    I received a WONDERFUL package from Crispy_Frog today. She must have memorized my profile because she included so many of my favorites and my favorite colors. In the box were a magazine, 2 fat quarters and a charm pack, tulip bulbs, a pattern, tissues, a measuring tape, comfy socks, treats for my fur babies, and a beautiful Jim Shore figurine (LOVE IT!). Thank you, Crispy!

    well went to the dr and I am improved, still working on it though at home. I purchased a bike for exercise and other things they had at the Pt place to use at home.
    On another note and not such a good one, I will be heading home to Indy either Sunday or Tuesday, one of my best friends (we have been friends since Kindergarden-lots of years) her 37 old daughter took her life on Monday, which was like a daughter to me too. Anyway not sure when the funeral is yet but I will be heading home for the arrangements.
    May she rest in peace, I will miss her so much.
    I will be gone for a few days but will still check in, so just have fun and let me know when everything is mailed and received.

    Thanks
    Verna

    question for the ones who ship international. Can you tell me how you ship and about the price range you all pay for it? Do you use envelopes or boxes or what? I am just curious about how much it costs.

    Thank you

    Ladies....there are some amazing packages being received this month! Enjoy those goodies. I am still fighting kidney stones...these are horrid!

    I did get my package out to my SP today it is going north of me and one of her favorite colors is one of mine, she likes reading like me as well.

    when I ship from U.K. To US I use padded envelopes (little bigger than A4). If I have plenty of time (7-10 days) it isn't partially tracked (which country it is in) and costs around £9. For faster delivery (3-5 days) and more detailed tracking it is around £15. You can do 48 hours but not tried that. I tend to post early and use the 7-10 day option and I've not had any problems yet. I've posted to the US 3-4 times for different things

    there are only 4 of you left that has not received. Soon as I hear from you I will post next months swap. Need to get it posted before I leave for Indy. Then while I am in Indy I will match everyone up with their new partner.
