11/15/11 Re-sent swap ( USA Big stuffed envelope #7) to partner with a note of apology to last known address. I wanted to make good on my unfair rating before this 2011 year ended. Partner did say she would change the rating when she received something, so I'm praying she receives it soon. I understand address change and ppl move. (delivery confirmation via USPS). 11/26/11 Checked online to see if envelope was received yet and found out that the envelope is still in transit due to forwarding instruction. Thank you. Will continue to pray she receives it real soon.
