Dar, is it you??

**mtbdarby** · 01-15-2007, 07:12 AM

Jeannie - yup, it's me! Glad you liked it - it was hard to have the fudge sitting there, just looking at me

, but I resisted

Don't lose faith. I don't have an excuse like BMO3, but I've been incredibly busy at work this month - I just haven't had the time to go to the store I want to go to. I have something in mind that is perfect!

It's still January and I know I'll get to it soon!

For the past few days, I've been rather sick having been the recipient of the intestinal virus going around the country. Then I get back to work yesterday after a rather awful weekend and have to do overtime. Today wasn't much better as we got slammed all day in radiology. I get home tonight and find a nice package waiting on my doorstep.

I really needed a pick me up, so I waited to open it up until the house was still and I'm all comfy in my jammies with some nice, soft music on.

What a wonderful assortment of biking goodies. I am totally overwhelmed this month. I just sat here speechless for quite a while.

My January SS went out of her way to stay anonymous too. But there are somethings that can't be hidden. Like the love and friendship between two sisters. Thank you Jen (BMo3) for putting the smile back on my face, today and everyday. You have been a true inspiration and I'm so fortunate to have you in my life.

Hugs and kisses sis!! And big hugs to that fantastic hubby and those kids of yours as well.

X - hope you're feeling better girl. And I know what you mean...

I got home last night to a HUGE box from my SS! I wish I had a digital camera so you could see it but here's what was in it:

A nice wicker basket (no Lisa, you can not have it for your bike

) full of goodies wrapped in celophane and white ribbon - did I feel special or what?
Inside was a chocolate lovers dream: 3 gormet chocolate candy bars and a tin of bit size bitter sweet chocolate, 2 canisters of dark chocolate cocoa, lip balm, cool socks, and a book with my sons name on it (you've been paying attention!) about Franklin learning to ride a bike! He was in heaven! And a cute bike notecard apologizing for the temptations while on my diet

Thank you SO much SS! Blue Tree or Snap, is it one of you two??

Har har har, very funny!!

... do not loose hope, your secret sister procrastinates and is very disorganised, I have no excuse like Bmomo'3.

I hope you like the gifts.

I was a good girl and sent my SS package off today.

I feel so virtuous!

It's not even the end of the month.

So, SS, it will be there as soon as the mailman delivers it.

If Texas ever thaws I will finish shopping.

I know what I want to get, I just can't leave the house!!

**mtkitchn** · 01-17-2007, 02:30 PM

My SS's package is put together and heading for the Post Office tomorrow. It has a long journey but should make it before the end of January!

**margo49** · 01-18-2007, 11:23 PM

Heading off to the post now
My ss sure will think we are twin sisters and telepathic too when she re-reads this thread when she gets it.
I couldn't believe my eyes!

Came home for lunch and had a wonderful package from my ss. Everything is just perfect. She sent a bunch of different flavored hot chocolate, yum, Smartwool headband, TE post its and great pair of Lin socks with a pink sprocket on them. I've been eyeing them, on the featured products page, this week and are just what I wanted! Thank you so much. Your thoughtfulness is really appreciated! So, Salsabike are you my SS??

To my SS your package will be going out this weekend. There's just one more thing I want to get for it. Thanks for being patient with me....

Thanks to my Utah January Secret Sister! What a joy it was to open that box and find all the goodies. For all of you out there, I'm guessing maybe Sulis or Yellow (maybe there's another Utah TE girl out there?) sent me a wonderful polar water bottle, arm warmers (yahoo), you can never have too many arm warmers; defeet woolie boolie socks (my absolute favorite and warmest socks yet); luna bars. Wow, what a stash of great things! It is cold here, I can sure use all this wonderful stuff.

A huge hug to my SS - Laura. As my mom would say, you done good! I was exhausted when I left work today (why do four day weeks take so much out of you?) and was thinking of all I had to do given I have to work my other job tomorrow when I opened my mailbox and found a festive envelope with my name on it! Needless to say my energy level picked up some and a smile consumed my face. I rushed into the house, let the dogs out and opened my package, with kitten help of course. Inside, I found simply wonderful gifts - socks, hand warmers, sports beans and shot bloks (I've read about these but have not been able to find them - I'm excited

) Thanks again Laura, I'm looking forward to finally having warm hands when I ride on cold days and toasty toes
