    I want to thank Gzuslivz (a.k.a. Renee)for a fantastic swap.
    She sent the cutest fabric flower that puts a smile on my face every time I look at it. She made a pretty hot pad with pansy fabric. Pansies are one of my favorite flowers because they keep blooming all summer. Plus a home/travel sewing case. A package of curved safety pins. Also a spa foot mask. I have never had a mask for my feet. Believe me I need something for my feet. I go barefoot to offen. My heels need help. Also a fat quarter of the most beautiful purple batik fabric. I want more of that fabric. I'm going to look for more. Plus "A guide to Fine Hand Quilting" book. I think I will try hand quilting but on a small piece first. Last but not least, a set of 11 strands of beads that I love the colors of. I just learned a new way of beading.
    I can't forget 2 Dove chocolate candy bars.
    Thank you again Gzusliva (Renee)

    Dropped my SP package in the mail this afternoon. It is heading east and the zip code totals up to 26 and her favorite color is red.

    Still waiting on my package, but I am not worried.

    What an ordeal to mail my SP package. We lost electricity for a total of 15 hours yesterday. The postmistriss finally after about 5 hours into the poweroutage had to start the generator. I wanted to have the pkg weighed to see which way I would send it. I was going to send a tyvek soft squishy, but found out for .60 more I could send it in a priorty flat rate. The firmy box offered more protection. I had to pay .70 for the del conf. I asked if it where free and she said only for click and ship pkgs. My pkg ended up costing $11.65 to send. Is that about normal? The pkg is headed to a NW State. I see a lot of pkgs headed east, wondering if 1 could be mine. I am about as NE as you can get.

    Yeah, mine run around 8-10 dollars, depending on weight and how far it has to go. The post office is definately making their wages. lol

    My package is on it's way to a state that starts with an "I".
    The town's name starts with an "S".

    And one other tidbit.......

    lies on the south edge of land originally owned by George Boxley

    My package went out yesterday to a State that starts with an I that is almost in another country to the North. The city initials are TF which could stand for Too Fat (which I am) but does not. It was kind of "Bitter" sweet to send it. No beating around the "bush."
