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!

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.
