Your entries are awesome and I love that they are meaningful. Thank you so much for getting it out to me. You are a great swapper and I really appericate the effort you put in!

Comment: love this pc & lyrics!!

Comment: great pc thx

Comment: thank you for the resend!

 

 

Comment: Thanks for the stickers - there are some great ones in there that we can't get here, including the toilet paper and big padded underpants ones. Not fair! Why can't we buy toilet roll stickers here? ;) (Seriously, that one's a special fave!) * * * * * I just read about your mishap and wanted to tell you the same thing happened to me: small table, open top drawer (full of important quotes, papers, stickers, zine content, pens, stapler, you name it) + delicious homemade smoothie (I hadn't even tried it yet!) = disaster! I can relate to the anger at yourself and frustration, believe me. The things I dried out to try to salvage went mouldy (Nice! Thanks, yoghurt.) And the clean-up was like adding insult to injury. Not an experience I want to repeat. I did notice your swap was a bit late, but I didn't mind. The proof is in the pudding: you're a great swapper who went above and beyond, spent a lot on postage, and presented a gorgeous and colourful swap, nicely wrapped and decorated. I know this is really long, but I just wanted people to know that, in reality, you backed up everything you said in your profile. :)

Comment: Crystal, thank you so much for the wonderful swap! So sorry for the late rating - I have really been ignoring my swap-bot commitments as of late, and think I am going to take a break from swapping altogether once I complete all my current swaps. I loved the heart-shaped card you sent me, and the stickers are awesome, too! I really enjoyed reading about you (it was certainly not boring at all!), thank you for sharing your story with me. I am sorry to hear that you have fibromyalgia – another swap-bot friend of mine has the same condition, and I’ve heard from her how bad it can get. I hope you are feeling good! =D I love photography, and it’s very neat that your fiancé is a photographer! Does he have a website with his photographs that I could visit? I have an etsy shop with my photography, if you are interested: www.maggie16.etsy.com. Anyway, thanks again for a great swap! Hugs from Aus, Margs x
