I found the Fed-Ex box!

[Mannequin]

Long story short, I was looking for the other key card for the gym and came across a recently arrived Fed-Ex box from Houston, TX addressed to my man! He went to Whiteflash!

It is open, but I DID NOT PEEK. I''m usually really bad about surprises, but I don''t want to ruin this one.

Not sure how long the ring has been here in the house, but it''s here!

YAY!!!!

Also, good for you for not peeking! You will be rewarded for not doing so!

Now I know I have to bring my binoculars camping next weekend.

LOL! At least I''ll know ahead of time not to get scared by the rustling sounds coming from the bushes!

Ha!

Don''t be too trusting, it could be me... or it could be a raccoon trying to steal your marshmallows. That happened when i went camping last year. The little bastard jumped right up on our picnic table and stole a bag of our marshmallows!!

I''m getting very excited for you, EQ!!!

 

[trillionaire]

Aw,

How exciting!

 

[CristinaRuns26.2]

Awesome!

!!! You''re a stronger woman than I for not peeking. That would be so hard for me to resist doing!

 

[LitigatorChick]

EQ, I found the box myself about 2 weeks ago. It killed me to hold the ring in my hands and not open it!!!! Torture!!! I had to tell him to move the box and the ring, or I might lose my willpower and sneak a peak!

 

[Bjedifish]

YAY!!! Nice job not peeking!! Good for you!

 

[Jessie702]

I had the very same thing happen, LOL. I picked up the box without really realizing what it was, and when I saw the return label and registered that there was *something* inside - OMG. I am not going to tell him to move it or hide it, and I am NOT going anywhere near it. I''ll get to see what''s inside in just a few short weeks anyway!

No way! Greedy little bugger! I''ll know it''s you and not a raccoon by the blinding glare coming from your rock.

I am SO bringing champagne with me on this trip. Lots of it.

That happened to me once, too! Yeah, you gotta protect those babies!

 

[KittyBling]

YAY for you!!

Well done for not looking! I don''t know how you controlled yourself lol!

 

[fisherofmengirly]

Oooh.... Equ!!!

From the worst LIW ever, I say OPEN it!!! Heehee!!

Okay, don't, but gosh... I want to run over there and open it for you, tell you how pretty it is, then put it back and let you get surprised!!!

Still checking up on you every now and then... and waiting along with you!! Yippeee!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Little Monster]

Wow... that takes some serious will power to not look!! Might be even harder than not eating the last of the Ben & Jerry''s pint in the freezer that you know is there & can''t quite not think about

Keep it up - you will be all the more amazed & happy when you see it when he gives it to you! And, given its return address in Houston, it''s going to be a stunner!!

Just remember... that orange box is in the house!! Yipee!!

 

[princessplease]

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here''s hoping to a proposal soon!

 

[Mannequin]

THANK YOU everyone for your posts! I still have NOT peeked and I WON''T.

Fisher, you are not the worst LIW ever, LOL. I loved everything about your engagement saga!


Last night the conversation was heavy on the future because of a possible rental house purchase (his third) and an email my mom sent re: wedding costs. He let it slip that he talked to my parents already! I had asked him to ask their blessing to be respectful, and because it was important to them and to me. So, the blessing is given, the ring is ready, and the suspected engagement weekend is coming up soon! Woo hoo![/b]
