cute package Sharon!!

I find that my camera takes pictures that are too many megabytes for the limit on the board. You might want to check that and adjust your camera if possible. Or you might crop your photo so it is not so large (by large I don't mean physical size, I mean electronic size). Hope that helps
Sharon:)

K - You have SUCH self-control. If I don't go to the store, I go on-line and buy something!!!

Mailed my package today to a gal with the name of a 1950's (yes, I'm old - I'll reach Social Security age this month, in fact) comic book character. Further there's a potential for water moccasins where she lives. I figure I'm safe putting out such specific info since she does not seem to post on this board.

How are you doing Brenda? Are you anywhere near the big hail storm?

hmmm....could have been me....wasn't "Brenda Starr" from the 50's?....BUT, I've already received both of my packages this month and....well....we all KNOW that I post:p

EXACTLY!!!!!! hahah.....
so far no hail storms but that could change at any minute the way the weather is here.....

and here is a tute on how to reduce the pictures pixels to a size this board can handle
http://www.quiltingboard.com/qb-help...t166655-3.html

hopefully this should help you to post your pics.:thumbup:

hmmm.... t'm thinking betty boop and i don't believe she posts a lot. but i don't know where she lives so i could be wrong. i know water mocs live around rivers because i got chased by one on a canoe trip once.

Betty Boop's profile page says she lives in Wolcottville, IN

Ok, I have finally gotten caught up again. Lets see if I can remember everything I wanted to post about. Maybe I should have taken notes. Ok here I go.....all of the homemade jewelry is pretty, hope everyone that has been ill is feeling better Sue, joejoe, wandalou ( now see this is where the notes would have helped) Teresa hope that you are starting on the road of recovery. I haven't had a chance to check back on your page. Next, on the list is the pretty stash that is no way shape or form is mine looking like that. And all of the very pretty colors. Oh heck now I just drew a blank on everything else with thinking about all the pretty fabric. Everyone is getting great packages. Oh, that reminds me I forgot to put my card in my package and I truly don't think I put my screen name on it.Ok I know stick a cork in it Deborah signing off Good Night

I love my bottle from Mexico with some Grand Marnier.

oh.....so you WERE paying attention to me hahahah......I told ya'll she hits that bottle!:p

Many thanks to my pal for June, Sibi. I unwrapped my package to find a very pretty photo storage box -- what a great idea for sending a pal package. I can't imagine how she managed to get all the goodies in this box. First out was treats for the fur babies -- these had to be opened before I could do anything else. There were also treats for me -- bubble gum balls and chocolate covered pretzels. Also included were Mary Englelbreit pen and pad, a pin cushion jar with buttons (I needed a pin cushion!), four fat quarters and a couple of pretty girls on squares, some scrapbooking supplies and a very cute tape measure.

Great package from my SP for June.

Betty Boop - Brenda Starr - great guesses, although they are: beeeeeeeeeep - wrong!!! But yes, a river IS involved. Cartoon character's sidekick and best friend is Sluggo. Now, that's giving everything away except for the firmie's contents!!!

My SP shows she received her box on Monday,but I haven't seen a post or heard from her yet. I've never seen a post on here,sure would like to know is she received it. She may be a newbie.

the 'tree in the box' icon is right between the 'globe with red x' and the 'film strip' icon when you look across the top of the quick reply box. i ususally click on the 'go advanced' button next to the 'post quick reply' button to write my message and attach a picture because it seems to work better.

jess i truly hope that you can get some relief from your doctor visit. it is no party when you are sick and acting badly to your meds.[ATTACH=CONFIG]342170[/ATTACH] i offer my prayers for a speedy recovery.

the international packages usually take 7 to 10 days to arrive. usually you will not get any delivery info once the package leaves u.s. soil when you use the p.o. for mailing. i am not sure how it works if you use another method such as ups or fedex.
