You should be getting mine soon. I shipped it priority so it will get there fast.

Well guess what, I've changed my mind and want to do that one too...if there is a list add me to it. With all of this mind changing these leaders have to be young, energetic, and have a good memory. (I can never lead a swap because don't meet any of those qualifications.)

Haven't been near it in a week or so. I think it feels unloved. I NEED to finish my sil's quilt...anyone wanna volunteer to finish the top for me? Just have to cut 3 strips and sew it all together...just no motivation to do her quilt. I think because I know she is going to criticise it and pick it apart and act like it is the most useless gift ever.

I know THAT feeling. I think it's why I've been putting off "certain" projects too. I know they will be the cause of grief by some..... I'll get to them though because it will make ME happy. (And those who don't cause me grief will be thrilled!!!!)

Our house is too high for the water to get to, but we had a few friends that were lower so it was helping them move furniture and gut the bottom 3 feet to replace everything that took so long. My husband works on alarm systems and went to go check out a Home Depot the other day and told me that they got 9 feet in there! I don't think they will be opening anytime soon.

Its really sad when you put so much effort into making family something and they just take it for granted. I am lucky and have family that is constantly fussing at me for not having made them anything yet LOL I am so sorry that your sister is like that. Maybe one day she will realize how much time and effort you put into things and appreciate it.

Well...the years that she has LOVED presents and pestered me to find out where I "bought" them...only to find out later they were made by me, those presents ended up in the trash, regifted, or donated. I'm going to let me brother know if she EVER thinks about getting rid of this one...he needs to get it from her and give it back to me. I have someone else who I know will LOVE it!!!

I think I should have made this one country & western since that is what a majority sent in. Lol. I love them all. Waiting on 1 more package (and I finally got mine cut...) and then the swapping begins!!! Woo hoo. That will give me about 11-14 days to swap 200 sets. Whew...I have my work cut out for me. Especially since hubby won't help and looks at me like I'm crazy when he sees me swapping. Lol. Good night y'all!!!
