    Kimberley - I just love that pumpkin fabric with the mice peeking out of it - it is one of my all time favorites. You received such a nice package :thumbup:

    I just ran across this and though I would share it with everyone doing the swap.

    It is good to be a woman:

    1. We got off the Titanic first.
    2. We can scare male bosses with mysterious gynecological disorder excuses.
    3. Taxis stop for us.
    4. We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.
    5. No fashion faux pas we make could ever rival the Speedo.
    6. We don 't have to pass gas to amuse ourselves.
    7. If we forget to shave, no one has to know.
    8. We can congratulate our teammate without ever touching her rear end.
    9. We never have to reach down every so often to make sure our privates are still there.
    10. We have the ability to dress ourselves.
    11. We can talk to the opposite sex without having to picture them naked.
    12. If we marry someone 20 years younger, we are aware that we will look like an idiot.
    13. We will never regret piercing our ears.
    14. There are times when chocolate really can solve all your problems.
    15. We can make comments about how silly men are in their presence because they aren't listening
    anyway.

    Priority mail and the 70 cents for delivery comfirmation. I'd love to know if there is a better(cheaper)way! I used the box that Lori said to use in an earlier post. My postal lady said I used the cheapest way....
    Hi,

    If you print your own priority online with USPS.com you get a price break, AND free confirmation. Every little bit helps.

    LOL. If you keep tackling that mailman (hopefully he's cute), he'll NEVER bring your package because that will mean the end of the tackles.

    That pumpkin fabric is soooo adorable. Do you know who makes it or what the name of the pattern is?
