    I don't know, I do know I have to wave goodbye as I jump off of it. My SP packaged arrived today.
    Hope you get your soon, and it was worth the wait.

    My family also follows the custom of money in a wallet or a purse, It's good luck for both the giver and receiver.
    It also means that you will always have money in your wallet or purse.

    Unless there's something waiting for me when I get home, I'm still on the bench with you. :)

    I usually keep my opinions to myself. But, I have to say this. I think that is just plain wrong for people to not send out their packages in a timely matter. I know..I know..life does get in the way at times. I have stage 4 cancer..and I still manage to get my package out on time.
    Those left on the bench are having their feelings hurt. This is totally uncalled for.
    Lori has done such a fabulous job with the swap. Not only does she coordinate the swap, she also keeps things going by sending out PMs for verifications. She has to send out way to many PMs.
    Now I have left off steam about this...
    If you sign up..follow through with your committment.
    Peace and Blessings,

    I understand why my SP was a little delayed in her package - life certainly seemed to get crazy in the midwest recently! I'm just looking forward to its arrival. :D

    If that is where she lives, I certainly can understand her delay. I hope she is doing okay and hasn't suffered any loses.

    I may be wrong and speaking WAY out of turn, but wasn't the mail date BEFORE the tornados in the mid west? I am guilty of mailing on the last day because "life got in the way" but I did get it out by the deadline. My package arrived to me in a timely manner, was an awesome package, and I am most appreciative, but I am sitting out June, not gonna follow the thread, because I am offended for those still on the bench. I know many will say/think that I have my nerve and that's okay, we all have opinions. I will miss this swap and am probably punishing myself, but at least I won't get "worked up" over irresponsibility in June. That being said, you guys have fun in June, I know I'll be sorry and miss you, but this is the right choice for me.

    I am glad you express your feelings about this. I don't think you are speaking out of turn. I sent my package out on the deadline. I got mine in a timely matter also. I agree with you totally. It isn't fair to the participants nor Lori!

    I love sending also..It isn't the receiving that matters to me.
