I am so happy that you received a wonderful package and Mtquilter09 is such a generous soul. I was smiling just reading your post -- this is what it's all about. :thumbup:

Oh I like this tip! I have all that leftover graph paper from DS's math classes, and I have all kinds of crayons and colored pencils already.

Robyn will be praying for your pain to leave and your financial situation. Praying for a quick recovery so your life can get back to normal.

mimom glad to see your post. I asked about you earlier, I didn't think you did the swap this month.

I still haven't caught up on all the posts I missed while on the retreat.

Oh dang Hav! Did you swallow it? LOL So far that's never happened to me. But nope, I have never had a problem with them just gluing back in, thank goodness! My regular mailman is off today and so far the sub hasn't ran. Sometimes they don't at all and we have to wait until the next day to get any mail. Sad, but true. And I just KNOW he has my pkg!

Oh no! Will you be able to file for unemployement or SSI Disability to help out? I am so sorry you are suffering physically and now financially, too.

Yes I can apply for unemployement. My employer said that there will be no problem with them on it. Like I said they have been very good to me. SSI disability I don't know about. I go to the Dr this week and will ask them what they think is going to happen with every thing that is going on. I still have so many other issues with my medical that they want me to get seen by other specialist for diagnosis. They also told me last week that they want me to have a cardio work up done now.

The rose panel says "Gather Ye Rosebuds While Ye May" across the bottom. She also made me a darling kitty pincushion (it's purrfect) and a very pretty fabric organizer. Also, because I said I like to receive something local, she sent a block kit from a local shop hop. Oh and I almost forgot the quilt block pattern. Saying it once isn't enough so . . . thank you, thank you, thank you!

That tea cup pincushion is so cute.
