March/Easter Gift Swap

[leslierf]

A note for future swap partners:
I can not leave my home much, so my gifts usually come to you via QVC.
I cannot add personal notes, so if you see a QVC box,
you will know that your partner might be me.

So I won't be able to help out if anyone gets left out... We are miliatry and not being paid. Wonderful. Anyhow hopefully the nimrods in congress can figure something out so my family can buy food and other various necessities.

I hope they get it straightened out soon! I really think Congress and the President should be the first ones to give up their paycheck, but that will never happen!
We are supposed to be getting a huge tax refund next week, and we need it badly! I really hope it comes through!

Such is life, we already filed our taxes and got them back, but I have read that they wont be doing anymore refunds until it is all settled as well as not paying federal employees. I just don't get it, how do you take pay away from families like us. We were forced to move overseas and now they are taking our pay?!

It's just crazy!

Dont' get me started on the government. Holly, I hope they get it straightened out for you. I'm sure congress and mr. obama (I just cant bear to call him the president) went to the bank with their paychecks this week and every other week. But anyway, I think we have it staight and everyone who sent will recieve. But thank you for the offer.

Now remember me....I am still in the holding mode.
And I

accidently deleted my address.

I think a reasonable amount of time has passed for anyone who hasn't shipped to have gotten back with me (not including those on hold

) so here is the message I sent out:

Hello

I never heard back from you on sending your gift out so you have been removed from this months swap. The gift that would have been sent to you has now been sent to the person you were supposed to send to. If you would like to try again sometime feel free to join us

Sound OK for future use?

Leslierf and babymakes6 your gifts have been reassigned.

wegotchickens your gift shipped on March 25. your gift recipient is out of town and isn't there to see if it has arrived yet.

Hope you all have a great weekend! I'm going outside

 

[babymakes6]

Thanks, Bock!

Since this one ran a little late, April and May's swap will be combined and then we will start up a new one in late May for June.

Here's the next one
