Somewhere I asked about belonging to this but I don't recall ever getting anything on who my sister would be. It's very possible that I got it and it got lost as I have had numerous problems with my PC losing mail, if that is the case I am so sorry. If not I may not have sent my request to the right person or my silly PC might have sent the request to the Moon, anyway ... I would like to belong please send me a secret sister.
Thanks! Lainey Lou #3848
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we might as well dance.

I received my March gift full of exciting things, I will write more later. Thanks so much for being my Secret Sister. The rose tote bag is beautiful and it holds all the items you sent. I did take a picture of it. I am still off of my home computer though. I loved the antique post card and lavender one also . Thanks again and hugs to you.
I want to be in the new Secret Sister for May please.

I want to tell my secret sister that I have received the great packages she sent me this past month! I had back surgery and ended up taking longer to recuperate in Ohio and did not get home until last night. I spent a week in the hospital and another 1 and 1/2 day this week before I was able to travel back to Indiana.
I opened the great packages last night and was so surprised! THANK YOU and I will get pictures and hopefully posted soon. I must say back surgery is not a picnic and having rods and screws in your back along with a long (10 inches or more) incision in your back can be a pain as well as an inconvience! I live by BLT, no bending, no lifting, no twisting and will be living by that for 3 to 6 months! What a great time, right?
I also want to tell my secret sister that I owe her some mail and will be getting it out to her next week! I AM BEHIND in all my commitments! But I do plan to stand behind them.
Thank you,
Vera-Ellen

To my wonderful SS the mailman delivered your package today and Thank you Thank you. I have to know how did you find out that cardinals are our favorite bird. My husband was equally excited over them, and the scarf you went over the top. I have already worn, never had one and I really enjoy it. Thank you again. I have loved everything and I keep all your cards on my dresser, it's nice when your having a bad day and you can look a see a card sent from a friend and how it lifts your spirits. |

I haven't received anything from my SS since February. I believed I posted a thank you for the book mark and card from January! I also have sent multiple packages and cards to my SS and haven't seen anything posted from her so I hope she received the packages and that she is okay. I don't want to be a burden to anyone, but I feel that if you sign up to be a SS be sure that you have the time and energy to follow through as it is hurtful to be on the other end and not remembered or thoought of.

Hey we should make a list of ladies that join swaps and then they DON'T follow thru and THEN put their names altogether and let them do their own swapping LOL. This way us ladies who LOVE swapping won't be disappointed anymore. What you all think lol.

Joan you've read my mind. I never received a thing from my ss and don't know if my last gift arrived to my ss as I haven't heard yet. Many of these ladies are in every swap going on. I wish everyone could be honest but that's only in a perfect world. :/

Cheryl you got some crazy cool stuff. I love when everyone shows what they have received. Gives me ideas. Yeah its a bummer not receiving but have always enjoyed swaps. When I'm in a bummer one I take a break for awhile.

Darlene you put a smile on my face today. I came home from delivering cupcakes I made this morning for a local care facility for their annual Easter party and found a box full of Easter goodies FOR ME! I appreciate your thoughtfulness. Thank you.
Ladies don't forget to post if you received anything from your ss. Thanks are always appreciated plus it lets us know that you got it. My March gift was sent five weeks ago and don't know if it arrived.
