Official Halloween Exchange Thank You Thread


K@t

Recommended Posts

A HUGE Thank You to j.s. !! My gift arrived a few days ago and we had so much fun opening the package. I say "WE" b/c my boys were there to help. Loved all the spiders in the mix and the Fear Factor eyeballs/candy were too funny. Thank you again for such a special surprise. You outdid (is that the correct spelling...oh well, you know what I mean) yourself for sure. A pic is below. I forgot to put the "ghostly" light-up ink pen in the pic, but it is being used often.

My ghostly gift will be going south this week. I have all the items. Things have just been crazy around here b/c of FIL's emergency surgery (posted on May thread). Should be in the mail before Friday.

TO the Yellow Rose of Texas mine went out to Tuesday, it should be there today or Friday! I am very excited to see what she thinks!

:clap2:

I received my halloween gift on Friday the 13th. I don't know where to begin. First I have to give a BIG THANK YOU to Boo Boo Kitty. You where so thoughtful. I loved everything.

I received...

Pedicure set, 2" pilar candy corn candle, ceramic pumkin, fall stuffed scare crow, pumkin sponge, green tea cucumber bath caviar & shower gel, a few treats (small suckers) and halloween themed plastic rings.

I don't know how you did it. You included everything I would have picked out if we would have went shopping together. That just amazing to me!

Hope you enjoy your halloween gift exchange just as much as I did. Thank you so much!!!!!!!

Jean

Paladin,

I am so glad you like it! I had a bit of difficulty because what I had planned on doing I dont think you would have liked (your not a girl). Then I thought cool, guy shopping .... but after I saw you had 2 small children I was afraid to go too goulish (I can get pretty bad) and traumatize your kids, so I felt this was a nice compromise. The window sillouhettes really look quite cool at night (from the outside) with the lights on - let me know what you think of them. Have a safe and Happy Halloween!

What's up? I keep looking at the thread to see pictures of the cool things people are getting, and nothing. This thread hasn't moved in 2 days. I sent my package out last week and I'm sure my secret halloween person has gotten it. I haven't seen one yet, but it's probably "in the mail" hee,hee.

If you've received you package, post something to let the sender know that you received it and so we can all enjoy seeing the things people are sending. I love Halloween and can't wait to see more.

I received my box yesterday. I'm not sure who it is from. We got several boxes that day and my DH opened everything. He thought it was the mark robert's ornaments and fairies he ordered.

Anyway I got 4 black bags full of goodies. I received a very unique hand massager, massage oils, a scruber, two halloween picks, and a bale of hay. I immediately put the picks and bale of hay with my halloween display. Received a great collection of colored leaves that also fit nicely with my display.

Thank you, thank you, whoever you are. My gifts are great.

Barbara ~ Glad you liked the gifts. There was also a green scarecrow thing in one of the bags in addition to a Halloween card. Maybe men should let their wives open the packages. :girl_hug: My wife tore into a box from my sister just today. It was filled with homemade blankets for the kids and stuff to make candy apples. We love to get packages. :biggrin1:

BTW, my wife told me I should have mentioned the massager thing is called the "tingler" and here's the website link: http://www.everythingforlove.com/Public/TheTingler/index.cfm It's made of copper and it acts as a conductor with your hair. Of course, it doesn't work so well on me since I don't have much on top. :phanvan Have you used it yet? My wife swears by it.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
