I always forget about the stickies too! Thats why I posted this reminder because I know people don't look up there and if there are any new mamas I wanted to make sure they knew this was going on...

Don't worry.. the reason I refered you to the sticky was well I'm not as articulate as I want to be today and I'm sure I would have given bad or half the info and then confused everyone.... : I hope I didn't offend you by coming off as being flipant.

Let me know if you still want to do the swap.

Yeah, this is what I meant! Sorry for not being clearer - having a terrible day

Or small envelopes from the scrapbook store (or the florist) would work too. Although, TBH, I don't want to spend much (money or time) on the packaging and so forth. I'm not getting *expensive* beads, but they are nice ones, and I can't bring myself to spend more on the packaging and shipping than on the gift itself, lol! My mother would cringe at such a thing, and I have to agree!

That sounds like a good idea!

Thanks, but I think its better for everyone if I drop out. I will be the one who mails 5 less beads than I should have and I'll end up mailing the affirmations to my grandmother and forget the prepaid return envelope. : I need to stick to very simple tasks these days. Like eating.
