MISSION: 2009 Secret Cupid

[+OverTheEdge]

1. Participating - YES!!

 

2. Received Name - YES!!

 

3. Mission Complete - Feb 8, 2009 (YES)

 

4. Cupid Arrived! - YES!!

 

I received my package on Friday - but would not allow myself to open it until I sent my mission on its way. So I went to the post office today to mail off my mission, and rushed back home to open the surprise package. The package was AWESOME!! I would like to thank my secret Cupid – who really did their homework!! The picture does not do justice for what I felt when opening the package.

 

The card was delightful; the Mrs. Fields chocolates will have me running to the gym at least three times this week (but it won't keep me from eating each of them)… There were a dozen chocolate roses (actually a baker's dozen – both pink and red). There was a card that wished me "Sweet Valentine Wishes" – along with a Storage Container (maybe I need to go an actually hide and maintain a cache)… There was also a hook with at compass attached – so I will always know which direction I'm heading.

 

There were some Sweethearts candy hearts – and a coin that matched. That was awesome! I really can't get over that coin and the box of candy hearts – and how they matched… OK, so I've eaten half of the candy hearts, and three of the chocolate roses are not longer around – but I just couldn't resist J

 

There was also a "UR#1" coin, it's a shaped coin – in the shape of a balloon, that I've never seen before. It's awesome! But the most striking thing that I received was the copper wired angle complete with a red halo. I put it in my cache bag – to see if it helps watch over me.

 

I hope everybody's mission goes as well as mine. I couldn't ask for a better or more successful mission. Thank you SO MUCH to my secret Cupid!

My Secret Cupid Valentine arrived today and my wife was very curious.

 

She had picked up the mail today and wanted to know who from Michigan was sending me packages with hearts on it.

 

I finally had to log on to the FORUMS and show her this posting. Thanks goodness it was near the top. I was really sweating it.

 

Thanks Secret Cupid from Michigan whomever you are. The candy and Travel Tag were a nice bonus.

 

I have lots of geocoins but the two you sent were two I don't have and will cherish forever.

My Valentine arrived this morning! Thanks very much to the other yooper. I never knew what a yooper was until now

 

And thanks also for all the geocoins from my seeking list! I am glad this parcel came today, as I was finalising my math trade, and these coins were on there! They get supplanted by other wants now

 

Also thankyou for the pathtags - how did you know I love pathtags

 

My 8 year old must be going into sugar over-load by now - he snaffled the candy as soon as it came out of the package He is like Pavlov's Dog whenever he sees a large package these days

 

And here is the parcel in question:

looks like the welsh lovespoon.

[+Cheesy pigs]

It sure is the Welsh Lovespoon - a Limited Edition in fact

 

Glad it arrived......although after opening your package, I wish I had sent more. I was trying to cut down postage by sending it as a large letter (hence the flat things), but by doing so I only saved a couple of dollars. But I have learnt my lesson, and I shall just go the 'whole hog' from now on!!

huh, I love this Swiss chocolate on the picture. I did not know that you can buy it with the same design as here in Switzerland. Only the name has been changed. So, I feel convinced to send only local non-brand chocolate (cheaper and - more important - better *yummy*).

Yesterday, when I came back from work I found this lovely envelope on the stairs:

And now, I, too, know what a yooper is I'd say its not only someone who attends formal events in snowboots, but someone who really knows how to arrange a great package

I got a really cool "Over the edge"-Coin !!! It makes me grin, because it makes me think of my Mam, I sometimes have to prevent her from walking into a ditch, when we go caching together and she's focused on her GPSr...

And a coin with that Big Mac where da trolls come from... I really loved to learn something about your area, that guide to da yoopanese language is really funny And knowing something about the area where it comes from always makes a coin more special

And I got a geocoin chick, and my first geojelly AND I got hit by a snowball (fortunately not a yellow one...)

And some chocolates & balloons... Heres a picture of all those goodies (minus the things I already ate...)

BTW: I really LOVE that card!

I fear one can't read it from the picture... It says "Day 4: It's quiet now...eerily quiet. They got Larry last night. It's just a matter of time until they come back for me."

Thank you, Mrs. USYoopers!!!

Oh My Gosh!! My Secret Cupid Valentine box arrived yesterday, but I haven't had much time with it. I managed to get it open today, and truly feel undeserving of all the work and effort that went into this. I am truly touched. Words fail me. *she shakes her head in amazement*

 

Sadly, I don't have the time to get photos and post them today as I'm packing to head out to the coast for the long weekend. But, I'm taking the box with me and will post something by tomorrow night.

 

But, a little hint might be in order as to what might have been in that special box: My secret cupid was summerandnana. Thank you so much! There are no words to express my admiration for your talent.

That is one mission that arrived safely, the other should have gotten there by today at latest, did not have to travel that much farther.

 

Still waiting for my 2 Cupid packages to arrive. Hope you all have a great weekend.

4. Cupid Arrived!

 

Know the one I sent arrived as the receiver has posted. I almost feel bad as I read this as a card and 2 coin mission without the other stuff - so, I only sent coins........but I did send 3. Feel confident they will be enjoyed.

 

When folks post missions it would be nice to clarify - card and coin(s) only - with or without fluff. I believe this was done in this case, but it appears a lot of folks included the fluff anyway. I believe the mission Team Leader here did post to please not be disappointed if you only got coins and a card. I just feel bad - as I could have included fluff, just didn't think folks were going to do that. Next year. PS - Not a whine, just an observation!

 

My cupid hasn't arrived but I haven't given up hope or faith. Two more days ........ and even then, the postal service sometimes just doesn't get it.

 

Thanks for all everyone has done on this mission. A fun one indeed!

