Didn't mean to offend alikat110, I know there are some that have children at home and work, and I will be the 1st to give credit for the time that is involved with that, I do remember well. I was a widow at 27yrs.old with 2 sons that were 1 and 3. Not easy for anyone who has to work and raise children. It's natural the more time you have people take that time. I would just like to finish sooner like joanlizbay if there was enough people interested in doing that. If there is fine and if not that's fine too. I certainly didn't mean all the groups, perhaps just 1 or 2 if they wanted to get done a little quicker. Please accept my apology if my statement came across wrong.

Just need an F8 from girlscouts1. :)

I don't care if it is 3 months or 4 months turn around. although for this swap, because I signed up for all of them.....having the 4 months is great. If it changed to 3 months then I would just not signed up for all of them. actually I probably won't signed up for all of them again anyways. It was an experiment to try and it has been tough but I am getting there. Up to almost 60 blocks finished. So will have 30 left to go.
|
Since it was my first time I was afraid to sign up for more, but I didn't have any trouble getting all mine done. Of course postage for all of them would probably put me in the poor house. I wouldn't mind a three month turn around tho.

Talk about postage.....my post offices here...notice I did make it plural as in so. cal you can go to 5 - 6 PO within a 5 mile circle and I have tried them all. Each PO seemed to have their own little rules about how much to charge for international.....Now they have all cracked down and got on the same page and to mail my blocks back to Canada and Englands was $6.55 a piece. For an envelop weighing less then 1 oz. So because I am on a limited budget I am going to have to not do international anymore. Sad because I like having my international friends.
|
Oh my, that is atrocious. I went to a little store like mail boxes and they charged me 1.75. That was okay. I sent the f8 and block at the same time. I would have a stroke at 6.55.
