My gift arrived at destination: This has still not been received yet. Unfortunately, I did not pay to track it because once it leaves Canada, I can't track it any longer.  So, I can only hope that it arrives soon. I will give it a bit of time, but I will certainly send a replacement if it gets lost. I have a feeling it'll arrive within the week. Cross your fingers...
I received a gift: Thank you so much, neiaeadry. I was thrilled to see a package arrive from Almada, Portugal. I lOVE the tiny card too. :santa:
