your job is to be patient.......

    I think I have figured out who my Secret Santa is.... Did he have a snake in his computer not so long ago ? Scooter, I am very patient you know. My BDay is on January 4, it will be a Birthday present if it does not arrive before Christmas ... and ... <<cough>> ... it will be my 50th .

    Scooter, here is the thread, go look, it is freaky

    That I am not familiar with, Celia. LOL.....sorry!

    Yeah! I heard from one of our "missing Santas" and can cross off another name. Funkyderek, your gift is on it's way and your Santa appreciates your patience.

    That still leaves me with two "missing Santas"....hoping to hear from them soon.

    This list of those still waiting is:

  • eyegirl
  • celia
  • syn
  • randomtask
  • scully
  • beautifulgarbage
  • trotofax
  • asortafairytale
  • scootergirl

    We had a very special "santa's helper" offer to help out w/the gifts and as far as I can see, no one was forgotten. Your gifts may not arrive exactly before Christmas Day, but should arrive at everyone's doorstep soon after.

    I sent out an email earlier today and I really believe what I wrote......let me share it with you:

    ....I am just so astounded by this. I have seen so many open their hearts to people on the board.....whether it is a thoughtful post, a listening ear in chat, or simply making someone feel special during the holidays, it really warms my heart and makes me so glad to be part of something so wonderful.
    It is a wonderful life, isn't it?!

    Caligirl is also still waitingby the mailbox, but not on the still waiting list. Did the post office decide that I don't live at my address again and send my gift back? Or does scootergirl know something I don't and it is on the way?
