Response: I haven't had the chance to look through all of my messages. I visit the site everyday in the mornings when I have the chance to look through swaps, and do ratings after I look through the mail, if I have the time. I sometimes just visit the site so that it shows that I did. I am very busy, and I do have things to do. I do have a life besides this site. If you would have taken the time to read through my profile, you would know what you needed to know as far as swaps, and anything else. If you would have been patient, I would have answered you when I had the chance. I am working at a new place, and that's taking up much of my time lately. I know that mail is sometimes lost, and is sometimes late. I would have been happy to have sent you something, if I had known you hadn't received your swap. I am answering your message now that you sent to me, and it, and this message from you, doesn't sound very pleasant to me. You didn't need to rate me as you did, and you didn't need to leave a message on my profile. You could have just waited patiently. I do these swaps for enjoyment. I don't do these swaps for ratings, and I'm not concerned about ratings. I'm concerned about whether the swap has been received, and I know that we all have lives, and we all get busy, and I know ratings will happen when we all can rate. As I said in my message to you, I'll send out your swap on Monday since you didn't receive the other, as the post office here is closed until Monday. This is in response to what you've added. I'm not talking about the time you had to wait for your swap. I'm talking about waiting patiently for me to respond to your message. I wouldn't rate the way you've rated. I think all of this is very petty. You left a message on my profile about this swap today, instead of waiting for me to answer you. I don't care if you believe me about the mail being lost, or not. I've had mail become lost before, and I've had mail become lost, and haven't received mail since I've joined this site. I'm not concerned with ratings. That isn't important to me. I enjoy sending out swaps to make others happy, and to brighten their day, and to let them know that they are being thought about. I don't need a rating to tell me the kind of swapper I am. I think it's both of us that are responsible for finding out about whether the swap has made it where it needs to be.

Response: I didn't mail it late, and you, and I have communicated privately about this. I didn't need to communicate with you before I had mailed this because I hadn't mailed it late. I have no control over the mail when it's taken to the post office, and mail is mailed in many different ways. It depends on the location, and where you live. I don't have to explain myself to you. I mailed it to you, and that is what matters to me, and I'm not going to admit to doing something that I didn't do, and that is mailing it out late. I don't care if you believe me, or not. I'm not going to be bothered by this because it isn't important. I think this is petty. I hope you're well, and having a wonderful weekend.

Response: I'm happy you loved the stamps, and it had been marked as sent on the 25th because I had forgotten to mark that I'd sent it, and I didn't realize that until the 25th. I can't do anything about when it's postmarked. That has to do with the post office. I don't have any control over that. I wouldn't running late, and I wish you would have sent me a message before rating so you would have known. Things do happen, and things don't always happen as planned. You're welcome. I hope you're having a wonderful week, and hope you have a wonderful weekend.
