Oh that good Ann so it will be safe. I do hope you get it today. THE US Postal service in the beginning said that Priority Mail only took 2 days. I'm finding out its more like 2-4 depending on where it is going. It does have insurance so thats a second plus. Lets see what happens.

The priority boxes are funny in how they get delivered. I mailed 3 on Friday after 6 pm and 1 at the Post Office on Sat am. The one to Boston was delivered Monday, the one to Indiana was on campus Monday night and to my daughter's dorm Tuesday morning (so both were at their destination on Monday), however my Mom still hasn't received her box and she lives in Apple Valley CA, less than a 2 hr drive :) The tracking still had it in San Bernadino last night. So across country going through Chicago or Boston was faster than by truck to the Calif desert. The 4th one was in my nephew's hands when he called yesterday from the Army Base in Japan........

Carolyn - you are right that is crazy. I mailed mine from here in the office so I need to know if that was the holdup. However, I did use stamps and not metered postage.

Box arrived yesterday and I am now in the process of "viewing" all the goodies.

I hope to have it back out tomorrow morning and on to sadiedaisy1.

Oh Ann - thanks for the update. I am sooooo nervous, hope there is something in there you will like. Let's just say, I used the "would you want it" method, but judging from my entry for the "ugly" fabric swap that could be questionable. ROFLOL.

Dj, "viewing" is over and I have selected a few choice pieces of fabric.

I have added some of the "collectibles" that some have listed and will have it on it's way tomorrow morning. I hope that I have added something that you or anyone will like.

Woo Hoo...getting excited to see all the goodies!! I'm glad Ann finally got it. I'm not sure what I'm going to put in there yet. I guess I'll decide when I see what's already in there. Wait until my DH sees this big box show up. He's very interested in all the stuff I'm getting from the swaps. Sometimes he opens the package to look before I do. LOL!
