Just a quick and brief update.
I have not yet felt up to making something special for my SP, as
well as I have not tore open the envelope to repack and add the
stuff I left out.
This will get done I HOPE by this weekend.
Broke down and went to the Dr today because I was not feeling
any better. The results are:
No flu, and no Strep throat. What I do have is a bad case of the
"bug" that is going around plus a double dose of ear infection, and
mild sinus infection.
I honestly can't remember (outside of having surgeries) when I
was so wiped out of energy.
Hope to be back to a semi-normal (? if that is even possible for me)
functional state soon.

Sorry you have been feeling un-well, Louise. I can relate as I have been I'll for the past two weeks and even though I am better, I still have no energy and can't shake the sinus headache. Hope you get well quickly!!

Here is my experience with re-gifting. For one of my first swaps, my sp said that she like purples and flowers and she wanted a mug rug. So, I got busy and chose some purple floral fabrics. I made a mug rug for her and used special machine stitches for quilting. I put a lot of thought into it. The very next month, I saw a photo that she had given it to her sp. My feeling were hurt because I followed all her likes and she still gave it away.

SP, sit tight. It's only the 7th. I haven't put your package together yet, but I will very soon. Will probably mail on Monday.
Had a very good meeting with the new lawyer yesterday and we left feeling more confident than ever before. That was followed by a good meeting with the SBA inspector. Fingers crossed! We also got in contact with two builders who do modular homes and are hopeful that we will find an affordable solution. I had to get the assessed value from the city and county and was shocked that our teeny weeny cottage on a 40x100 plot was valued at just under $450,000! More than a little crazy -- and I cannot imagine anyone paying that much for it pre-storm.
