I deserve a cookie!

With everything that has been going on, I haven't had the chance to share my "personal growth" opportunity. LOL

Last week I got an email from Paul telling me that an Amazon.com package would be arriving. He said that it would have one of my Christmas presents in it and I was NOT allowed to open it.

A little later that same day I received another email from Paul banning me from Amazon.com. Apparently, whatever he got me has "also buy" stuff attached to it and he's concerned that if I go to Amazon, they will show me enough hints that I'd be able to figure out what he bought me.

The package arrived last Friday while Kendra was home. I handed it directly to her, explained why and asked her to hide it. She did with Kim's help. Since it's been hidden, I have not gone looking for it AND I've stayed off amazon.com. That has been my "personal growth" experience. Because believe me, a few years ago that package would have been toast! LOL.. or I'd be snooping on Amazon.com.

Of course... considering I told Paul that the only thing I want for Christmas is the opportunity to go to a Quilt Retreat in January down on the gulf coast I have NO clue what the box could contain. I am so curious, but I'm being a good girl and waiting. See... I deserve a cookie!

Hi, I tried to email you back but your link on the comment doesn't go to an email. Anyhow, about Quarantine - the rabies things been done before (28 Days Later was just a fancy rabies variation really) and I thought the big human testing lab in the basement was out of left field. None of these people noticed the gigantic torture chambers when they went down there to do wash or go to storage? LOL

Thanks for the comment!

Good job! When I was a kid, there was one year that I "peeked" at my presents. It cured me from ever doing it again, because it totally spoiled the surprise!

Do not ruin the surprise. When I was young, my brother and I did that, and they took everything back.

I used to tell Skye if you peek, Santa will know and take all the presents back..including the ones I got you. Worked like a charm she never did.

I like the surprise too much to ruin it. Glad your finding yourself anticipating what it may be. (Hugs)Indigo

Man, if that was in my house, I would be doing a through search. I can't stand knowing there's something in the house for me. All the guys know it to so they just bring it in, hide it and don't say anything.