My hubby picks up the mail and came home with a box today. He looked at me funny and said - "Why did you mail a box to yourself?" I chuckled and said, "Well, I didn't!" Sure enough - it was my Valtine's Day mission! Secret Valentine - you sure made my day!

 

The box was filled with beautiful things. A heart box of chocolates, a pretty gold box with Truffles and a box of Sweethearts. Two cute ducks (which my Granddaughter loves) and a little stuffed TY dog. And on one of the cards was a Mickey pin (how did you know I have a Disney lanyard with pins I collect???) and a nice little keyholder. WOW! You went may beyond but made my day!

 

And Then - the beautiful coins - a set of the pretty Russian Matryoshka Nesting Dolls, a Wherigo, a 2007 Lackey AND (happy dance, happy dance) a YemonYime! What a wonderful and generous mission! Every thing came nicely placed in a Priority Mail box - and - the sender was very careful no clues were on the box! So - Secret Valentine - for making this mission very special!

Today I received a puffy package from Canada! Inside were a lovely card with Jelly Belly jellybeans and two coins from my seeking list: A Gecko Mosaic Green and a Canadian Red Poppy Spy Antique Silver. I once had the green gecko but gave it away in a mission so I'm very glad to have it back in my collection. And the Canadian Spy coin has been on my want list for a long time! I told my son the story about the "spy coins". He thought it was hilarious! And keeps warning me to not put the coin in my pocket!

 

Thank you Secret Cupid from Canada!!! I simply LOVE the coins and card! Oh, and the Jelly Bellies? Cherry! Yummy!! GONE!!!

Yay! Cupid arrived today!!! Anxiously opened my mailbox tonight and found a lovely padded envelope! I received a 2007 St. Patrick's Day coin (love the little leprechaun on it!) and a First To Find coin (very nice colors!).

 

Apparently the envelope has been "wandering" around Miami for quite a few days - it was postmarked on Feb 5th but just arrived today. I noticed that the participating email I sent Fluttershy with my address had a typo in my address - I left off one number , which made a pretty big difference in my location. So, I'm glad the postal service found me anyways, rather than returning the envelope as "undeliverable"!

Thank you Fossillady! I love the coins!!!

 

[+LadyBee4T]

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!!

 

The mailman has come and gone and no second mission yet. But that means I will be looking forward to next weeks mail.

 

Hope everyone has a great day and no more shoveling of snow like I just did!

[+FluteFace]

Words mostly fail me, so I'll let the photos do most of the speaking. Summerandnana was my secret cupid and she outdid herself. She apologized for not sending candy, but I'm hugely grateful that she didn't 'cause I certainly don't need any more of that!

 

Everything came in the box she crafted, sitting to the left, both lid and box, inside and out. Also included is a wonderful coin in the shape of a backpack made of fimo (?) using what I think they call caning. Very cool.

 

 

This is a fimo (?) container with my fav purple Koko on it, complete with lid, and I loved the back, too!

 

 

And last, but certainly not least! He came in his own li'l glittery bag.

 

 

Thank you so much for all the wonderful goodies. You truly blessed me. Now here's my dumb question: I'm thinking about putting the little signal in my car to join some other li'l geocaching trinkets that I have. Will heat and/or sunlight be bad for him? Will he fade or melt? I couldn't bear to have anything happen to him!

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Now go kiss somebody!

Everything came in the box she crafted, sitting to the left, both lid and box, inside and out. Also included is a wonderful coin in the shape of a backpack made of fimo (?) using what I think they call caning. Very cool.

 

 

This is a fimo (?) container with my fav purple Koko on it, complete with lid, and I loved the back, too!

 

 

And last, but certainly not least! He came in his own li'l glittery bag.

 

 

Thank you so much for all the wonderful goodies. You truly blessed me. Now here's my dumb question: I'm thinking about putting the little signal in my car to join some other li'l geocaching trinkets that I have. Will heat and/or sunlight be bad for him? Will he fade or melt? I couldn't bear to have anything happen to him!

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Now go kiss somebody!

 

The correct question to ask is "WILL HE CROAK?"

ROFL Neither heat nor snow nor sleet nor hail should hurt that little guy. As I produce these FIMO trinkets I usually return to oven at 260 degrees several times and while they get soft each time they harden back up after cooling. Now. direct sunlight, not sure. It is not painted, each color is the actual color of the clay so I think it should be OK, glad you liked it, enjoy.

 

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY everyone

Well I just can't believe my winning streak lately (its been AWESOME!!!) and one of the lucky things that happened to me was getting spoiled by my Secret Cupid for this mission. I knew from the address I was in for a surprise so you would have thought I had braced myself for it....I did brace myself, really I did, but you know what? It did not work lol. I was ready as I steeled myself for greatness opening this package of mine. See I've received a few things from this awesome artist before so I knew to brace myself. But dang she's so good she got me again! lol Rarely have I ever gasped so loud in my geocaching/geocoining life....but boy oh boy when I opened this I gasped LOUDLY and tears came to my eyes IMMEDIATELY only they were HAPPY TEARS. I cannot thank you enough SUMMERANDNANA for ALL your wonderful work. Again you have suprised me!!! Why the time this must have taken you!! ohhhhhh i can't believe it!! And I love the back just as much as the front!!! And then there's Signal too!! ohhhhh everything is wonderful and thank you for all the coins (she gave me four coins too lol) on top of everything else. I surely have died and gone to heaven. God bless you my friend!!

 

This is is so you can see how truly good she is....her stuff looks just like one of my coins!!

I just can't thank you enough Charlene....YOU ROCK!! and FLUTTERSHY....YOU ROCK TOO!! Thank you for putting this mission together for everyone

 

Now between all this goodness and winning the Valentine cointest I don't think I shall sleep tonight lol
