Hi Deb!

My husband and I are the teachers that Terry mentioned. I received a letter from her a few weeks ago, and was SO excited! I had her as a freshman English student, and my husband Fred taught her how to drive in driver's ed.! I sent her a package right away, and apparently she received it from what she said in today's post. That's the greatest surprise I've gotten from a card swap so far! Thanks!!

I saw a posting today by Terry Whited about the cards from the swap. How cool that she was able to reconnect with a couple of teachers through cards I received from the card swap and passed on to her.

Hey guys, I got a really nice note from a gal that got my card out of Balt's package. She just happened to be from the local AF base too - so how cool is that!

Good news...cards arrived after all. One of my neighbors saw the package and pulled it in for safekeeping. Took a brief look and they are beautiful! Thanks everyone!

Hello everyone - I got my cards a couple of days ago but was too busy to get here to the forum and tell everyone thanks! I glanced at them but still have them in sitting on my desk in the ziplock. I am planning on doing up a couple of care packages tomorrow and will attempt to get to the PO as well.

Hope you all can join me for Swap #12 Halloween/Fall which I am hosting - I still have plenty of slots left.

Hi All

Hubby brought home the mail and there was a box, I wasn't expecting anything-but he handed it to me, and it was the cards! Yay! I am going to try to send them out before we leave to go to SD and Canada. Very cute cards!!! I know my boys are going to love them, and will probably fight each other for them! They were hoping for some cards, but I didn't have any to go out with the last box I sent them, so I put some notebooks, pens and envelopes in there, with a note about these! I didn't think I would get them in time to send them before we go, so was going to put them in the next box, but they get an extra shipment this time!

Thanks!

Heidi

Please read my comment on "tips" and it is not necessary to send me money.

But I do thank you for your thoughtfullness.

Let's be careful for future swaps.

Vicki and All,

Don't worry about it, Vicki--snafus happen to all of us on occasion!!

I hope everyone will read my post on the "Tips for Hostesses" thread about the extra money it is costing Deb to mail us our cards back--she had to use flat rate boxes instead of envelopes, so it's an additional $4-5 for each package. Please consider reimbursing her for this added expense, as that's a lot of extra money for one person to be stuck with on our behalf.

Thanks!

I would like to apologize to all the participants of this swap for holding it up.

I finished my cards and picked up Kaylynn's and planned on mailing them a week ago Monday. When I went to address the box, I discovered that I had lost Deb's address. I had put it in my contact list on yahoo, but I had duplicate addresses for her, so I deleted one and guess what, it was the one with the address in it, duh! I could not win on this one. I was going out of town on Tuesday with a girlfriend from high school to visit another. I planned on taking the box and mailing it when I got the address, but of course I left without it. I tried several fellow swappers to get the address before I left, but I was not having any luck. I was also having a terrible time with my yahoo email. Anyway, I heard from Deb yesterday and she had everything ready to go, so she went ahead and mailed the cards without mine and Kaylynn's. Since they are made, I am going to send them for the next swap. I am really sorry, I was ready to throw the computer, but I decided that it was better to calm down and regroup.
