LOIS, you are right! Thanks for reminding us - the mail is so much slower since Covid hit. I think I will be mailing early! And I believe I have about everything I want for my box. Now to double check, wrap, and it will be ready to go! I love this time of year! And I love our Secret Santa Swap!

Yes, this year I think mailing early is in order. I ordered a pattern over a week ago and it has not arrived. The girl said her patterns have been taking 2 - 3 weeks to arrive. It's no bigger than a letter! She unfortunately didn't get tracking so hope it's just COVID slowing things down.
I may get a few more things before sealing the box. I don't know my elf well so a bit harder this year. Making me use my brain!

Valerie, you are so right! We ordered supplies to repair our trailer and itโs been shipped by FedEx and so far taking 10 days And counting. Fed Ex used to hype overnight delivery.
But I am almost ready to pack my box! One more little thing.

I was able to put my kit together and get it wrapped. Now to go get a flat rate box. Oops, gave it away, If you get a flat rate box soon it could be from me.
I love this swap.

I am ready to box up my Elfs box. I need to get one more thing done and then all of it goes in box.
Does anybody have an idea when we should ship out. Since mail is so slow. I am going to send mine early
I was just wondering how early.

KATY - I believe Mary set Nov 20th as the very last day to mail. Check her opening post for details, but I'm almost certain that's what she said. But mailing even earlier is probably a smart idea. It seems mail and all kinds of shipping is delayed this year.
MY package is almost ready to go, too. I thought of one more little thing I want to do first. Then, it's package time!

I will put mine together this weekend and mail on Monday.
Putting a kit together took some thought and was a lot of fun
