Lori, so glad the box arrived and your very welcomed. I also opened the box I received from you. thanks for the Powerstrike DVD, I did it Friday and about died. I have the other ones and this one seemed much harder. Thanks also for the dark chocolate mints, lip balm and the three books. The bigger book, I hadn't heard of this author and now I can't remember the name but it is a big book over 700 pages. I added them to my box of books to read.

when your box arrived I laughed and said that address looks familiar and then I looked at my giftee and it was the same address. I chuckled to myself. I hope you have a great holiday season and Thanks again!

Hi Rhonda-

I also got that Powerstrike for myself--I didn't even know it existed before you asked for it. It is tough!

On the writers: Sherry gave me the two names and then I added an Elizabeth George. She is not a cozy writer, but an excellent writer of English detective fiction. If you like her, she has many novels. Most interesting, she writes like a Brit, but she is American and lives in London for part of the year. You will swear you are reading someone who is English.

Enjoy!

Lori

I read and liked Elizabeth George years ago. I need to go back to her books.

Lori, if you do not mind, please pm me with any favorite Elizabeth George titles. You may like the British author Michelle Spring.

I received two packages today, both from my Secret Santa! The first one came from Total Fitness DVDs and since I've ordered several things lately, I didn't think anything at first, but then realized "Hey, I haven't ordered anything from Mary recently. I bet this is from my Santa!". I was right It was the Z-Box Fitness DVD from my wish list and a note from Mary saying she was asked to send it to me as a gift.

I also received another package from a far away land with a cryptic note in the card with clues to who my Santa is. Just due to the customs label, I was able to deduce my Santa is from Canada, eh From what I know of this person here on VF, I am pretty sure my Santa is yogapam! In this package she included another DVD set from my wish list, a pair of cat leggings and cat socks The leggings are super soft and I can't wait to try them out. And the DVDs are going to be perfect for some low stress workouts, which I need right now.

Thank you so much Santa for all the wonderful gifts you sent! I hope you have a great holiday season way up there in the Great White North

Yay Stephanie, you guessed right eh!

I’m so glad everything arrived and you are very welcome! I hope you enjoy the dvds and I hope you love the cat leggings. They are my favourite brand, SweetLegs, & I live in them these days!

Wishing you a very happy holiday season from the Great White North!

So I couldn’t wait any longer & opened my gift from fanofladyvols today.

She sent me a very pretty warm winter hat & cosy gloves that are perfect for my winter walks. Getting outside daily is my sanity saver! I also received lovely lavender soap & a lotion bar.....and.....some of my favourite Trader Joe’s items! I love that store & always stop in when we drive to WA state, but that’s not happening this year.

Thank you very much Linda!

I figured our lovely VF elf had a hand in it as she knows how much I love Trader Joe’s.

Guilty!

Bumping the thread in case anyone else has received their package and wants to post.
