I tracked my package this morning going to my SP and it left the Greensboro, NC sort at 4:00am this morning....I am hoping it is getting delivered today....as it looks like they lost the box for a day...sometimes the post office just makes me mad...but oh well it is the holidays ..... it is expected....

Default Dec SP from Ladybug1938

I've decided that I need to be Ladybug1938's permanent partner -- her goodies were perfect for me. Candle, pocket tote, handmade cardcase, tissue holder,adorable pincushion; great quilting magazines, mystery books. Butterfinger candy, mints, really fun patterns to make up, and best of all ... lots of charm squares and "orphan" blocks. I love the charms -- I have my granddaughters help me sort them, then they go into floral, I-spy, and scrappy quilts for charity (Quilts for Kids) and home. Orphan blocks (blocks left over from other projects) are never wasted and become totebags, hot pads, wall hangings, and lap quilts. (Can you tell I was raised by parents and grandparents who went thru the depression?). Actually, I prefer the scraps to fabric cuts because I'm always afraid to cut into yardage for just little pieces. Thanks so much, Rosemary, for a very personalized and generous package. (The dogs thank you, too)

I'm having problems uploading pix from my computer -- always worked before and now get "upload failed" messages. Not good. Will keep trying ...

Ok, I give up -- not doing anything different than I usually do, but still not uploading to message. Have there been any system changes I'm not aware of?

that message is usually because you need to make the pics smaller Nancy.

I never had to before ... and I posted just fine last month. I tried both Google Chrome and Firefox. Can you tell me again how to resize pix and I'll try that. Just getting more and more frustrated.
Tried pix from camera (which, like I said, ALWAYS worked before) and pix taken by my phone and downloaded to computer file. HELP!!!





always

OK -- got this resizing thing down. At the risk of being censured (but I couldn't resist), am sending this pic I call "Bathtime Distraction", which I think represents one of the wonders of Christmas thru a child's eye, Sorry if it offends anyone.

Everyone have a happy, healthy holiday -- and spend time reflecting on the true reason.
