I’m hoping my person got her package. It was sent awhile ago, but I’ve not heard anything from her. She’s not a frequent poster here, but she’s not even responded to the emails I sent.
I can only hope the next swap I join goes a little better on my end…I hate it when life pokes it’s nose into my yarn habit.
I have a package and am point the BIG finger of shame to the mail man. Why it wasn’t in my box on Saturday is beyond me.
But I did get some nice yarn. There are 2 skeins each of the lion fun fur in saphire and the Dream.
I also got a package of needle coils and stitch markers. I’m excited to try the socks in the book.
I am so happy and excited to tell you that my swap fairy Mary (mwhite) came through for me big time. I arrived home from visiting a friend and there was a box waiting for me. It was so full of goodies, yarns, knitting accessories and even a pot of narcissus to bring me a touch of spring. What a kind and generous person she is. After a let down by my original partner, Mary has really made my day. I will take a photo and post again tomorrow.
I am so happy that you finally had a great package delivered by your own special fairy.
Sounds like you have been spoilt rotten . You deserve it
Thanks MWHITE for being a lovely fairy . You are a wonderful person
:flirt: Loved helping with this situation and I was so totally blown over yesterday, when I got home, in my mailbox was a pattern for the precious doll, cradle/bag and sleeping bag that Susan did for her granddaughter. I hurried into the house and quickly emailed her to let her know, lo and behold, she’d gotten her pkg. from me on the same day! :teehee: Life is so funny sometimes, isn’t it? :psst: Everyone, Susan is a SUPER SWEETIEPIE!
That is so sweet and thoughtful. I just have to say that i agree with you Mary.
Sue is a wonderful person and i am very lucky to have her as a friend.
It is lovely to have a happy ending:woot:
Thanks for the compliments Mary and Rita. I think both of you are the kind of people one would like to have as friends in real life. Too bad we are all so far away.
Anyway as promised, here are my photos of all the goodies I received from my swap fairy Mary (mwhite). She really spoiled me. Thanks again Mary.
Silly girl, WE ARE REAL FRIENDS IN REAL LIFE!!! I compare the “Virtual” friendships like my faith in God…can’t see 'em but they’re always there for you! MAUH!!! Mary
You are really right Mary, I guess I should have said the friends I actually see on an almost daily basis. I have seen a few VIRTUAL friendships formed on message boards go very sour, and I guess that is why I to think of them a little differently.
What a wonderful package I love the yarn and the rowcounter is so nice. You may have to post a pick when your plant comes to bloom
Friends are people who are there for you , who listen and make you laugh . A good morning and how are you email a day can go a long way:)
