    I have shipped to the Netherlands in four days and it has taken 10 - 14 just to go to Canada; go figure the postal service.

    I actually learned a financial lesson shipping internationally; I didn't pay attention to the weight of the package and it ended up costing me $50 to ship. Now I keep international packages under four pounds to keep shipping reasonable.

    Me too! My other packages arrived at the weekend, but this one hasn't....... I know my SP is around as I've seen her on the board today, so I know she'd post if it had arrived. Bit of a mystery.

    Secret pal I just double checked the delivery confirmation notice and an attempt to deliver was made and notice left now for you to pick up from the post office - after 15 days it will be returned to sender

    Hope you make it to the post office to pick up your package.

    I think your husband must be related to mine! He is really just like a little kid when ever I get on the phone or on the computer, wants my attention, wants to know all what is going on with the girls on the quilting board, I told him last night that maybe he should sign up for a secret pal! he is thinking, I can see those wheels turning in his head!LOL...

    I'm going to post a picture of my stilettoes that won a first place at the county fair - I got one as a sample from a company on line and the others are part of the package I got at Bed Bath and Beyond. I had fun with them - and perhaps I'll include one in next month's SP package.
