UPDATE! My Santa is super! I got home today and guess what! Another package! She had replaced the broken items!! Thank you so much! It really wasn't necessary! But, I am enjoying a nice cup of tea in the lovely mug right now. There was no way anything was breaking this time!! You did an excellent job protecting them. You are what makes this such a great thing! You have made me so very happy!!

I am so glad that I waited to open until Christmas. It is my first Christmas alone. I am ill and my twins chose to spend Christmas elsewhere - they spent a bit last night opening their gifts, my daughter had one for me that was very thoughtful and my granddaughter was here. So, I am trying to be upbeat but, what with being sick and alone, I am sad. Then...the big box!!! I received a beautiful big box, filled with more beautifully wrapped gifts! We never even communicated and it is as if my SS knew me! PERFECTION!! A lovely terrarium with succulents (I am an addict), the most beautiful starfish with a sachet inside (I love the ocean), bergamot essential oil with reeds (my very favorite scent and it is glorious alongside my cuppa Earl Grey!), and a lovely mug with my favorite color, cerulean inside!! AND meditation stones (I collect rocks and gemstones!! Thank you Santa for all of the thought and effort you put into my gifts! It truly made my Christmas! You brought tears of joy to my eyes! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Absolutely the best gift I got!

p.s. you may want to contact UPS as the mug and terrarium are broken. I still love them and do not mind the shatter on the terrarium and I believe I can use some glue and fix the mug so that I can use it to plant more succulents in! Always a silver lining!!
