I'm going shopping on Sunday!! Super super excited!  Finally got paid so I can do things!!
Yea!!!  I have already spent all of mine and am now just trying to sit on my hands to keep them from shopping online.  I will be good FGM, but I might not be very good at it!  :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> If not for my sub boxes, my mailman would think I had died since my number of deliveries has dropped off significantly!  

 
FGC ended up with so many things that ended up being oddly shaped.. Hope this doesn't look like a box of fun colored tampons!!

Ack! Fun-colored tampons was pretty much exactly what the Santa package I sent out looked like! This assortment doesn't, though. You have varied sizes and shapes. It just looks *fun*!
ETA: @ nailed it. Candy!

It's so pretty and summery and colorful!  I just keep going back to look at it.  Great job!

I could actually get excited about tampons if they came looking like that!   ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I went to Christmas crackers, but I can see super-fancy candy there, too! Looks great!

I'm still waiting for the materials for the craft I want to include, but beauty shopping is done. May have a few stash items to add in, but I'm hoping to be done next weekend. I have a work trip to OK and Chicago, then to St. Louis the last 2 weeks in June and don't want to be racing to get done over 4th of July weekend, or it will end up looking like the dog's dinner!

 
Haha thanks guys! I was definitely going for candy so I'm glad you saw that too -- but tampons were what I was afraid that ya'll been seeing. FGC -- do you want me to just ship this to you now?!!?

 
To my FGM if you want to ship it early feel free to!  If you would prefer to wait I am ok with that too.  I only have to keep myself distracted from shopping for another 30 days before the shipping period for the gifts opens haha.

I have the craft to keep me busy and I have my wrapping goodies, but I like being able to see it all and decide what I can add (or subtract!)

 
To my FGM:  If you would like to ship early, please feel free, but be aware I have *zero* patience when it comes to unwrapping presents, so it will *not* wait for the official reveal window!

To my FGC:  I still have some things on order, so it doesn't look like there's any way mine will be going out early.  

 
Ok by some miracle I have spent exactly $25 (not counting stash shopping, swaps, points, gwps, and gift cards)! I still have 1 last thing I want to get with my Ulta points and my homemade project.

My FGM can feel free to ship whenever she wants. I will be shipping my box early as well but not for another week or 2.

 
As long as we're posting shipping updates/messages....

My darling FGC, all of your orders and major purchases have been made, and my stash has been thoroughly raided.  I'm just waiting on the books, materials for a craft, and some filler snack/goodie purchases.  That being said, it will probably be closer to the shipping window when I mail... because I need to make sure everything is PERFECT.

My sweet, wonderful FGM!  You can send it whenever.  Now is fine. Early July would actually be better, as my hubby has to leave for a corporate training thingy for several weeks and my life will be easier when I don't have to explain away a box o' goodies.  Muahaha!!! I'll stash the box, take the kids out for Happy Meals so they won't dime me out when Daddy calls later ("Mommy got another box delivered!  I think there's makeup inside!"  Thanks, kid), and wait for them to go to bed before I turn on some music, pour a glass of wine, and RIP INTO THE GOODIES.  Yeah, it'll be like that.

 
Can I tell you all a funny husband/makeup-y story?  

So Sunday my husband and I went to Target.  I had to get more makeup remover wipes.  I usually put away groceries but for whatever reason my husband did this week.  I was not able to find the makeup wipes anywhere!  I got mad because I had assumed the bagger had not bagged them.  

Today when I was rooting around in my FREEZER what did I find?  The makeup wipes!  I had to laugh.  I wonder what he thought they were that they needed to be frozen?!

 
Yay, I just got a shipping notice!  Still waiting on shipping for other things, though.

In June news, ugh, the guys at work are going to both be gone the week after next!  Our boss has dubbed it Girl Power week because we'll be an all-female crew.  One guy has some sort of week-long language intensive course, and the other guy is going to Costa Rica for two weeks.  I'm already dreading it.  

 
Dear FGM --  feel free to ship when you want. I'm travelling a lot for work though from make-up e through mid-July.  So it may be a few days from when it's delivered until I'm actually home to open it.  But it will be safe inside waiting for me, because my husband can get it.

Lol!! That is hilarious!!
 
I have several things for my FGC, but am waiting to make a few purchases when I go to the nearest town that has an Ulta. So indecisive because I want to get her all the things!

Also, the profile views feature is really hindering my stalking...so of course, I've been looking at several profiles from this thread each day, to hopefully throw her off my scent. ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
