    Good morning everyone - I am so hopeful that my sp will receive her package today - it's been on a 10 day tour - hopefully today it will finally arrive at it's final destination.

    joyed putting it together.
    I am in other swaps this month and am going to miss this one.
    What a beautiful package you mailed to your Secret Pal! All of the handmade items and fabrics are so lovely! The added treats are a nice touch, too!

    Sorry to hear about your Mom but glad to hear that you and your family are there to comfort her.

    It's not too late to reconsider joining us in October! If not, I sure hope you will join us again soon!

    Best Wishes to you and your family!!!

    Koko, I am so sorry for your mother and for all who love her. I hope that you have found a caring hospice. My sister has worked in that area for decades and I know how important it is for the one who is ill but also for family members. You are all in my prayers.

    koko, am in the exact same boat as you only my mother broke her hip yrs ago but she has lung cancer now and is in hospice but I take care of her here at home. So my heart and prayers go out to you as well. Hugs
    I am saying prayers for both of you and your families.

    Oh, Lori, I am so sorry about Marty. You are a good friend and I only hope you are taking care of yourself, too. Will give you a jingle later.

    Ok haven't been on the board for a few days, so sorry to hear everyones news, will be thinking of you all.

    Thought I would start to post some clues as to who my SP package is on its way to. It was posted over a week ago so should be through customs by now and making its way to a zip code that has a total of 23.

    New clue tomorrow.

    Awesome swaps being received.
    Sorry to hear of so many hurts and illnesses. Prayers to all that things turn around for each and everyone of you. (((HUGS)))
    Have not been on the board too much. Daughter had her second cancer surgery and still having some issues with hearing. Will be going for radiation in Oct.
    I am still on the bench Lori, but I know my pal mailed the pressie on Sept 10. It is probably sitting in customs. My pal is a newbie and I know she is worried that my pressie hasn't come yet. (She had a friend send a note of inquiry, so sweet of her). Having brownies and chocolate milk as I wait. Dar
