Our family is like yours, we all use our right to vote, if you don't use that right then you have no right to bitch! It'll be interesting to see your results tomorrow. Stay positive and healthy.

Comment: The deadline to send your book was January 17, 2015. On January 30, I had still not received anything, the swap was still not marked “sent,” and I sent a private message asking about the status of the swap. As of February 3, 2015, I have not received anything. I hope you are well, and I will re-rate if I receive anything. For now, however, I must rate you a 1.

Comment: Your envelope finally arrived. It seems it was a long time at the customs :-( After they stamped it there it took another 2 weeks to reach my postbox :-( Anyway, thank you very much for all the cards and the extras

 

Comment: Thanks for getting the journal to me :D

Comment: Thanks for your zine. I liked the fact that you split it up into actual years.

Comment: Thanks so much for the zine! Such great advice for a younger you!! :)

Comment: I enjoyed reading your responses to this swap. I also enjoyed the little extra's--I haven't seen vintage postcards like those since I was a child. They brought back lots of wonderful memories. I would write letters to my grandparents on cards like those when I was a child--they lived 2000 miles away and I only got to see them for two weeks during the summer when we went to visit them. We also took coloring books and crayons and I remember them melting in the back window. What great memories you stirred up! Thanks!

Comment: This arrived in the post a little while ago, but my housemate forgot to give the post pick up note to me. Thank you so much! I loved all of it. Especially the pink tumbler :) I have been looking for one to keep water in next to my bed as my cat has a terrible habit of knocking over normal glasses.

Comment: thanks for the journal , love reading them

Comment: I'm excited to be the first to receive your journal! I love the tone you set and the prompt, although it will be difficult for me to answer since there are so many people I consider to be my best friends. Thanks!

Comment: love it all! I think the unknown is a type of butter churn. It attaches to a jar to churn your cream into butter! The stitching piece is perfect - love the hat on it. Thank you - wish I could give a star for each item in the box!

Comment: Hello Kim, Sorry I have been so slow in getting your rating done for this swap. However, I do appreciate your patience with me. Thank you for the picture of your son celebrating on the sand dunes. You sent this picture for the "One Word Photo" Swap, the word being JOY. I can see how you would choose this picture for the word Joy. I am adding this to my collection of pictures I have so far for this swap and it will eventually go into a album of all the "One Word Photos" I collect from this swap. Hope we get to swap with one another on future swaps. Until we meet again, Happy Swapping! Barb sleepingrover2010

Comment: I especially loved thes epictures. I have a 5yo daughter so they reminded me alot of her little hands. I liked the one taht was black and white with just a bit of color.

Comment: Thank you, Kim, for the very tender photos of your son hard at work. I liked the darker color photo best as it showed his other hand, too, participating in the project. It was a very sweet manifestation of the word "labor." Thank you, Kim.
