Comment: Lovely, thanks!

Comment: Thank you soooo much! I loved everything, especialy the earrings, there amazing. I defo need to work on getting enough sleep haha!

Comment: Thank you for the BEAUTIFUL postcard. Best wishes on your new home in paradise.

Comment: I couldn't resist opening your presents early (I've never been good at the 'no peeking' thing! Even when I was younger my mum had to hide sent packages so I wouldn't open them) and let me tell you I am SO delighted with what you've sent me! The incense is just lovely ~ not overpowering or overly sweet - just the way I like it. :) The glass beads will be useful too (can never have enough of them!) and the little shell in the strawberry box (cute!) was so adorable - I think I'll make that into a wire-wrapped pendant. Now, the book! You totally hit the nail on the head with this one. It's just the sort of time travel I'm right into - more-so for the fact that it's a nice THICK book that obviously takes its time letting the story develop and delves a little deeper into situations (One small wish I'd always had for a lot of time travel romances was just that - more exploration and immersion). I'd actually noticed this author's works on Amazon a while back and made a note to check them out, so thank you for getting the ball rolling on that (I can't wait to read this). So glad I got you as a swap partner, you rock! :D

Comment: 15 min later and I am still laughing. I never wore a bikini i was to shy. And I definitely can relate to getting in the wrong car lol.

Comment: I can sure relate to your stories. I enjoyed reading them. I love the angel card as well. I am walking in as a survivor and working at as a committee member in the Cancer Relay for Life this weekend May 21 and 22, 2011. Have a terrific weekend and take care.
