I believe I scared my mail man.
I believe I scared my mail man yesterday! You see I went down to the post office this morning to mail a few things, and my mail carrier started walking up to the desk with some letters in his hand, and a package! I asked him "is that for me? I'm expecting 2 more packages." He replied with "Are you expecting anything from New York?" me "noo...." thinking knit picks ships from Ohio, and Amazon, well that's going to be a few more days! When I got back out to the van I could hardly wait till I got home. I opened up the envelope and you wouldn't believe this, but other SSS swappers? Remember that picture Adelle posted last week? This one? Yes! Adelle was my pal! Check it out! All those lovely goodies are in my living room now! housha!

Look at all those lovelies all unwrapped! Lets go from Left to right this time, A super cute box of note cards, awesome pens, a really cool tablet. I love the colors of these three! To mixes that I can't wait to try! A Cool lemonade Cheesecake mix and a taco soup mix. hmmm...should I make these while Mike is home on break and share with him? heheee, they look so GOOD! Adelle also included some post-it picture paper. These look like they are going to be fun to play with, I'm already thinking up ways to use them! Do you see that sock? Look at that SOCK! WOW!

Awesome! Your postman should love you and bring you more packages and then he would have nothing to fear.

Love the sock! You'd better get cracking on the second so you don't end up with one cold toe :-) Keep watching the mailbox, you never know what might show up :-D

You are so funny--I am also a mail man tackler and sometimes stalker! Love those 'hippy crunchy' socks.
I think I'm going to take the Fair isle class at Stitch you art out this fall...must add new techniques!
