    Good Morning Swappers! Did you think I had abandoned ya'll?

    Our internet has been down due to moving my husbands office/phone lines to the new house. I'm so glad it's back even though I did get a lot of cleaning done.

    I have quite a few PM's to go through this morning, then I will go back through this thread.

    Hugs!
    Suzanne

    Rec'd my wonderful package this morning with a wonderful card from Elisabrat. Thank you soooooooooo much. I love it all. I collect pin cushions. love chocolate, love it all.
    My package leaves monday to my pal. Had to wait on something special I ordered for her.
    Linda - I have to say, I have fabric but those 3 blues you sent took my breathe away, and that is the first St Patricks runner I have. And it is on my table already. The coffee is brewing now. I drink it all day, and my pincushion will be on my shelf with the others as soon as I put your name on it. Can you tell I am excited. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ROFL I Just realized the wonderful raspberry chocolate bar is missing in the picture. It was wonderful. :D

    A tablerunner, mags, three blue fbrics, post card, coffee, pincushion.

    I found the cutest fabric at my LFS yesterday! I got a lot of it so I can keep some and still gift it to my pal. Now just a couple more items and it's good to go.

    I mailed my Secret Pal's package this morning. The delivery confirmation says she should receive it on Tuesday! That seems really fast because it's going waaaayyyy across the ocean to get there!!

    Who could it be going to?!! You'll just have to wait and see!!

    Just back from the post office. My SP is getting a priority mail box full of stuff I hope she likes. The box is headed East from Ohio and should be there Tuesday or Wednesday. Oddly enough, my SP likes fabric, quilting magazines and the colors blue and purple.

    Well, mailed my secret pal package on monday and to my surprise I found it returned to me by the Post Office because I had dropped it in the mail box instead of handing it to a postal worker. I had to wait until this morning to go to the post office to actually hand it to an employee. To my surprise, she said to me, " Why did you stand in line to hand this to me you could have just put it in the slot". I explained my circumstances to her, she called the post master and I had to explain it all over. He apologized and said because it was over the 13 oz limit it must be handed to an employee, if it is under 13ozs you can just drop it in the box.
    I guess terrorists make bombs that weigh more than 13 ozs.
    But at any rate it is posted and tracking north and west of me. It should be there monday or tuesday. Hope my secret pal enjoys my choices.
