So I have been MIA because I was so frustrated with the IF board after the Elf Gift exchange. I know that sounds like a silly thing to be frustrated about but I was and rather than be snarky I jsut went away. My elf was AWESOME, but the person I sent a gift to was a big ol Poo Poo Head. I never got a thank you or anything. Then I found out she also hadn't sent a gift to the person she was supposed to (Yolanbo) I thought that was super rude so I volunteered to send one which I did.
Then I still didn't get a thank you and said "to hell with this". I do realize that sounds silly and petty but I couldn't imagine why I would send two gifts and not even get a thank you. Late last week my package to Yolanbo was returned to me. Why it took so long to be returned is beyond me but it was marked "unclaimed" and it came with postage due for it to be sent back to me (I had already paid for postage to send it but had to pay for postage to get it back too which seemed odd). Anyway, I felt better b/c Yolanbo is not a poopoo head but just didn't get the package and I felt worse because Yolanbo STILL didn't get a package despite having two elves. Yolanbo you must really be fed up! So I have this pacakge and don't know what to do with it or understand why it was "unclaimed". Any suggestions?
Re: ******Worms and Yolanbo********
Oh, cutie, sorry you had such issues when you were only trying to be a super-generous elf.
If you don't mind re-sending it (after Y confirms address again), I will paypal you the shipping.
Thanks cutie and I've been wondering where you were. missed you

Hello Nature Lover!
First let me say that I just typed this whole long heartfelt post and I accidently hit a key on my laptop that was the back button and lost my whole post before I could send it I HATE mt laptop!!!!! GRRRRRRR!!!!
Okay, sorry I had to get that out!!! Anyway...............
I'm so sorry to hear my Elf was such a poo poo head to you too!!!! I can't believe she didn't even thank you!!!
Thank you so much for offering to be my elf. I'm so sorry it got returned to you. Just the fact that you were so thoughtful puts a huge smile on my face
This year was a pretty shitty Christmas as I'm sure it was for many of the ladies on here! The one thing I was looking forward to was my exchange gift, and when it never came I was very disapointed! But, now that I know I did have an awesome 2nd Elf, it reminds me how much I love exchanges!!
Thank you so much to you and worms! Worms had answered my many messages and has been so patient and kind.
Worms: Thank you for offering to pay for the postage. I'm not sure how to use Paypal but my H uses it. I could ask him to send the postage to one of you.
Again, Nature Lover, thank you SOOOOOO much for being such an awesome ELF!!!!! I hope you're not frustrated with this board anymore!! I'd love to get to know you :-) If you want I'll message you my address again. If not, I would completely understand!
{Huge Hugs} to you and worms!!!
