Hi Marcy, nothing yet. Will check the Post a Office Monday.
Might want to check your tracking number. It's the holidays and things are so slow.
Are packages usually go through the Temple, TX post office, and sometimes they get stuck there for a few days.

There has been a big package issue in our community due to packages being left at the wrong address, stolen, opened, used, etc. In the online discussion one guy, whom I know personally explained it this way: If we mail priority or overnight, the package quickly is delivered by or before the expected delivery date. HOWEVER,if you mail first class, etc. Your package goes into the system, Fed Ex Smart Post, then a BULK MAIL CENTER. When it reaches the BMC it is marked as delivered, however it was not delivered to your recipient or customer, just to the BMC. Then it can take from one to three more days for it to eventually reach its destination. That might explain why there has been so much confusion recently. Tracking # are nice to have, but can also be misleading.

Hi Mary,
It looks like your package is going to be a little late. I don't know what happened!! I sent it out on Monday morning and it should have gotten to you on Thursday. I checked Thursday-no update. I checked Friday-no update. I checked this morning and it said the package had been delayed, UGH!! According to the tracking number it IS in Texas which I suppose is a good thing because that is of course where you are. I am so sorry! I'm really getting stressed over this! Please let me know when you get it so I can stop worrying
Hopefully it will get to you today or at least by Monday.
I just checked the tracking number again and it says that it should be delivered today. Please let me know when you get it.
I do hope that you like your goodies,
hugs,
Marcy

Thanks Shannon. How are your children? How is Emi? Is your leg/foot doing any better?

Everyone is still sick! We have a humidifier with essential oils in the bedroom constantly going to help Emi breathe. It is definitely affecting her appetite, which is dressing, since she gained two pound in a month and we were so excited... I am praying she doesn't lose too much!!! The other children all have colds... And now my hubby is complaining he is feeling rough. As for my foot... errrrrr!!!!!!!!!! It hurts!!!!! They say it would have been better if I had ruptured it and needed surgery, or if I had broken it... That tears and sprains take a lot longer to heal. I guess I remember learning that, but hearing it wasn't nice ;) One of the hardest parts is that when I wear my boot, I am not suppose to carry Emi. Due to what I did, they gave me a boot with a curved bottom... but it makes me unsteady, so I can only wear it when Brad is home :( This means it will probably take me longer to heal. Glad it is "winter" and not summer as the boot is heavy and hot! All in all, though, God is good! He will see us through this valley, as He always does!

Shannon - So sorry to hear about all the troubles. I am going shopping today so I will get you some special stuff to put in your stocking. Progress report: I am making the stocking and it is half done. I have a little bit of shopping to do then I can wrap and send. I will probably send the package out next week. Take care of yourself.

It is very difficult to get well this year. I had a major allergy erruption. I went to the doctor thinking it was much worse. She said it will get better. No meds, except cough syrup and nasal spray. I know from experience about pulling and ripping and stretching things that are best left their normal way. It does take forever to get well. You have youth on your side though. I sure hope Emi gets better soon.

Hey Karen,
I got your stocking in the mail today and told my husband to put it under the tree. I will post photos when I open it but I will not be back at my house until the night of the 11th so it will more than likely be the 12th before I get to open it... did you get yours yet?
Farmgirl Hugs,

Marcy,
Our PO only opened 8-10 on Sat morning, and they usual get their packages about 11.
Stopped today and have yellow package notice in my PO Box-- I'll check tomorrow to see if it's our stocking #128516;

Julie, I thought Christmas had arrived early when I opened your beautiful lace stocking over-flowing with goodies....and, I do mean overflowing!!!! The stocking will definitely be hanging for Santa to fill! You made the most wonderful choices ever: 3 balls of purple yarn (my fav color), a mini knitter....have seen these but did not have one, honey from your neighborhood (I love honey....delish), a tin of tea (I love that brand and flavor), 2 pairs of earrings (angels & "Let it Snow"....perfect for upstate NY, goat's milk lotion (love that brand as well), bag of bath tea, peppermint soap and scrubbie....soap smellls good enough to eat, 2 potholders. a beautiful teal washcloth, purse tissue holder, adorable trivets, cookbook (that grilled okra sounds wonderful), and a big book entitled "When Treetops Glisten." I love Tricia Goyer. And, the bag that the bath bomb was in is beautiful. I love everything!!!!!! I know you made many of the items...you are so talented. You did way too much. But, I appreciate everything and will enjoy using every item in the stocking. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Merry Christmas and Farmgirl Hugs,
Portia
Wishing for the country life! |

My Christmas Socking is out of this world lovely. So many goodies. The pixies are just precious and will be added to my currant collection just beautifully. Love the Santa and Mrs Clause. A sweet pin cushion. A snowman ornament, oh so useful jar lids. I love them. Beautiful dish cloths I love the colors and the cupcake one is so sweet looking. Yummy chocolates that have been spoken for from my kids .....yikes! A too cute finger towel embellished with a snowman. Cute bracelet. A lovely vintage looking tea candle. Cute bell earrings. The candle smells so good and the vintage trailer ornament I love! The stocking is so cute, it's hung and looking beautiful. Thank you so much for such a sweet gift. Merry Christmas.

I did include a card in yours but I too have left some out many times. No worries about it. I am ready to hang it once it arrives.
Grace....yes I might have to hide it from you both.....yikes! Also had to buy a cute camper stocking because of your post a few days back but I did not get the flamingo one but it's cute none the less. Can't wait for it to arrive.
Mary....I love the camper ornament, it fits perfect with a few more that I have.
