About Me

After hitting the ground running since May 1 due to hubby's heart attack, I finally am able to slow a bit. I am continuing college full time, dropped my pt job and sales class as they were draining due to mean ppl. My freelance is taking off a bit so I will work on that, besides getting ready for the holidays! yippee!

I'll have more time for swapping now, but still trying to be careful about how many swaps I join.

I do try hard, just am scattered at times and distracted...

When I was new I got carried away by signing up for too many swaps. Also my husband had a heart attack and that really threw everything off, then b/c he couldn't work I am working now and so NOW I have signed up for less swaps.

I've recieved 2 complaints about my atc/card quality, and I am VERY new at atc's so I am hoping that by signing up for less and taking more time, I won't get any more complaints. It kinda took the fun out of it.

I have found resources for the atc cards to buy of different materials so this shouldn't be a problem any longer. I'm not going to do cards b/c I still cant' figure out what paper to buy lol.

I RATE ON EFFORT and I WOULD LIKE MY RATING TO BE CONSIDERED FOR EFFORT.

AFTER the swap's 2 week grace period, THEN ask me about your rating. I usually rate all partners at once. Thank you!

LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE SENDING LATE ETC AND I WILL WORK WITH YOU!

Comment: I received your ATC but the glue didn't hold in transit and it was in three pieces. It appears it was a black and white card with some red texta and a paper ladybird :)
Response: boy i am having a hard time with glue issues! either they glob or don't hold, i have to try another kind. sorry

Thank you for your Getting to Know You Special Ones letter - my husband works in a similar environment to yours although it stresses him to see people losing money they can't afford to lose on the poker machines.

Thank you for the great letter for the "Get to know you Special Ones" swap! It's always nice to meet a fellow Christian on swap-bot.
