My Swap is Full!

You can't believe how excited I am that my swap has reached the 20 participant limit! It's my first time hosting, and with Wanda's help, I hope to be a good hostess. Wanda and I are coming up with ideas for extra goodies to send with the completed tag books, and I have some ambitious ideas for the tag book itself. I only say that the ideas are ambitious because of my work schedule and time constraints. I can't wait to see what all of the talented ladies that have joined, do with the countries that they've chosen - I've seen some of their work, and feel honored that they've decided to join my swap. If I could insert a picture of me, stomping my feet, clapping my hands, and smiling with glee, here, I would. Anyway, that's enough for now. Good night!

Package from Leta

I received my package today from Leta for the May Day Tussie Mussie Swap. It's wonderful, see for yourself...

Cone Filled with Chocolates, Magnets, and Sanitizing Soap

A Jar of Gummi Candy

A Set of Candles in Various Scents

A "Purse" with an Initialed Mirror and Charm Bracelet

Paper Flowers, Rub-Ons, and Rhinestones

Leta felted the cone, and I think it's adorable. The rest of the items are also wonderful, and I can't wait to use them all - the candies will be a particular hardship to bear :-)

Dinner at Martina's

Tonight, I joined Brenda and Bill at Martina and Marty's for dinner. Brenda and Martina used to work at the Tidewater with me. I haven't seen any of them in a long time, and we'd been promising to get together since October, but it's never happened. I can't believe what a good time I had. The food and wine were good, but the company was even better. I'm so glad we were able to get together.

May Day Tussie Mussie Swap

Today was the deadline to send out my package for the May Day Tussie Mussie Swap, and I barely made it. I'm pleased to say that I put together a package that I would be pleased to receive, and I hope that Leta enjoys it, too. I'm really happy with the cone and floral bouquet I sent.

I threw in a necklace for her birth month that I put together.

I also sent her a couple candles in her favorite scents, a journal, and a bag of Starbucks whole bean coffee. Hopefully, some things that she'll really enjoy.

This Is SO Hilarious

Tonight, at Tidewater, Mel showed me this video that someone sent to her phone. I think it's too hilarious to keep to myself. If you're easily offended, please don't hit the play button.

Project Pillow Swap

I've joined a new swap, the Project Pillow Swap. It's kind of secret partner swap, and should be lots of fun. I hope I have enough time to do a good job on it.
