Description:

I was recently dumped, and I'm not gonna lie- I feel pretty crappy. Luckily, the next day I got quite a few swaps in my PO Box, and it really cheered me up. And I was thinking, why not make a swap designed specifically for cheering your partner up on a blue day? Some ideas on what to send could be: Junk food snacks, jokes, bubble bath, a foot soak, uplifting cards, comfy socks, a chick flick (while I cannot legally support bootlegs, I WILL say they are pretty cheap....) etc. Try to send at least 4 items. Just put in whatever you think would make YOU happy to open on a day where you just want to crawl into bed and forget the world. Newbies allowed, but I will be checking swappers for anyone who looks suspicious, and I will ban those I feel will flake. I am willing to angel but, I shouldn't have to... Have fun, guys, and SMILE :)

This will be a regional swap due to postage, unless I get a lot of international swappers wanting to join!

EDIT: I gave you guys 2 more days to send to your partners: I didn't want to put the deadline on a Saturday, in case you can't make it to the post office in time, you have until Monday

Question....can I send your mom?

HeidiJean 08/ 1/2011 #

@NurseKelly I think that violates what you're allowed to send via USPS. And stop acting silly before I ban you, dear sister :P

LOL @ you two! ha ha

This sounds like such a fun, fun, fun swap! I can hardly wait! There are so many ways we can be 'dumped' (men or friends) or 'dumped on' (to state it nicely) lol. At times like that everyone can use a pick me upper!

I love your idea of this swap! Can't wait!

I'm excited!!! :D

Thanks for being open to newbies :) As the only chick in my house I would love a girlie package

NurseKelly 08/ 4/2011 #

Okay, serious question--can you put some sort of price guidline up? $5-$10...? $10-$15? Gimme an idea what everyone should spend....

HeidiJean 08/ 4/2011 #

@nursekelly I tend to dislike price guidelines, because you can put a lot of thought into something cheap, but I DO understand that it's crappy to spend a lot of money only to get something thoughtless back. I'd say maybe $5-10? If I do another swap like this, I'll put in a price min, but some people may have already set this swap up, so that'd be a little unfair, ykwim?

HeidiJean 08/ 5/2011 #

@dalbright YES, he dumped me! Don't worry- as soon as I get your letter, you shall get the juicy gossip! YARG!

Can we send new/unused makeup??????????

NurseKelly 08/ 5/2011 #

Kesha, I can't speak for the coordinator, but I wouldn't mind getting make-up in my package. :)

HeidiJean 08/ 5/2011 #

@Kesharockstar101 it's senders choice- for some people, putting make-up on when they feel crummy makes them feel better, so I don't think anyone would be opposed!

poetrobotmommy 08/ 6/2011 #

When are we going be assigned our partners?

HeidiJean 08/ 7/2011 #

@Poetrobotmommy it doesn't give the host the option until midnight... I'll do it now...

poetrobotmommy 08/ 7/2011 #

So where do we go to see who are oartners are?

HeidiJean 08/ 7/2011 #

@poetrobotmommy on the top right there is a yellow box and it says "see the partners you send to"

poetrobotmommy 08/ 7/2011 #
