    Aggie_Ama! Thank you soooooo much!

    Those pretty poison socks are amazing! I LOVE pink and black (they'll go nicely with my new road bike when I finally get her) You hit the nail on the head with the sweatband. It's gets above 40 C (about 110 F I think) here in summer... Which starts next month and the humidity is the killer.

    I love the stationary too! All my futer secret sisters will get their little notes on the cards until they run out. :P

    As for the duck... I've got a disco on my work desk! BF is constantly getting up me because I lose my keys! I'm sure ducky will help me find him.

    (I've got the Rubber ducky song in my head now!)

    *sing* Rubber ducky your the one!
    You make bathtime so much fun!! Rubber ducky I'm totally fond of YOU Whoop-whoop-dee-ddooo



    I dunno what's scarier... the fact I've got the song in my head or the fact I still remember the words almost 20 years after seeing for the first time on Sesame st....

    Oh, Secret Sister! I had such a rotten day and there was a package for me! You are clearly a psychic secret sister, because I wanted those exact daisy socks and those bicycle Christmas cards, and I am not making that up! I also love the postcard and the bottle opener, and I haven't tried Sport Beans so I am taking them on my next ride.

    Thank so much! It totally made my day.

    You are very welcome! I was so excited when I saw your new bike because I knew everything would go great. Glad it made it down there.

    Thank you Secret Sister

    What a treat! I was delighted to get my package a few days ago, and apologize for the delay in posting (haven't had much Net time til tonight). Thank you secret sister!

    I loved the clever surprise to open up the socks, and I will be wearing the smartwool ones for my predicted-to-be-very-cold first duathlon this weekend, and the sport beans will be handy also. I also loved the fleece throw, perfect for our cold nights, and all the other assorted goodies. The package really made my day!

    Thank you again! I hope your SS is as kind!

    Basically each you PM your name and postal address (as well as whatever information is required according to the theme) to the person organising for the month... a few weeks later you'll get a PM back with the name and address of someone else. (they could be from ANY part of the world!!) You have to go out and buy them a present which includes the themed item and post it to them. Trying to remain "Secret"


    Go to this thread about November's SS.

    Aggie_Ama is the person to PM this month. But read the above thread to decide if you're going to participate

    My October SS package was dropped off at the post office today. I swear I carried that thing around with me for 3 days trying to get there. Why do post offices have to be open the exact hours that I am supposed to be at work? hello? inconvenient?

    I'm going to brag here. We have one post office that is next to the airport. it opens at 6am and closes at 11. it is open saturday and sunday. It is the "main" post office. The only problem is they are closed on holidays, including holidays on saturdays and sundays. It is always a bitter disappointment to drive up to that PO and then remember it's columbus day or something.
    and you can even mail CHICKENS from there!

    To whom have you mailed chickens?
    I am not entirely sure that is a good thing, for the people involved, let alone the chickens...


    But yes, I have far fewer quibbles with the postal system these days. We have one that is self service 24 hrs a day, and open decent hours etc. And we even got our passports there last year.

    Our last "batch" of chickens (25 layers, 25 broilers) came in the mail! I ordered them from Murray McMurray Hatchery. I can't describe how nice it is to ride home from the post office with a box full of little peepers! They are so cute when they are young.

    The birdies came on a Sunday, no less... and the main post office called us to pick them up so the little critters wouldn't sit there overnight. Now THAT'S service!

    If only they would do that with your SS packages, too!
