The Twelve Days of Christmas ~ Due December 30th

[Marie]

Thank you Martha and Carol. I appreciate your patience. <3

I'm good with waiting as long as we can.

We all put a lot of work into these 12 cards so I want us all to get 12 fun new ones!!

[TrinaLD]

I'm also good with waiting, but if my cards are the only ones not yet received, I'd hate for you to hold the swap up. I've had one set go missing several months ago.

By the way, my friend's envelope finally showed up! It was 2 day priority mail and the sender paid some good money for that. It was sent on December 19 and received January 11! Holy smokes. I will say that the bills are getting through just fine. Perhaps we should all disguise our envelopes as bills!

[Marie]

Right Trina? Some sets make it in 3-5 days, others take longer, strangely things mailed later seem to be going right through, but things mailed earlier seem to be on some kind of merry-go-round. Odd....

And your set is NOT the only one still out. There is still a handful en route.

[Haagmm]

I’m fine with waiting!

[Suzi]

I don’t mind waiting.

[Marie]

Thanks MaryAnn! I agree!

[Marie]

Thank you Melissa and Suzi. We’re all in this together. This is such a great group!

[plumhill2001]

No problem with waiting. I like the idea of disguising our cards as bills!

[Marie]

Haha! Might work!

I sent you a PM with the tracking number. Mailed on the 11th of December. Last indicator is in transit on the 18th of December. So massively overdue.

[Marie]

Isn’t it crazy? In my WOTY swap cards are arriving so quickly. Of course that swap started much later so those sets were mailed after all the Christmas and balloting rush. I guess they never got buried in the overload. Things seem to be getting sorted out so hopefully not much longer.

Just checking in: I don't mind waiting. I am hearing some stories of very late mail. Let's all hope that last set gets through!

[Monroy28]

i just got my last Christmas card yesterday- sent dec 9th................ I ask why it took so long and the post man says.."i just deliver it...can't tell you the path it took". gggrrrrrrrr

[Marie]

True words I guess, maybe a little bedside manner would have helped though. :-/

Heathermae77 your cards arrived today. Every. Single. One cracked me up! Great set!

[xstitcher]

She mailed hers about the same time I did and from farther away so maybe there is still hope for mine.

It has been 3 weeks and I am starting to think they are lost somewhere.

[TrinaLD]

Monroy28, I just learned from another friend that they mailed something on December 9 and it's still not at its destination. It's good to hear that some of the cards are making their way. Grrr is right.

[Suzi]

I received a card today in the mail that was mailed on December 5, from IL. Seems like everything is eventually making it to their destination..... patience......

[Marie]

Exactly what I’m thinking. The backlog is getting through now, a bit at a time. Hang in there! I’ve get be away for a few days, and will have the post office holding my mail so I won’t be able to update you right away. Let’s see what’s here when I get back.
