    Is the trivia quiz too hard for everyone? There are some real stumpers in there for me!

    Any idea what kind of materials or theme you're going to do for your ornament this year?

    I just read on line that the usps deliveries will be slowed down and a price increase will be in effect from Oct. 3rd through the holidays. Something that took three days will now be five days to arrive. Just a little heads up for our swappers.

    Yes, I'd already been thinking postal delays would be brutal this holiday season and seeing this confirms it. And we'll get to pay more for the privilege of poorer service!
