I went to take photos and ofcourse&amp;nbsp; the battery was dead. So I had to charge overnight. Believe it was not expected and it is beautiful. I won&amp;#39;t let Indy have his until Sunday after the groomer has done her thing with him. I did let him have his photo taken with it only. Thank you so very much. You certainly went overboard!&lt;/p&gt;

They said it was delivered Friday.. Whew! She posted pics on SS-2012, glad I went to look tonight. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;So please mark Karla as rec&amp;#39;d. I see several that have not rec&amp;#39;d as yet.

&lt;p&gt;Thea&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Billy told me that the first gift had been taken by Sandy.&amp;nbsp; I can hardly believe that with all he has gone thru with Sandy that he even thought twice about a SS gift.&amp;nbsp; The gift and the thought are both greatly appreciated.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I absolutely love the fabrics and can hardly wait to start on the quilt.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Billy got his package from his SS - he has put it under the Christmas tree. &amp;nbsp;I am not sure if he is able to post or not - but when he can I am sure he will let us know. &amp;nbsp;I didn&amp;#39;t think Sandy hit that bad in Florida where I thought he lived but I am praying for him and his family and grateful that all is okay. &amp;nbsp;He seems to be very resilient and that that was sweet of him to continue with the SS program. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
