Only for those who know Elaine

Y'all know what a great storyteller she is and her tales of woe are usually about something dumb she did...
About 3 weeks ago she e-mailed me and said she had a bunch of clothes that no longer fit and since they were too good to throw out or give to Goodwill, could I use them? I said of course and was looking forward to getting the box of clothes in the mail. It got here today. A huge 22 pound box. I opened it and the first thing I saw was a coloring book and box of crayons.....WTF??????????
As I dug deeper, I'm pulling out toddlers clothes size 3.
The whole box was full of kids clothes. I call Elaine and she's laughing before she even gets to the phone. She had another box she was trying to send to Melissa for her little boy and switched the packages.
So.. 1. I'm doing great staying in the lines of the coloring book and
2. Melissas son is going to grow up to be a cross-dresser.
Melissa, your box will be winging it's way to you on Monday and mine will probably be lost somewhere over Kansas. 
Only Elaine.

ROTFLMAO! I just hope you two get your stuff by Christmas. I laughted all afternoon wondering what you thought when you open the box Linda. Mel called and told me you got hers and she got yours. Linda just be glad I didn't send Mel a pet snake  !
IT was my daughters fault . She is the one who labled them and it was her company that shipped them.
The company will be picking the pckages up and taking them to the right place. No Extra Charge ! No Charge to ya'll at all . You both just have to stay home Monday 
Remember to stay home Monday Linda So they can pick it up.
Woobie Your package will be there the end of next week I just mailed it yesterday. If you open yours and its not books call me LOL.

Linda, if you think that box was huge, wait till you get yours! 56lbs of stuff I cannot use, LOL. Anyway, when I got the box, I opened it up and took out some clothes on top, nope, no kids stuff. Then I dug through the middle toward the bottom to see if there were ANY kids clothes at all....nope. Then I busted out laughing.
Elaine, I love you sweetie, but no matter how much you want me to, I can't fit into a size 6.

I don't know Elaine personally, but I think we could be related. Absolutely sounds like something I would do.

Don't eat the crayons. They taste like crap.
Just some advice from someone who knows better.

waaaait a minute......does this mean that the nipple chain you sent me was mixed up with the thing you sent BobP, Elaine?
kinda gives a whole new meaning to the term "Twisted Sister" huh?
Linda - did you at least try ON some of the clothing before you sent it back? Could have made for some VERY cute Christmas cards, you know.
