I think you did a great job with the organization of the swap. Don't think for one minute that it is your fault. And, I like the surprise element of not knowing who our partner was. In my opinion, that's what made it so much fun.

And, congrats on the new baby!!

I would suggest at least a sign up list posted on the first page of the thread for the next swap to show who all is participating at least. That would help a bit. Sorry to the folks that didnt get a gift, that really doesn't say much for Christmas spirit

I have a few ornaments left from when I got one for yappyfingers

They're not all the same as hers, but I would be delighted if someone who did not receive theirs marlinchaser, sunnychooks, smom, et al ) would pm me with their mailing address so I could send them one.

Let's remember the mail service around the holidays can be frantic. They could have been mailed and are delayed or unfortunately lost. Let's not start getting "grinchy" and assuming the worst. I love mine and hope the ones from class made it safely I know some did, they've been posted on the other page.

well I am home now and there is no package.. I am ok... I am still wanting to do swaps.. LOL anyone for a valentines swap>> maybe we can make this one public??

Sorry took so long to get back to this thread.

First THANKS to those that offered to send to those that didnt get it is a nice jesture, but that would just be more burden on those that did follow through with thier part of the DEAL. My

comment was directed at those that got to enjoy what they got and did not follow through with thier part of the DEAL, hope you enjoy whatever you got.

Second sdshoars THANK YOU,

I know it takes a good deal of time and effort to organize a swap of any kind. I hope you didn't take my comment as a bad thing towards you. There is no way of ensuring that everyone does what they say they will, other than having all sent to you and you resend them, which would be Too Much to expect anyone to have to do to keep the few bad eggs honest.

I did like doing my ornament/gift and hope that it made it to its recipient in 1 piece, and would be first in line to do another swap, the anticipation of going to the mailbox was worth joining(almost it did get old though). And just to let those that think knowing who your trading with would make the outcome different, I participated in the EGG swaps, and sent out more packages than I got back, but I didnt feel it was worth the trouble of going back through 100's of pages to find who hadnt sent me my eggs.
