Thanks for the reminder, Ann! Barring any unforeseen blizzards, mine will be in the mail to my partner on Wednesday!

My last item arrived when I was in San Diego so I'm good to go.

I'll be picking up my last item tomorrow.

I might mention that I'm going to be away from the computer next week on Mon-Wed. Actually I'll be out of town so if anything arrives I'll post late Wed or Thurs.

I was too pooped to pack when I got home from work, but I'll work on it tomorrow and my box will be winging its way west by Wednesday (or maybe Tuesday, but that doesn't start with w).

I love this part of swaps, where we track the packages and the surprises begin!

I sent mine yesterday via UPS. I think I may have included some ash from the recent fires, as there was a lot of ash in my car yesterday, and it was blowing around the package and some of it appeared to have gotten stuck on some of the tape.

Unfortunately, I will be out of town from November 24 through December 2, but I will try to catch up with comments when I return. I'll be visiting my parents on the farm, and they do not have a computer. I might be able to check some email (my gmail account) on DB's Blackberry, however. I haven't use it yet, however, except for GPS.

I did it! It's in the mail. Packing the box was really hilarious. I was working on it upstairs and must have run up and down twenty times before it was done. The end of the packing tape kept getting stuck so I had to pick it off ten times. I had to run down and get more newspaper for packing. I had everything packed when I thought "oh I should take pictures". Take it all out of the box, run downstairs, get out the camera, take pictures, and take it all upstairs again.

Forgot the mailing label. Back down and up. Repack the box. Forgot to include the note, but could slide it in before the last piece of tape went on.

Etc. Etc. I was glad to kiss that baby goodbye! Should be there in seven days -- sooner I hope. And I hope it all makes it in one piece.

Pam, You are funny..
I just got back from town..I've got everything that's going in the package..
So I too get to do that packing dance...but I don't have stairs...so it should be a bit easier on my heart rate. LOL

There is a package taking a ride on a brown truck to who knows where. The only hint I'll give ya is that it is leaving the state of OK. LOL!

Pam what a hoot!

Mine's gone. No more worrying about it it's done!

Heading out of Canada.....that means not you Ann but guess you probably knew that! LOL

Got mine off today. Sharon, I'm still worried about every one I've sent. This one was so meager I was tempted to cheat but I knew Ann would find out and crack my knuckles.

Mine has officially been handed over to the USPS...scary...

nothin I can do know but wait..


 o
RE: Don't forget that Swap boxes are suppose.........

I got mine shipped this afternoon, should be arriving on Monday! Phew! One swap down, many more to go (hopefully). I never thought I'd be this stressed about buying presents! I truly hope my swap partner likes their loot.

RE: Don't forget that Swap boxes are suppose.........

Mine will arrive Wednesday on someone's doorstep....


 o
RE: Don't forget that Swap boxes are suppose.........

Mine's all sent. Seven working days from today, someone should hopefully be receiving their package.

Sent mine yesterday, so it should be south of here in 7 days. Jimtex, I thought the same thing but resisted the urge!
