Kristi! There is something wrong with our postal System!! ! Same with me. More than once this year I got cards a month late! I just hate that for the girls who make these wonderful cards.
Linda I got your 4th of july card today. Still no sign of Atc.

Yes Connie you are so right.

Thanks Connie for letting me know that my July card did arrive. The vintage "Pineapple" ATC
I made you is still floating around out there somewhere and I hope it does arrive but I did make
you another ATC and it will be on its way to you tomorrow. I am so sorry that the p.o. did not
get the first one to you in a timely manner. Had fun making a second one and hope you like
it.

It isn't just there Connie, unfortunately.
We can just hope it gets to where it is supposed to go.

Thanks so much Connie for letting me know it finally arrived. I was really thinking it was going
to be "lost in space" forever. I always knew the pineapple meant "Welcome" but when I
checked a little further on how that came to be and even came across that castle in Scotland
with a pineapple on top, it really caught my interest. I too LOVE scrabble and I've been waiting
forever to find a project to use those tiny scrabble stickers on, so I knew this was it. r
I actually came on here to tell you I mailed your replacement ATC today and you should have it
by Friday. You deserve two after waiting all this time.
Thanks everyone for the kind words. I'm constantly inspired by all the different ideas all of
you are always sharing in your works of art!

Thank you Linda! I will have a pair!!
Darlene, your right! is is everywhere!! I called the post office this morning, got a jolly fellow on the phone! First time ever! He is retiring next week! Another Baby Boomer gone. He said a lot people just don't take pride in their jobs like they use too! If mail is left at the wrong address and put back in the box, it is suppose to be delivered the same day. He said, the carrier will throw it in the out going mail. It goes back downtown! It is illegal to write on it. You can tape a note to it that it's not your mail.
It is still illegal to tamper with mail it is a Federal offense. that means carriers who throw away junk mail!! I am missing 3 magazines that I paid for. One is Country Woman, looks like a catalog, so the person either kept it or they carrier threw it away!!
I would never, ever send a package without a tracking number ever!! and even at that, Juile Hofmann send me a swap package last December, with a tracking #, Priority Mail. It took 3 and 1/2 weeks to get here. She re- sent another one, then her first one showed up, I felt so bad!!!. So I tracked it. It went from North Dakota to Memphis to Arlington, back to downtown Memphis, back to North Dakota but not to julie, to the post office, then was shipped back to me and it was Busted Open! Priority Mail is pretty secure for the most part! I understand out of millions of pieces of mail, most are delivered, but the ones I don't get because they are thrown away, or left at somebodys house and they throw it away, because they think its junk mail, matter to me!!!!!!! Our reg. mail carrier is good, we get other peoples mail on Mondays, on her day off! She always says she is sorry! when I tell her.

Connie write a letter to your State Congressman, tell them what happened and what was told you.
They are supposed to help their people.

So glad you liked the bonus ATC Connie. I too love watermelon, the sweeter the better. I
was surprised how fast you received it this time. I made sure it was fairly flat without too
many bumps for mailing. Love the watermelon memories you shared with you and your
grandpa.
Kristi, love your pineapple ATC, so pretty.

Kristi, I'm so happy you finally received it! And you are a far better photographer than I! I'm happy you liked the "book" and the ATC I made for you. My starting point was indeed the paper as I found it so beautiful. Couldn't put my scissors in(page) to take it apart so I figured I just had to make something with the whole page!
This was such a fun swap too! I like how we all came with different ideas!
Happy Summer my farmgirls friends!
