I came home to the best ever package from ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
alorarose from the annual Secret Santa that ikel89 runs.
First of all, thank you both for answering my frantic emails. It wasn't you, at all. We got a brand new mailman about a month ago. I am not a fan. I ordered a package from eBay in early November, and it was from Italy. I knew it would take a long time to get to me because international and all, so I didn't think much of it. About three weeks ago, the seller on eBay messaged me to tell me I needed to get the package from the post office because it had been there for several weeks and was on the verge of being sent back to Italy. New mailman DID NOT bother to deliver my package nor did he bother to put one of those slips in our mailbox to tell me I had to go to the post office to sign for the package like they're supposed to.
Since this is a "secret" worldwide Santa, I was worried about the same thing happening. I didn't care if it ended up in the post office, I would just drive and go get it, I was just worried it came and was sitting in the post office and I had no idea it was there nor would I have known how long it had been there [if it was there]. And since we're leaving on the 28th for our next adventure, I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything from my negligent mailman. So thank you both again, for dealing with my anxiety.
Onto the goodies:
Here's the letter fromalorarose that came with the package, I absolutely loved the rainbow pens. Also, there's no such thing as TOO MUCH unicorn when it comes to me, so no worries ;)
[also that's the stuffed Ditto that J got me for the 2nd night of Hannukkah, so far it has not brought me luck for pumpkaboo shiny breeding in Pokemon Shield]
LOOK AT ALL THE AMAZING STICKERS, I seriously want to just write more Christmas/Holiday cards even though I sent all of them already just so I can use those stickers on the envelopes!! I absolutely love them :) Stickers are one of my weird guilty pleasures, thank for indulging ;)
And washi tape... I LOVE ME SOME WASHI TAPE, and it is so cute. I also just got a new container for an attempt to organize my washi tape collection, which has seriously expanded this year, and I am a bit too excited about organized all my washi tape in ROY G BIV order.
I send cards all year for every single holiday to my MIL, and she has grown to expect washi tape and stickers on them, so I'm excited to have even more stickers and washi tape to surprise her with ;)
Also, these are my favorite pens in the entire world, I use them for everything... ADHD induced sketching/drawing at teacher training, addressing envelopes, writing what time kiddos arrive/leave/are absent in my classroom planner, lesson-planning on whatever random paper I can find in my house or my Alice in Wonderland planner, Justin steals them to grade his papers... they are my everything. And unicorn colors are BEYOND AWESOME.
Meet next year's planning journal :) I love it.
And thank you for the ornaments. One is already on the tree, as you can see, next to a reindeer I made with my kiddos last year. The other will be on the tree as soon as I find a picture of Hammy to go in it [Sorry Justin, I love Hammy more than you]
Thank you so much for the amazing packagealorarose [and of course to ikel89 for organizing another year of surprises :)] I hope you have a wonderful Christmas/New Years, and I love absolutely everything.
