Prepare for death & follow me.

I'm glad I'm not the only one running late as unfortunetly I got sick yesterday(nothing major) but as such didn't make it to the post office today. :( I will try to make it to the post office during the week but it may have to wait until Saturday.

Boys!!!! :lol: :lol: :roll:

Thanks for the well wishes ScarecrowJack, I am finally feeling better, now to get the water main fixed, we have several bids coming in, cross your finger and toes that it does require an arm and a leg to pay for it.

I sent mine Saturday, I'm soo excited, I hope the like it, mainly because I made the big gift. Now my oldest daughter want me to make her one, thats a good sign I guess!! I can't wait for them to get it!!! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

I got home today and my wife asked me "What's in the big box that came?" Since I didn't order anything recently I knew the Reaper must have come for me!!! As I started to open the box I saw a hint of orange through the packing tape and my excitement went through the roof. After opening the box I was greated by a familiar face....

That is a cloth bag that contained all my loot. At this point I must mention that never have a received such a meticulously packed...package. Every item was bubble wrapped with care to make sure that it arrived to me intact.

To be continued...

After opening the JOL bag inside I found:

Three realistic/creepy witchs(two on pumpkins one reaching out for you), two signs, some caution tape and a skull door knocker.

My reaper was ramaries69 and I would like to thank her for all the awesome stuff and all the obvious care she put into it. I love everything. Now to decide where all that stuff goes!

You're welcome, Demonick Duck!! :D :D

My reaper, Andy, was just as wonderful and meticulous and I have to confess, that bubble wrap was recycled. It came from all the way from California; it made my packaging process to you, safer and easier.

Happy Halloween DD! I'm glad you liked everything! :D

Oh and the pumpkin bag, in which everything came in, is actually a chair cover. You're supposed to slip it on the back of a dining chair; in case you don't know what to do with it.
Quite frankly, I think I'm going to buy two more of those covers to put over my sofa pillows.

ramaries69 it doesn't matter that it was recycled just that you took the time and effort that you clearly did. Also I must confess I had no idea that the pumpkin was a chair cover...I thought it was weird that the bag opened under his face instead of on top!

Witchy don't worry...based on your past gifts that I've seen anyone would be lucky too have you as their reaper!

The reason I bought the chair cover and used it as wrapping was because I couldn't find Halloween wrapping paper. I wanted something nice and when I came across it, it was perfect; size and all! I figured it served dual purpose, as wrapping and chair cover.

My reaper package arrived a couple of days ago, just go the chance to post. It's been a little hectic. My reaper was johnsoneliza52. I received a gorgeous scarecrow welcome sign, a really cool looking Halloween totem pole with a witch, a pumpkin, a cat, and a ghost, and a very pretty candy dish with candy. I love what I got, the gifts were wonderful. Thank you for the thoughtful gifts!! And I have to ask, where did you get the bone candy? It was really good.

We're the farmer's scarecrows
We scare away the birds,
We keep the farmer's corn safe
Without any words.
But when Halloween comes
We jump out of the ground
And we scare the boys and girls
When they come walking 'round.

Nice stuff, SJack.

I like that totem and the pumpkin dish can go from September through Thanksgiving.
All you that doth my grave pass by,

As I am now so you must be,

ramaries: It was an awesome idea...Now I just have to pick

SCJ you got some good stuff I like the totem pole as well!


And now for good news :D /bad news :(
Good news: I finally was able to ship out my package yesterday. The post office says it should be there Thursday. Though I only trust the PO so much.
Bad news: I was able to ship the package out during a weekday because I am again unemployed...I was hoping this job was different and I was going to manage to hold on to it but I guess not.
