    My partner may be off the bench as early as tomorrow. I just checked tracking info and the expected delivery date shows as tomorrow! That's amazing... my package was dropped off at the post office around 9 am on Saturday morning in NJ and has to cross 8 states before hitting its destination (state #9!), a total of about 2500 miles, and it could be delivered tomorrow! Not bad!

    I realized that this swap has so many stages for us swappers! Not sure which is the most fun ( although I guess it must be receiving and opening our packages, although sending them is an awful lot of fun too!


    1. waiting to find out who our pal is
    2. trying to find out as much information as we can about our pal, once we know who it is
    3. hunting and gathering... packing our packages to mail
    4. waiting to hear that our pal received their package and how they liked it
    5. waiting for our own package to come!
    6. Oh, and lets not forget getting to see pictures of everyone else's packages!!

    Fun on so many levels!! Right?!!
    I bet we'll be seeing lots of pictures or at least hearing about lots of packages being delivered tomorrow!

    Just seeing the sneak peak that you gave after the Ireland trip, I seriously doubt that your person was disappointed.... :shock:

    Me, too... but more than 3 states, so its not me. Now that my package has been shipped out, I'll be watching my mailbox. I'm glad my pal wasn't an early bird....then it would be all over for me and I would be thinking about April already! I'm happy to be on the bench!!

    Thank you so very much Wanda! The b/w material is perfect as the inspiration for Barb's quilt. I will always remember you when I see it. :)

    Here's the picture of all my goodies! I absolutely LOVE the paper clips!!! And I needed a new notebook - this one is so cool !
    Wow! Another great package!! I love seeing these!

    I found a few neat things for my partner today that I hope she will like. I'm trying to hit on everything that was in her list in one way or another. Now I am only waiting for one item to arrive in the mail and then I can ship it out. I sure hope I'll have everything by the end of the week because she has a March birthday (hint, hint... could it be you?!!)
    I have a march 23 birthday. could it be me????

    Sorry, Michelle... I'm afraid you were born a week too late! But don't worry, I'm sure one will be coming for you very soon... and one for me, too... and the rest of the bench sitters! I guess tomorrow is the shipping deadline, so by the end of next week, we should all be happy campers and looking forward to April sign ups!

    Have a good day. I'm off to work. I'll be looking forward to hearing who got goodies today and hopefully seeing some pictures too!
