HAVE: apology to my swap partner

17 years ago

Well someone here that is looking for a package from the man in brown should get one next week...... The only problem is that I wrapped it all up and packaged it carefully....left it at my folks office to be sent out....and forgot to put the letter in or tell who it was from..... so someone that likes to can will get a box of canning stuff from an anonymous person....who forgot to name herself girlsingardens.... who has a 3 yr old and 1 yr old helpers that make me forget where my mind has been... package will go out UPS on Monday

LOL, Stacie. I've never, ever sent out a swap box without forgetting the letter. Ever.

Boy, am I glad it's not just me.

Yep, had it all taped up and ready to go, then spied the letter and notes sitting in a neat little pile! Managed to slit the seam open and slide them in. And I usually leave a gift out as well, but that's because the box is too full!

Marcia Sorry to hear about your mother-in-law. We all totally understand. Been there and done that with my mother several years ago - it is not fun or easy by any means. I think the trade we had set up was for next month @ the fall swap.....

AM, I also smiled at the thought of you driving around, peeling tape off the box at the red lights. (grin) That pottery is lovely and the book looks very interesting, Mediterranean cooking is supposed to be very, very healthy. I don't have a scale and never have had one, now you'll probably be posting how useful it is and I'll think I need one! Take care of little Lucy, hug her for me. Hugs to you too. Annie

It must be an epidemic! I did the same thing. I had Janet's box all nicely taped up and addressed, when I looked over and saw the letter still on the table. I slit it open, slid the letter in and added one more layer of tape.

What a brain dead bunch.

I forgot to put a layer of bubble wrap on top of the items before taping up because I was so focused on not forgetting letter. But, it looks like Compumom got everything unscathed in spite of my inept packing.
