I know the person who drew your name and I'll contact her. She's great and wouldn't diss you, it must be lost in the mail.

VaGirl, I mailed it the first of December! I know US Customs was holding packages longer than usual, but this is ridiculous! Let me know if it shows up. If it makes you feel better, I never got mine either

I can't find her post now, but I remember lavender "outing" herself as your elf. And she said she mailed it. Maybe they're BOTH stuck at the border going each way! Ugh!

Canucknyc - oh dear - now I am REALLY ticked at USPS - I have had so many bizarre things happen this year with my mailings - including your ornament not arriving yet!!! I HOPE it has arrived by now - and am now worried about where it is if it hasn't arrived! I mailed it Sat the 18th and everything else I mailed that day has arrived (although some in crappy condition) - please let me know if you got it yet and belated Happy Holidays!!!!

With the exception of CanuckNYC and VA Girl, I think everyone but Rosi got their ornament.
It appears that a lurker joined the ornament exchange and has not followed-through. She got her ornament, but I doubt that Rosi will ever see hers.
I don't have a problem with lurkers joining the exchange, but if you are going to accept an ornament from a registered user, then have the common decency to send one to the person who was chosen for you.
It seems this person has a myriad of health issues, which she says are keeping her from buying and sending an ornament and I'm very sorry for that, but as I said at the beginning of this exchange, if you're "in" be IN!! It's just plain NOT FAIR!
And if you ARE a lurker who joins a forum event, please don't lie and say you "forgot" your forum name.
Rant over!

Canucknyc, no problem! What a great New Year's treat when it arrives...thank you for being my Elf...(Customs probably has MY ornament on their tree!!)

Send me Rosi's address - I'd be happy to send her a little ornament to start off the new year right.

I'd be happy to send an ornament as well if you send me Rosi's address... I would be so disappointed
