Tina, maybe you did get the goat. I think goats wear bells sometimes.

Tina yes I think goats do wear bells!

I LOVE this scene with Brennen and Gabby in the Hallmark "All of my Heart" movies

My package is mailed. I thought of giving you all the tracking number BUT then that would give it away
Tina has it.

Wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving

Tina, what a surprise to find your gift hiding in your room. Are you planning a zoom opening this year?

Valerie, cows wear bells (cowbell) I don't think goats wear bells (goatbell)

I bet next year, if our memories hold out, everyone gets a bell in their package.

The package I sent is still in limbo. If it isn't delivered by the first I will contact the post office. It's not often but I have had packages go astray before. Since the package is insured for $100 if it doesn't arrive, I will submit a claim and split the money with my elf. Dang post office.

Good morning!

Today is the mailing deadline but I'm pretty sure that all packages are now in the hands of the USPS or will be today....I hope they take good care of all those packages!

Please post when you receive so I can mark you on my list that I've checked way way more than twice!

Chriss, I'll start crossing my fingers that yours is just taking the scenic route

Hmmmmmm a zoom opening again.... sounds like a plan! If you all would like to participate in a zoom opening like last year just let me know and I'll send you the link just before opening day if that's ok?

Our son and his family came yesterday and then our daughter and then all her kiddos so my house was full of love yesterday and did I ever need it! DS is tall and he dusted the whole house even picture frames high on the walls and the ceiling fans that take us using a step stool. Everything is shiny and bright this morning ❤

Now the countdown till packages arrive and opening day!

Tina can I please borrow your Son, I have some high dusting that needs to be done. Glad you got some love yesterday.

Hopefully the last few gifts will arrive in the next few days. Chriss praying your package gets to your elf soon. Oh the Post Office.

"The Postal Service delivers 513 million pieces of mail per week, so it is highly efficient. It has also proven to be really good at responding to changes in the culture and in meeting the needs of the country." per the public affairs council! Who are they?

Chriss Goats wear bells primarily for protection, so farmers can find them easier and have more information about the flock. It lets the farmer know where the goat or sheep is even if it's out of sight, and it can help protect them by alerting the herding dog it's in danger.

Well caregiver I hired specifically for today did not show up so guess I am on my own. Saved me $100.

Zoom meeting sounds wonderful!

Tina- can I borrow your son too. I need dusting done on high areas too.

I think I may be getting a package today. The usps says I am getting a package that I didn't expect, so I will go get it soon as it is delivered.

[Marilynsgrammy]

Valerie, if I get you as an elf next year you will receive a belled goat. Not sure who the public affairs council is but I don't like them. I did leave a message with my local post office. It's a very small post office and the postmaster is pretty good.

Tina, don't send your son here, I like my dust.

Vinae, woo hoo, a package, how fun. Hope you hear bells.

You all have a fun day, I'm going to tackle this binding.

[gershwin64]

LOL I'll let him know he's in high demand, too funny.

Mail tends to slow down right about this time every year and I noticed they don't have 2 day anymore it says 3 or 4 now. But at this time of year translates to 5 to 7 LOL that's ok, plenty of time for all to receive.

You all have a great Thanksgiving Eve, I've got 2 clean doggies so they're all ready to play with grands which I really think they think are their litter mates LOL my dogs get so down in the dumps after the grands leave. Rosie cries real tears, they roll down her face. Duncan will just sleep and mope. My dogs are funny.

I probably won't make it here tomorrow

Called the postmaster for our post office this morning. She called back and said the package I sent is in a container with many other packages (basically it has friends and this isn't happening to just me) If we don't see movement by Monday she will call and find out what is up.

UGH,
chriss
