Sorry, everyone should have to suffer that song at least once. Doesn't everyone love good mail? I enter giveaways and exchanges to get it. They're doubly exciting because I get the thrill of shopping for and then mailing something (ok, that part's not the funnest part) and then, ooooh mail.
Here's what those fine folks at the USPS brought to me today...
Gorgeous Christmas ornaments from Rachel at Something to Blog About. She received my name when she entered Abbilyeverafter's Ornament Exchange.
Next was this bulging box from Jeannie's Happy World.
Can you see how Jeannie hooked me up?! I just have to sell off the children so that I can slip away and pamper myself now. Included in the box was her very own cookbook, a cranberry candle (YUM), Burt's Bee's Lip Balm (my lips are thanking you Jeannie), bath pillow, moisturizing socks and gloves...really, it would take a whole post to list it all, can you see all of the stuff in here?! Note to future swappers: If you draw my name, cry "foul!" because I can guarantee you, my box did NOT look this nice.
And last, but certainly not least... I think I choked up a little on this one....
I actually WON this lovely piece (movie companion) of THEMOVIE I'MSTILLWAITINGTOSEE ~sniff~ from Julie over at My Journey to Family.
See, I have good days too. Of course it will be hard to beat this one....
What have you received in the mail lately?

I love presents! I just received a copy of Bram Stoker's Dracula from The Baroness!

I totally get you! I just won an adorable Thanksgiving platter from Suburb Sanity.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm SHAMELESS in asking friends and family for postcards. 1, because I travel vicariously through others (hello, small children here) but 2, because I covet fun mail.
Blessings, Whitney

ReplyDeletenofing. not.one.fing. Except bills, of course, and rejections from publishing companys. Oh mail! Oh joy!
ReplyDelete(I love Steve singing that song. Joe sucks. Spread the word.)
Lately, I've gotten a couple of Christmas party invitations, but nothing so great as what your mail brings you. Apparently I'm not the multi-tasker I imagined myself to be...
ReplyDeleteI aspire to be Jeri!
BILLS...not kissing the post man though tehe!!
ReplyDeleteLook at your mail treasures and oooo the poster tears of bliss..heavens opened!!
Wow! Did you get all that in ONE day?
ReplyDeleteMaybe you'll have something else coming soon. My giveaway ends tonight. :)
Was that a Steve or a Joe mail song? Cause it really does matter. And, I saw the movie again. Better the 2nd time. Congrats on the haul!
