A careful reader will note there is no "Box 1" listed - that's because Box 1 was three inches larger than the size limit of 108" so it got rejected. I didn't bother to measure it because it didn't look big enough to be an issue. WRONG!! I'll have to find another box & break it up & send them as Box 1 and Box 1A. Of course those were the Christmas decorations.
If you need more ideas, look at the list of treats that nina0113 just posted that were mailed to Bagram in Afghanistan today.
Goodnight!
Are you declaring bankruptcy next week?
That is overwhelming! Their jaws are going to drop!
And then later they are going to have one great party!!
MJY1288 got their Christmas tree today and will mail before Thanksgiving. Our local optometrist benefactor is mailing Mike a check Monday for his expenses.
Are you up to getting the stuff at Circuit City/Best Buy before Thanksgiving or are you in intensive care now?
They are going to have a ball with that karaoke machine.
What a great idea!
