Now five boxes in one day and I am exhausted. It was a tough look at the new me.

I can't wait to see what you bought Sandy. Kelly is pretty darn lucky to have you as a partner you do some very lovely work. I would happily take one of your runners/mats. OH OH that star topper you sent me in patriotic fabrics would be perfect .. I look forward to your sneak peaks!
Remember the days when your kids were little and they had to touch everything. Your favorite phrase was don't touch. Now you need help touching, putting in boxes. Is there any 10 yr old and up near by you could hire to touch for you and you could supervise. Maybe one of your buddies at dialysis knows another "brat" you could hire. Just a thought.

Now I'm bummed, thought this swap closed June 1, re-read July 1. I'm so ready to mail, need to wait for my partner. Sikesjj sent you 2 boxes today, 5 quilts, so I hope it will help. They won't get chocolate like I sent Krystyna....didn't have any room left. Will look up the tracking #'s and PM you so you can have them too.

Told you about sending the quilts but thought you needed something that might have all been destroyed with water, chocolate to the rescue. Thought it might put a little smile on your face for a wee bit and something you and hubby could share. Little things sometimes you remember and so glad you did.

Its okay Jaba, chocolate doesn't last long around here, I eat it as soon as I get it so I actually don't keep it in the house for that reason. Can't wait to see the quilts and I will post pictures as soon as I get them and when we give them out also.
