I am tied up in a knot. The kids went back to school starting today and there is no one there to give me updates.

So do I. If not I may beg you to sell me some in the fall.

No begging needed

And I thought we started school early. I go back Aug 17. The kids come back Aug 22.
Without snow days we should be done around May 19.

I have to say i'm loving this thread, just found it yesterday, don't know how i missed it in all my lurking. I'll have to get some things together for a swap.

Don't use UPS ground for anything you care about, i used to work at a ups store and every driver i know used to treat the packages like crap. We would receive packages with foot prints, crushed, dropped and thrown. Not to mention they usually don't deliver residential till the very end of their route and the back of those trucks are ovens. And they are more expensive for small boxes (say anything under 3-5 pounds depending on distance).

School did used to start after Labor Day when I was a kid but we had to wait for the Dinosaurs to take their nap to make a run for the school cave...er, room!

My DD goes back the 15th. Another week and I have to rearrange my schedule....again. Poor chickies.

OMG! I have never received an egg package that looked that bad! I would have had 10 fits!

Well, I think the box needs to be sturdier than that. I always use the priority boxes and if they are packed right, they will hold up during shipping.

Anyway, I just came here to say that I got my painted saw blades!! They were packaged great, shipped great, lived through being crammed in my mailbox and now have a nice place on the wall. Thank you Coop Scoop Boogie. I will not side trade for that last one unless you really want something that I have. I will just keep watching the swap for when it is posted again.
