2012 Christmas Kris Kringle Across The Contintents

[ms spock]

It has been a delight to be involved in this, I must say, enjoying everyone's excitement. I have enjoyed getting to know other people more and to get to know my Kris Kringle a bit more.

I did enjoy the shopping and the choosing of the present. B even bought a few Chrissy pressies as well, excited by my enthusiasm. I did stress about my pressies a little bit, worrying if they would be okay for my Kris Kringle. I think they might be okay. I hope so.

I was delighted to receive my Kris Kringle present and I have been good beyond my wildest dreams and not opened it or peeked. ROFL!!!

I have always been worried that I would take on other forumites stuff on too much so I haven't strayed too much from my trauma diary, which is more, about day to day stuff these days. But I have been stepping out on the forums a bit more and mostly being contained. I am just sharing my rational thinking and compassion, as I can.

Thank you so much to Nicolette for putting the time and energy into organising the Kris Kringle for us all. Much appreciated Nicolette! It has helped me feel more of a part of the ptsd forum.

No gift for me yet

Hmmmmm, since when can pirates be trusted! The stars say your will arrive on opening day! Sorry I could
not resist. I know how you feel none here yet either. ((((((Hugs)))))))

I hope your presents arrive soon!

I am sure they must be in the post wending their ways to you both!

Yes, me too! I just hope my recipient likes the gift :tup:

Still waiting for the postman bearing a gift . . hope I don't have to wait too long :whistling::)

Now to wait until I fly home for Christmas

Oh the suspense! At least it is out of reach for shaking! Hugs Whitney

@ Whitney: LOL...Funny you should mention that. I am notorious for opening gifts early. It has gotten to the point where my mom tries to time when she mails my gifts so they arrive on Christmas Eve. I do promise not to open this gift early...only shake it... a little... Speaking of, one more Christmas story of snooping gone awry.

One year I got a day bed for Christmas. It was back-ordered so my mom took the purchase order and put it in a coffee can with a light bulb. I shook the gift and the light bulb broke. I felt horrible and thought I broke it. That was such a :nailbiting: Christmas! ...sorry if I already told that story, it feels like I have, but can't remember.

Hi Cherryblossum,

everyone was pretty quick off the gun. Sending the presents mid November was discussed originally, so some people might still be sending their presents off. Especially if they are taking their time choosing.

I hope that you don't have to wait too long!

But you still can't look! ;)

I'm pretty good! I won't be peeking, before I'm allowed :angelic:

But I'd just like it to arrive safe and sound (so I can squidge and shake :oops: )

It's packed safe in Santa's sleigh and on its way CB :D..... it's just got a boat/plane/truck or two to take en route to you. :)

I am back to breathing! They lost tracking of my sent package which is now on a country farmers hay truck. On it's way to Jipip Junction. I was afraid the anti-elves were holding it in customs. Next it transfers to a paddle wheel up river!

 

[ms spock]

Oh no Whitney's story!

I feel for you!

I am like a little kid watching for the postie every day. :D

I too wonder if my Kris Kringle will like what I bought.
