So yesterday was a GEM of a day...Why? because early am the postman delivered a box from treefrog with soldiers...then the postman in a postman truck shows up with a bigger box with more soldiers...then Fedex shows up with even more soldiers...and to top that off UPS shows up with even more soldier items I purchased on Ebay...Im telling you it was so stinkin beautiful! Absolutely beautiful!!! Everyone of you needs to expirence a quadruple delivery if you haven't already.

Is it even possible to replicate that again if I wanted too?

Markey, that sounds like the best day I could possibly imagine (well, maybe there are a few other things we could imagine being thrown in ). But to be swimming in toy soldiers like that, w/ one delivery after the other, you must have been like a kid in a candy store! I have yet to experience a quadruple delivery day, but I have had similar Christmas experiences. Thanks for sharing the uplifting experience w/ us and enjoy those soldiers!! If you have a chance, maybe share a pic of the whole delivery. Have fun! Joe

A fine day! Glad you enjoyed it.

Every day that I get a parcel in the mail filled with toy soldiers, it's like being a kid at Christmas all over again. I usually savor the moment for a while before opening the package; and then open the package s-l-o-w-l-y to enjoy the moment. My heart races like I'm 10 years old, and - even though I know what the box contains - the thrill is the same as it was those many years ago.

A box of toy soldiers can be like a time machine - bringing back the joys of youth, and getting us back in touch with the child within. Add to this a love of history, the pride of displaying our figures and the joys of collecting and hunting down the sets we want, and you have to conclude - an awful lot of joy for very little money!
