You are a wonder! I let them know that you will be mailing an additional 10th packages and to expect it around, perhaps just after, Christmas.

My mother had a theory (a rationalization for her tardy ways) that late mailed packages made it because they passed over the piles of stacked up boxes already mailed.

I’m going to send one more package tomorrow to FOB Joyce with the extra cocoa, but found that I had picked up a couple sugar free boxes instead of the regular cocoa yesterday at the local supermarket. That wouldn’t have been a problem except for some insane reason there are only 8 envelops in a box, and so I’m 4 short...

Your dedication is all that kept me from breaking down and gnashing my teeth and wailing...

LOL!

Happy Holidays, what? :-)

Grumble, grumble.

Last package until next year!!

Today I mailed two boxes .. One 12X12 and one Medium Flat rate box. I picked up enough extra filler to fill the medium size box. LOL

Box #1 .. 12X12:
40 packages hot chocolate mix
40 individual packages Spiced Apple Cider drink mix
30 candy canes
12 1.4oz bags cornnuts (mixed flavors)
3 pkgs snowman Peeps (9 per pkg)

Box #2 ...medium flat rate box:
24 Nature Valley Granola Bars (Sweet and Salty Nut)
48 .8oz bags cornnuts ... 24 ranch; 24 barbecue

I tried to get a Christmas card in each box ... I’m sure I missed a couple. I sent 3 in these two boxes.

I sent a few extra candy canes ... I hope they make it there without breaking.

Merry Christmas.
