Oh boy! Thank you SS!!

I looked out at my mailbox and there was a big package hanging on the flag. Oh boy! I ran (ok, I walked briskly ) to get it and brought in in the house to discover all the little treasures inside. It was like Christmas morning! I received a neato water bottle filled with goodies, reflective thingies and a compass to find my way home, a NiteRider light--way cool!--and reflective stickers which is PERFECT! The postcard was pretty neat too. I'm pleased as punch! Thank you, Secret Sister.

Thanks to a mystery sister in Galveston, TX....
I got a new light that fits my handlebars. WONDERFUL! My other one I had to hold in my hand the couple of times I needed it b/c it didn't fit my bars. I'm VERY excited to try this one out!
And the goodies will keep me going for several long rides.

THANKS AGAIN!
It came the day after my birthday, so kept the fun going!

And a big thank you to my mystery SS from the UK. Unfortunately the jam (?) didn't make it across the Atlantic. And dang it all but it really smelled good!! But the patch kit and the pant leg clips will come in very handy! My package was waiting for me when my sisters and I returned from Paris, and I had been telling them about the board and the SS fun, and then they got to witness it first hand. Perfect timing.

Thanks again, whoever you may be.

I wonder if my ss received her package??

Oh no!!! I'm sorry about the jam! I must not have packaged it up very well. Sorry!

I received a wonderful package this week too! I've been curling up on the couch with some super comfy cozy socks every night this week. And the chocolate disappeared within minutes. And thank you for all the other little treats too! A wonderful surprise!!!

[Possegal]

No need to apologize!! You never know with the mail, not your fault! Was it homemade? It did smell wonderful! The other items are great and will get a lot of use!

I told you those were the most comfortable socks ever

I can’t wait to get in on the next SS group! Sounds like great fun getting something other than bills in the mail!! I would so dearly love to get a new pair of cycling socks. My DH doesn’t understand why I can’t just wear my regular sports socks, but my cycling socks fit so much better and are much more comfortable. Plus, since I am most definately a “Fredwina” when I ride, my socks are my own little way of expressing my fashion sense - I love the colors and designs and they make my feet happy. Well, now that I have dropped a HUGE hint on what to get me in the next SS thread, I will go wash my one little lonely pair of socks and get ready for tomorrow’s ride!

Thanks so much my SS. I was in the middle of doing a really annoying project at work when the mailman delivered my special package from New Zealand.

I have never had any Ground Effect products before and I think they are really cool.

I've been trying to stretch out my outdoor running for awhile before I switch to the boring treadmill inside. The beanie will be such an improvement in keeping my ears warm compared to the baseball cap that I've been wearing. It is so comfy soft too. Yes, you are right it will also be perfect for snowboarding .... and even the cross country skiing that I keep telling myself I have to get back into again.

The little case is a great size for sports. I recently switched to a smaller cell phone and it slides right into one of the pockets. My phone is even orange and black to match the case ... and there's still plenty of room for other essentials.

Thanks again SS (Cheryl)

P.S. I finally got my SS stuff all together today and it's going out tomorrow or Monday. I promise .... don't loose hope my SS.

sj..I had you before as a ss & I couldn't decide what to send you this time I don't live near any snowboarding shops...I thought some Ground Effect stuff wouldn't go amiss!

I hope you get lots of snow this winter for snowboarding

Welcome to the Ground Effect revolution

A big THANK YOU to my Secret Sister! Your package was a much-needed break this afternoon, sandwiched between a history lesson on Henry Knox and the Siege of Boston and an Algebra lesson re: graphing polynomial equations.

Chocolate is THE major food group in our house (for the females anyway), so the truffles were consumed in a flash. The reflective stickers and the lights will certainly get a work-out now that rainy, gray, overcast autumn is here! Getting ready to make some of the tea right now so I can snuggle up and watch the second half of the Colts game.

Thanks for brightening my day!!!
