I'm worried to send things out yet.  I've got two things I'm tracking heading my way that seem to have vanished into a black hole as soon as they hit the Lehigh Valley PA Distribution Center.  One of them is my Secret Santa gift that was sent in very early December.  On the bright side, this means I have the potential to have a surprise Christmas sometime in January.  

 

I'll get things boxed up this weekend, but I may wait a few more days to hopefully let the local center work through the backlog.  

Seems alot of black hole kinda stuff happens in Pennsylvania.

I ended up wanting to pick your brain today....

LCS got in some eerie and creepy mags 

They had the eerie 23that I owned a long time ago that I sold off, but this one wasn't in better off condition either

My prize went out in the mail today.  Post Office said "should be there by Tuesday".  I laughed at her.  I don't think she appreciated that.

Quick shout-out to No. 1 pick recipient and provider of my raffle prize @Barth - despite me picking 49th overall, I got a prize highly-ranked on my own list, his Archie mystery box! Given I won’t be able to get it until I can get down to the family home in the good ol’ USA whenever the border opens, I asked if he could send me some teaser pics of the contents... in addition to a variety of books that will be unveiled at the unboxing, he’s also sending along this trio of very cool Pops comprising the classic love triangle in their ‘50s and ‘60s signature garb. Thank you sir - can’t wait to see everything in person!

Wow 🥺 that's something! Honorable gift for sure, I had mailed you in one of these years back. I remember you mentioning archie and kirby

Glad that your interests are still being fed 😉 I did kind of smile when I saw that prize and thought of you me and others that might take a swing at it 🤠

I'm currently hunting Josie, so very slowly.

Happy Holidays and glad you're time to pick wasn't disappointing. Mine wasn't either and I picked 64th. Thank God for these boards such a blessing

A huge thanks goes out to @Haupia as the package he sent arrived yesterday. I had his B&B#30 ranked quite high on my pick list. He really knocked it out of the stratosphere, not only with the comic book but also with the Hawaiian treats. I cant remember the last time I had Macadamia nuts.

 

And the goodies from Hawaii.

Received my CGC Graded Batman 24 from @ADAMANTIUM yesterday  Super fast shipping and packaged great. Thank you for the awesome book.

Also received my package from @Ryan. with the Donny Cates Thor run and the mini mystery box. Also super fast shipping and packaged great. Thor is my favorite and the mystery books were awesome 

And a big thank you to  @The Sledder @HollyJollyOne@Crops068 for everything....I hope everyone had an amazing Holday

[Unstoppablejayd]

Holy ! Not only did my gift giver @Old_Man_Adam personally drop my mystery box off (who knew he was local) he packed it full of so much goodness! What an amazing assortment of goodies!! This is above and beyond generous and should keep me busy for quite some time! Thank you Adam and a pleasure meeting you!

@skypinkblu's kindness appears to know no bounds.  

I made a comment in one of her threads about her masks, spotting some TMNT masks.  She set aside some of the material, made up a few masks, and shipped them to me.  If that weren't enough, she also made masks for my boys.  Turtles, Pokémon, and Iron Man.  They LOVE them!  Plus, the elastic band materials are super soft, making them very comfortable.

Thanks so much, Sharon!  You're the best!

You were the TMNT fan she set the material aside for, makes complete sense. LOL

My kiddo was excited for his masks too, just received mine from her as well.

I received my second package, this time from @unclezebo Great fun and looking forward to the December to do this all over again!  It's the time of year that I always look forward to.

I love love, love, all the pictures of the kids. Thank you everyone who has shared those.

I was  thinking of buying a big bulletin board and printing them all out.  I would do that and take a picture but I know some people are private, so I'll just "think" about doing it one of these days.

So glad the munchkins (and adults) like the masks, gave me something to do besides all the negative thoughts/things that were available. Lemonade from a kind of lemony year.

@zalgardos, yours are in the mail tomorrow.

I’m a lucky one this year despite a very low draft spot; not only did I snake around for a 2nd pick but I also got lucky enough to land one of the six bonus boxes assembled by @The Sledder from a mystery donor, IIRC. Well, I picked the assorted Spidey mystery bonus box and just had a blast opening this load of fun! See for yourselves below; thank you!

What junk did I send you last year?

[Cocomonkey]

Received my mystery box from @Comics4Allon Wednesday, but got a little...distracted...and so didn't get to opening it until yesterday. Love the Child pin and the Legends figures, and looking forward to reading the book! (I couldn't get my cat away from the goodies long enough for the pictures, he was just as excited as I was, heh.) Thanks so much, Comics4All!
