    as it seems, mine is lost along the way

    Mine worst calculations are: it takes them 2 days to send the gift from my post office to the one in our capital city, and perhaps 2 more from that office to air station, and I'll add 2 more till they send it over ocean. And I really don't think that it needs more than 8 days for that packet to somehow comes to it's receiver... All together it's 2 weeks.

    Or is it possible for gift to travel from Europe to America more than 20 days?
    For the sake of my SS I surely hope so.

    iFKA!!! It is not lost!!!! Your gift arrived yesterday, believe it or not! I was sooooooo excited!!! Thanks so much for all the beautiful red things -the lip gloss, the yogurt & cereal bar and especially the heart and the hand made calendar! You are right - it IS time to ride! Thank you thank you thank you!!!

    Your handwriting is BEAUTIFUL -thank you so much for the wonderful note and the story behind the heart. I don't even want to throw away your envelope - I've never gotten anything from Croatia before.

    Ah... what a relief...
    I already decided what to sent you again, but I was waiting for my salary to come. I'm so happy you liked it
    If you ever decide to visit Europa feel free to let me know, we have enough place for guests in our home or we could arrange so you could go biking with us through Croatia
    p.s. I can't believe you like my handwriting, everyone else are saying it's unreadable...

    It arrived!
    Well - it arrived sometime this week. We were away all week - skiing in Colorado - and just got back today. The box was waiting on our front porch -and it was the first thing I dove into! Forget that pile of bills - my Secret Sister package arrived! Yay!
    Thank you Secret Sister in Washington...Colby? Fun stuff - Burt's Bees lipbalm, socks, a neat red waterbottle (that will be great on the kayak) filled with lots of yummy treats, and a blizzard of little hearts with skiing and biking themes!
    Thank you!!

    Guilty, Regina. Sorry it was so late, I was buried at work for what seemed to be all of February and most of March.

    I was worried about the ski-themed stuff hoping I didn't misread your posts. WHEW!!

    Thank you Secret Sister!

    This week has been No Fun At All, and getting a package of goodies (instead of more work) in my door was just what I needed.

    Love the cookies, I'll haul the book along when we ride the Katy Trail, Shot Blocs are always handy, and I'll wear the Team Estrogen tatoo on RAGBRAI this year. Heck, I even loved the happy Smiley Face paper the book was wrapped in!

    Thanks again,

    thank you ss

    wow, rotten day, told to restructure my thesis ... ugh...had a headache... and then DH rang to say a parcel had arrived. I said maybe it's from my ss and he said "yes, i think it is"... did i detect a note of jealousy

    thank you light... it really made my day. LOVE the go-fast red socks , love redskins (one of my favourite lollies!), loved the candle and the butterfly..... and the photo frame... this will make you laugh.. i pulled out the little blocks and i had "HAVE T" and i'm thinking... that's weird, is it supposed to be "have a nice day" or something ha ha ha... took me a couple of minutes to realise it was theav ... that really made my day!

    thanks so much, the gifts are wonderful and cheered me up no end

    i hope you're feeling a bit better. take it easy.
