HA Ha Ha PR that's awesome!!!! How does that happen? I guess with all the cold wintry precipitation we've had in Ar lately that package just decided not to stop but keep on going. My ? Is how are they out for delivery? | |

I just read my 1st post Meleah lives in Arkansas! Bad auto correct! I copied her addy straight from her OP right onto my office page...so I KNOW I had her addy correct! |

Meleah,
Mine were mailed today. I forgot to get the dc from my husband before he went to bed, but I will text it to you tomorrow, although you may receive it tomorrow since we live in the same state. I truly have enjoyed my first swap and can't wait to see everyone's creations....just remember I am new to this so don't laugh! LOL!!

Shannon, I'm not going to expect yours tomorrow, because the second I do it will end up going to Hawaii first, lol. I'm fixing to call the post office and find out why Rosy's package went to Puerto Rico and see how long to expect it. What worries me is how bad shape the package was in if they couldn't tell the difference between AR and PR with totally different zip codes. |

Okay so this is what the Post Office said:
Jeanette's package was not received from the shipper, and that I will need to contact the shipper to find out where the package is. This makes no sense to me. How can they have shipping info without actually having the package to ship? Why scan a package if someone is not actually giving you the package to send? So pretty much got nowhere with this.
Rosy's package, she assured me, is on its way here. She could not tell me why it went to Puerto Rico, but did say it has left Puerto Rico and is on its way to AR. I asked if she could tell about how much longer it would take, and she said it takes about 4 days from the day is was shipped. Which would have been yesterday. She couldn't explain that one. Anyway, the only thing I learned from this is that it is on its way. Woo Hoo, don't you just love the post office? |

Oh my WORD! I think I am cursed! Thanks Meleah for looking into that mystery of the run away Twinchies! Or maybe they were papernapped, ohhhhh I know! They were abducted by pirate's! My DH thinks they were making a break for it....... |

I'm sorry, Rosy, but that is just too funny. At least they will get to Meleah, eventually, and (hopefully) will not get lost. |

scrappingloretta - I am still waiting for packages. We had one that is MIA, Jeanette redid all of her twinchies and mailed hers out again yesterday, and Rosy's package decided to take a detour through Puerto Rico, it should be here tomorrow. I'm also waiting on criespearls package to get here as well. As soon as they all get here it won't take me long to get them swapped and in the mail to all of you. Thank you so much for your patience.
I got Shannon's package today, and I feel lied to. So many of you told me you were beginners, but I have yet to see beginner work. All the twinchies I have are absolutely beautiful, and definitely does not look like a beginner did them. |

Yay criespearls, I finally got it to track for me. I had to keep entering the number over and over till it finally worked. I guess I was more stuborn than their computer, lol. It does show that it got to my post office just before 5pm yesterday. So I'm pretty sure I'll get it tomorrow. I'm so excited, I can hardly wait!
Now to track Jeanettes package and see where it is, lol. |

Yay my packaged was delivered at 9:41 am.! I hope everyone likes them, all but my bugs category was easily recreated. My poor snails had to be done with what I had handy as I didn't not have some of the elements from the first package. Meleah - if that ever arrives, please just return it as it did have return postage in it. I can use them for the kiddos around here. | |

Okay, I had so many different ideas for twinchies, that I've decided to split it up into two more rounds.
Round one is due Mar 31st and includes: Zoo Days, In the Garden, Planes Trains and Automobiles, Mother's Day, Father's Day
Round two is due May 31st and includes: A Day at the Beach, 4th of July, Picnic, and Sea Life. (Any more ideas are welcome.)
I'm heading over now to open up the next round. Y'all give me a couple minutes then head on over and sign up. |
