    That you luv!!! Yep bb - it gets rough if there are not enough swappers, if swappers leave selvage edges, if squares aren't square or are too wonky or off grain. I do return fabric that isn't acceptable, so it could be hard to guarantee it.

    So...sapdoggie...what do we have to do to get you to start a swap???

    Well .............. I would have to think long and hard about that. There are so many people who are already good at swapping. Not sure the work schedule would allow it.

    But, I am flattered you asked

    And f course the real reason to not do it - THERE ISN'T ENOUGH CHOCOLATE IN THE WORLD FOR THE THREE OF US

    The best laid plans of mice and men .....

    Now how that would be a job- two swaps in one house would equal mass confusion

    I can just see the faces of the swappers when they got the "other" blocks instead of the theme they sent

    Now that is a thought- combine both swaps and set them for every other month and just have 6 a year- not twelve ( 11 after taking the December break. )

    Don't know about withdrawal - but it would give more time to get things in on time and pay attention to the cutting

    Your post office would really miss you every month

    I figured y'all could use a laugh today!!!

    32 Truths for Mature People

    1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

    2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

    3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

    4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

    5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

    6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

    7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on # 5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

    8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

    9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

    10. Bad decisions make good stories.

    11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

    12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.

    13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.

    14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this - ever.

    15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?

    16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.

    17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

    18. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.

    19. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.

    20. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.

    21. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the heck was going on when I first saw it.

    22. I would rather try to carry 10 over-loaded plastic bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.

    23. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.

    24. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

    25. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?

    26. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!

    27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.

    28. Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year?

    29. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.

    30. As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate bicyclists.

    31. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

    32. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet my ass everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!
