Hoping to see more post that they received their box... Looks like 7 more people to let us know...

Betty... Unless you pay for express or overnight, what they tell you as a delivery date is not actual.. It could fall a day early to a day or more later. Priority dates are not "guaranteed" dates.

I would feel like I was eating before everyone at the table had been served if I opened tomorrow, knowing all the packages hadn't been received. I'll probably wait to open my SSSS, if that won't offend anyone!

We shouldn't make any decisions without Nickilee, as she is the hostess with the mostess...

but my own personal opinion is it is not fair to everyone who has been looking forward to the opening to wait. In past years, not everyone is able to post pics and join in on the opening ceremony at the approiate time, although we all try. My stockings have not always been on time, due to the International post, it has not bothered me, I have always enjoyed seeing everyone's stockings and it lets me do a bit of detective work Wink LOL I will also say that I have never been upset or disappointed after the wait. it builds excitement for me and always gave me something to look forward to Smile

Hi Ladies,

I have just spent some time tracking down all the missing packages (yes, they have all been mailed) and thought I would update you. THANK YOU all for putting confirmation numbers on your package - sure makes things a lot easier Big Grin

According to the tally we have 6 ladies who have yet to recive their stocking so in lieu of that, I would like to request everyone to wait until all packages have been received so we can open them up together.... Hopefully that will be Monday evening - a perfect time as it will be Christmas Eve. I feel bad for anyone who is stilling waiting but I assure you it's not because they havent' been mailed.

These 6 stockings still are still out:
(Please, if you have received your stocking and just haven't had the time to let me know, do so ASAP)

Confirmation Tracking results:

*Margie / says it was delivered today
*LuvthoseQuilts / Tracking MIA in Michigan
*Heartmania / Says it was delivered to NH

These 3 are in Illinois - Due to major snowstorms there have been significant delays:

*Lilmommie
*Sister Sue
*LindaJ52

So ladies, I hope you can hold on to the excitement of opening up your stockings for a bit longer. If you are going to be traveling or won't be around go ahead and open them tomorrow evening. If you do please, post pictures and let us all know who your SSSS was. Otherwise join us when we wait until everyone has received their stocking....I will be sure to let you know when that is.

My box is under my little tree and I guess there are no juumping beans or voices inside as it is just sitting there patiently waiting for me to rip into it.


Big Grin

Nickilee that is, so nice of you to postpone the grand opening. I am not upset about my stocking being late, things happen. I am very glad that my stocking was received I was worried about that due to the bad weather.

If anyone needs to open their stocking on Sunday, because of family plans on Monday, I am fine with that. I did not receive my stocking yet, but did plan to be with Patty J on Sunday to watch her open her stocking. What ever works for anyone, works for me. Hope everyone has a great holiday. Nicki, I will let you know when I receive my stocking. Thanks for the update. Sue

The stocking that I sent has already been received Smile . The USPS is delivering TODAY, yes on Sunday here. Not sure if that is happening in other places, but I saw the truck down at the boxes and going up to houses too! There is still hope for on time delivery for our last bunch of stockings.

Hi all, I am at my daughter,s in indianapolis. When we left, I did not have my package and I thought it would have arrived or I would have had it shipped to her address. So it will be sitting at the post office till I get home next week. Sorry I will not be in on the big reveal. W
At least not this year, but better late than never. So have fun and enjoy.

Merry Christmas

Mary

I may not be able to be here tomorrow night, depends on what time we open the stockings and what time my son is going to go to church. Pat
In any case I'm going to wait for Sister Sue to get her stocking and we will open them together. Pat

Okay, I just checked USPS Tracking on my package. I wanted to see if it had made it from Forest Park (about 65 miles from here) down to the post office in Clifton. It's not in Clifton. It's at a USPS sorting station in Hazelwood, MO as of 7:54am. Talk about weird. Why on earth would the sorting station 65 miles from here send it over 200 miles to Missouri. I'll check later, but I don't think my package will be showing up here today. Please go ahead and open your packages if everyone else gets theirs. I'm sure mine will eventually get here. It probably just wanted to do some holiday travelling.
