I have just been back from the doctor this after noon because I have been achy and exhausted for the last couple days, Looks like I have the Swine flu (H1N1) and I am now stuck in bed for 4 or 5 days keeping my body pumped full of Tamiflu ant-viral medication. I an telling you now if you can get the vaccination do it because this sucks beyond believing. It make take me a few days to return any messages sent my way. Now back to bed, just wanted to keep everyone in the loop

Thinking I was on my own profile I responded to a letter about a package that went missing due to wrong postal code. It wasn't till I went to my profile again later I noticed the message was not there so I think I responded to a message made for whom ever's page I was lookinh at. I can't find the profile I was on so when the pesrson gets the email from me hopefully they will come here and read some this letter. Sorry, bad Jennie! Nov.12th/09

After sending out a whole bunch of swaps,(many long before their due dates) this week I think it is safe to say that things are good here and it is my fond hope they will stay that way for good.

Cheers! JennieGee

For those of you concerned about my health and ability to get things sent out in time of the new swaps I have joined:

1. The first one was sent within 2 days of partners assigned.
2. The brown and pink inches which just had it's partner's assigned will be mailed either today or Monday, it is ready to go.
3. The following have not had partners assigned yet but I have them made and ready to go all they need are addresses:

• all time fave recipes

-follow my blog

-pick 6

-embellishment exchange

-pin up girl ATC

-Senders choice ATC

-Chinese Zodiac Pig

-Hello Kitty

-We want mail!!!!

ALL OF THEM ARE MADE AND SIMPLY WAITING ADDRESSES.

I think that I have things more than under control , and look forward to the exchange, some of the ATC's are on my flicker account if you want proof that they are done or I can send the hos a photo of the item if needed, you don't need to worry about me, I do have 130 5's and 96 hearts so I think that counts for something as every one of them were mail swaps, no ON LINE swaps.

Someone asked me to date my updates and I think that is an excellent Idea (thanks!)

I am feeling much, much better now, all my swaps are sent out and I sent them airmail which I don't always do because of the cost but I wanted to get them to you folks who are waiting ASAP. I am starting to get ratings from the US, the UK and Aussie ones will be a bit longer. I am looking forward to doing some new swaps and these should be on time (barring Canada Post who are either super fast or they take forever there is no middle ground)

Thank you to all of you that were very supportive during my illness and for those that weren't I can forgive and forget and just move on.

That's all for now but I am back in action and I look forward to send things out at the right time :)

Have been ill again, I had a lumbar puncture almost a Month ago now and it won't heal completely. The doctors have put me on bed rest and on of the symptoms of leaking spinal fluid are headaches which makes me feel too ill to work on crafts in bed. I still have to spend most of my tile lying down but my head is better so I plan on crafting my brains out this weekend and mail on Mon. I have a ton of stuff here all ready to go. I will try to contact all my outstanding trades and let them know the stays of their goodies, also expect lots of extras guys for all your patience.

Have been very ill again will try to get caught up with individuals in the next few days. I have a bunch of packages that are ready to go I just haven't been able to get out of bed to mail them. So sorry guys I just don't get any kind of warning when these attacks hit.

We are back in town now, unfortunately I fell very ill on the way back and I am just out of bed again now. An 18 hour car ride with vomiting and as well as "that other stomach problem", talk about a living nightmare! It has taken a long time to recover! I plan to spend the next few days logging the huge pile of mail that I have and answering all my messages. I will also let anyone necessary if I am behind on anything, I won't know till I go thorough everything. I'll try to get through it all as fast as possible.

I will be out of town from the July 8th to the Th and probably won't have any Internet access. I will answer any mail sent during that time as soon as I can when we get back. hopefully so,e of the packages I sent out recently will have started to arrive at their destinations although the overseas ones will be a while yet.

UPDATE: ALL THE SWAPS I WAS BE HIND ON ARE NOW IN THE MAIL, IT HAS BEEN A TOUGH FEW DAYS AS i STILL FEEL LIKE I'M ONLY HALF ALIVE BUT THEY ARE DONE AND MAILED.

THE PO ESTIMATES 6 TO 8 WEEKS FOR THE OVERSEAS ONES BUT I FIND IT IS USUALLY QUICKER THAN THAT OFTEN LESS THAN A MONTH BUT I HAVE TO GIVE YOU THEIR OFFICIAL QUOTE. THE US THAT WENT IN REGULAR ENVELOPES TAKE ABOUT 2 WEEKS AND THE BIGGER ONES ABOUT A MONTH ALTHOUGH AGAIN THEY ARE USUALLY FASTER. THANKS FOR EVERYONE'S WELL WISHES AND FOR THEIR KINDNESS WITH GIVING ME ALL THE TIME I NEEDED BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE ANYONE HANGING ANY LONGER THAN NECESSARY,

l LUV YOU WONDERFUL PEOPLE!

JennieGee IMPORTANT HEALTH INFORMATION - I HAVE BEEN SEVERELY ILL THE PAST 2 AND A HALF WEEKS TO THE POINT I SPENT SEVERAL DAYS IN HOSPITAL AND THE REST OF THE TIME COULD NOT EVEN GET OUT OF BED.

THE DAY I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL WAS THE SAME DAY i PLANNED TO GO TO THE POST OFFICE SO IF THERE ARE THINGS THAT SAY THEY ARE SENT BUT YOU HAVEN'T GOT THEM THEN THEY ARE STILL HERE ,THEY WILL GO OUT TOMORROW MORNING NOW THAT I CAN SIT UP (I have mailed all the the stuff that said it had been sent today June/09, They should start swinging up in the next few weeks

I HAVE A BUNCH OF STUFF THAT IS READY TO GO, JUST NEEDS TO BE PACKAGED AND I WILL HAVE THAT IN THE MAIL MONDAY. (Dotee is gone) (Pasta is gone)

EVERYTHING ELSE THAT SHOULD BE GONE OR GOING THIS WEEK WILL BE MY PRIORITY AND AS i WAS IN A GOOD POSITION WITH EVERYTHING UP TO DATE WHEN I GOT SICK, IT SHOULDN'T TAKE TOO LONG TO GET CAUGHT UP AGAIN

IMPORTANT- IT SEEMS THAT EVERY WEEK I GET ENVELOPES WITH TEARS OR EVEN THINGS HANGING OUT OF THEM. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE POST OFFICE DOES TO THE MAIL THAT IS SO DAMAGING BUT IF YOU COULD PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO PUT SOME PACKING TAPE ON THE BOTTOM HALF OF THE ENVELOPE YOU ARE SENDING ME IT WILL HAVE A MUCH BETTER CHANCE OF ARRIVING IN ONE PIECE SO I WILL GET ALL YOUR GOODIES. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR EXTRA EFFORT.

if you have not received your swap from me would pm me first, and I'll do the same for people taking a few weeks, I don't rate 1 without messaging first, I ask you to do the same as that being so far away the mail can take up to 3 to 4 weeks from Canada.

PLEASE DON'T SEND ME ANYTHING SMELLING OF SMOKE AS I AM HIGHLY ALLERGIC!

A person who expects you to leave a note that your ill and have been rushed to the ICU is not a very kind or thoughtful person. When exactly was I supposed to leave this note, when I was passed out on the couch getting ready to go to the hospital or from the ICU itself. I got a 3 from her cuz I almost dyed. What a lovely person. I never on all the groups I have been in I thought I would choose to ban someone but she just takes the cake.
