Just a picture for size reference! Yes, that's my entire stovetop covered by this giant box!

 
@ Yay! Now I can stop obsessively refreshing the tracking. I have been so distracted at work wanting to know if it was delivered! And I did not try to be sneaky! The USPS lied and said it would be delivered on wednesday! Yesterday the tracking said it was In springfield mass so I panicked until I googled and saw that is 2 hrs ish from you and assumed that is the hub! Cant wait to see what you think!

 
Now that all the packages should have gone out by today, I can safely talk about mine without being much of a spoiler. ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I am going to warn my FGC that my gifts aren't wrapped nearly as prettily as most of these others. This is because the kids at work who helped me make your craft also wanted to help wrap! So...things are just kind of chilling in some tissue paper...but it was done with love and they were so proud! lol.

And also, I had 2 things for you (a snack and an item) that I totally forgot to put in the box. D'OH. So, you'll probably get a snack and the item in the mail at a later date, or something! Forgive my forgetfulness!

I suck at wrapping so I use a lot of tissue paper and the "roll it up and twist the ends like candy" method.  That's super sweet that the kids at your work helped you wrap.  I love that you involve them in your gifts.  I'm sure your FGC will love it!

Ha, well we are always looking for new crafts and things to do, and they helped me make cards for my penpals and they really got excited about that (being kids with special needs in a facility, they don't get much opportunity to do things for others, so when they do, they feel so good, it's so sweet) and so I figured they'd get excited about this, too! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> And they did! "Presents in the mail?? Yay!!"

My FGC is a pretty lovely person, so I'm sure she'll appreciate the love they put into it, even if it isn't as fancy as some of the other gifts!

 
Work schmerk! Do you really need to work today? Hahahaha
The hard part is that I make my own hours for my research.  I have to write myself a schedule or I would just stay home all the time.  I'm such a procrastinator without a schedule.  Luckily my research involves a lot of down time so I can keep up on reveals during the day!!  

 
I got a message from a Fairy on Saturday that my package is on it's way! I'm so excited! My mail was already delivered today, so I hope tomorrow is the day. I can't wait! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

To my FGC: please, please, please let me know that you received my package ok.

Yup, thats how I pretty much wrap everything.

 
Im so glad for reveals today! I need a dose of happy. I had a pretty crappy day. This morning instead of going to sleep when the hubby came home from work I had to deal with a huge mess in the kitchen. Our sink got clogged and on top of that one of the pipes was leaking so I had water coming out of the top and bottom of the sink. Poor hubby had to pick up the spare mop and help me mop out the water. About half an hour and a few broken nails later it was under control. It was a huge disaster and we didnt get much sleep, so  thankful its fixed now.
