Still waiting list:
Jonni13 - sent hers out & it's been received, now waiting for her's from TEACHER37

the last word i had from teacher37 was that there was a delay, and she was sending out the package. i don't have a phone or email for her, but wanted to give her time to get it out ('cause she said she was going to send it) but didn't want tina to have to wait. so... triss and i decided that tina should have a "while you are waiting" gift.

sort of a "we're sorry you are last, but you aren't least" kind of thing. when i hear from teacher again, i'll let y'all know. in the meantime, i'm hoping that tina will get her "real" box soon.

jiffymouse can i send tina a gift as well cause of her box not getting to her if so please send me the info that is need to send my items off

I got it. now you all have to wait for the pictures until I can get myself together.
Thank You Teacher37/Jacqui. It is a very good gift.

It got there!! YAYAYAYAYAY!
IwannaseIwannaseeIwannasee!

ditto

Here it is. See?

There are two packs of copper plant markers w/pens
A cute shopping list pad w/matching magnets
A chive starter kit
Daily skin shield (much needed)
A recipe (love chocolate)
A little succulent plant I think is called string of buttons.
And a really nice pot and snail stand.
The pot has a cool crackle finish on the inside. I don't think I want to mess that up with a plant. I will find something else to use it for.
I will have to look up the plant. A lot of mine didn't make it through the freezes this year. The ones that did the hungry critters finished off. It has not been a kind year to my yards and it is not done yet. Come on rain!!!

Thank you so much, Jacqui. I never gave up and I'm not an impatient person so all is cool.

Very nice gifts! I am so glad you got it Tina!

Very nice gifts.

cool gifts

Very Nice Tina!!! I love the pot too!!!

I am so glad that you got the box!!
Some very nice things, and I also love the pot. I would just have to set it out for desplay, not plant either!
I really like that plant to!! And she must have had it packed really well! Very good shape!!!!

I'm so glad it got there. I'm so sorry it took so long. I have had a really rough few weeks. My oldest son moved out last week, my youngest son graduated and announced he is moving out next month and my husband just got a new job that will take him out of town for the next two months. I was busy with the graduation and trying to keep myself together all the while trying not to think about how unbelievably quiet my house is going to be this summer....for the first time in a long time. Anyway, I'm so glad you like everything. I believe the plant is called a Crassula. I'm a sucker for any kind of succulent too. Let me know how you liked the chocolate cake!:)

another successful swap completed! when this is full, i'll lock it up and we'll go from there. thank you all for a great game and we will do this again in late summer!

I can't wait for the next one
This was my first Gift Swap and it has been a lot of fun for me!!!

I have such a vivid picture in my mind of Shirley being the last recipient. They would have to carry her out feet first.

Tina, that's funny!!

Please, don't imagine such a picture as that!!!

Very coooooooool stuff. I love that snail pot too!

Whoever gives to Shirley in the next game PLEASE send as fst as you can! We don't want to have to call the medics

It is sad to see this end but I am so happy that we will be having another one before long! Can't wait!

Give her to me, it takes me weeks to get to the post office

I'm more impatient than Shirley is I bet.

That could be trouble

and --> Penny Sending Piece by Piece to Shirls might not be a bad Idea!!! Can you imagine her Getting a box or envelope everyday to open?? HMMMMMMMM !!!!

You are all too funny!!

and nutz

and scary

and I'm shocked!!

Cindy, if you get my name just send me another man without his shorts on this time!!!!!!!

So many of you want to get my name maybe you ought to sell raffle tickets, or something?!!! .......You gals scare me!!!!

If you need something to occupy your time in here until the next swap....you could listen to, and watch, Cindy sing??!!

Check out my PB and click on Favorite Videos....She will be the first one!!!!!

Or worse send her empty boxes saying this isnt it yet inside! Aaaaah!!

Wrennie, that's too cruel!!

They are all pickin, pickin, pickin on me Triss!!!

I didn't intend to start a whole "Picking on Shirley" topic. But I'm awfully glad you are a good sport, Shirl.

I meant...with his shorts off!!...I'm sure you knew that though!!

Oh, Wrennie, Wrennie, Wrennie......I shall NOT forget this!!:

(..Or worse send her empty boxes saying this isnt it yet inside! Aaaaah..)

Always!!! Doesn't anyone need to worry about me getting upset, cause I'm always 'up for fun', and I think all of you are fun!! and funny!!!

Yeah...well...Wrennie will never know either...

So glad it finally got there for u ,
very nice gifts
