No. You are not the only one. I am still waiting on 2 things from 2 seperate people. I hate to be a nuisance and keep pestering them. You never really know what is happening in another persons life. I will admit though it is frustrating as all it would take is a quick PM to let me know whats going on. I have had alot of fun with this and will continue to swap. I am pretty certian I do not owe anyone, but if I have made a mistake PLEASE let me know!

I honestly have had the WORST summer. Was looking forward to it, and having a blast making friends with all the swaps. Then S*** hit the fan, BIG TIME! I have not had much time at all to get on. Have wanted to post and apologize. I have a list of all the swaps I owe. But between moving, helping a friend that was injured during a car wreck with her mentally retarded 33 yr old. my horse and foal dying during the birthing process, my dad having health problems for 2 months (ended finally when they did a quadruple bypass) and to top it all off, started a new job and working 10 hour days. Only now is beginning to slow down. I have also stayed busy with all the little hatchlings.

If I had known all I would deal with over the summer, I never would have jumped in and made offers. I think there is only one thing I swapped for and never recieved, or should say my Granddaughter never got. I only swapped for that to help keep the chain moving.

But I AM finally working to finish and get ALL swaps sent.

I'm sorry for your troubles...but I'm not in a huge hurry for my eggs, anyway!

You can wait on the eggs until next spring, please. I am done hatching for this year. Thank you!

I know I owe BrokeDown roses, but I hadn't heard back from her in a long time...then, I heard the news...so I still have them (PLENTY) but I will probably wait until next spring to send them...until things even out with her situation...

I'm missing something also, and am disappointed because it was plants. Supposedly it was shipped but I never got anything at all, and that was over a month ago.

Thanks for the kind words Carole and SilkieChick, I really appreciate it and needed it. I have been so ready to dig a hole to hide in. I got my husband to come home really quick at lunch to check on things (we got on at same company for the great pay of Minimum Wage!) and found my horse had gotten out and was helping himself to the chicken feed. Now I am home for the day, and started working on electric fence to make sure he doesn't do it again and found the whole back side of horse fence has fallen down. Just what we wanted to find. Can't make it to get new fence post until tomorrow. Anyone for a vacation??

I could use a week in Aruba! Anyone?

My heart goes out to you for everything you've been through!! And, I would like to commend the people who stood by Sew4beans and stated that something must be wrong.....we just never know if those "no shows" had major issues. Empathy is worth its weight in gold!!

Well I had answered your pm....I said in the pm that it was bulbs not plants. We started having serious money issues and no I could not send them. (I had to sell all my chickens but 4 and I had close to 50) It was unexpected. Now we JUST got power today. We have been without power for almost a month. We have lots of hurricane damage...Gustav hit right on where we live.The Ike came shortly after and messed up some more. My garden and plants got totally wiped to the ground. I'm having a hard time even finding where stuff is planted. Now all I can say is I will send in the spring. I will go buy you new bulbs then. I'm sorry and I hope I don't sound rude but right now we have NO money to spend on anything that isn't a necessity. We had a cold front and my little one needs pants but stores aren't open and we're broke. We have no food in our freezers or refridgerators because we lost it all with no power. Now again I'm sorry...when things are better I'll send some bulbs your way...apparently they got lost in the mail. I haven't cheated anyone here and I'm sure those who I've swapped with can attest to that.

Sew4Beans so sorry to hear what your going through...I didn't forget about your cannas either. I'll send them in spring because they are completely wiped to the ground right now.

Those should be the only 2 things that are owed to anyone but by chance if anyone is forgotten for some reason just pm please.

Again I apologize if I sound rude but my stress level is through the roof and I'm frustrated...I just wanted to let it be known what was going on with me.

I wasn't trying to accuse anyone of anything. Just sad because I was looking forward to the bulbs. I specifically said plants because I wasn't trying to point fingers. Don't go buy anything. Don't worry about it. I know sh!t happens. I know money problems happen. I was just bummed. I certainly never meant to hurt your feelings.

My apologies and best wishes that your future gets brighter and things start looking up.
