Golden Girls Swap!!! SIGN UP:CLOSED. SEND OUT BY: 8/20/05

[LiquidScissors]

I know things are going shitty but I am trying so hard to fulfill my swap obligations.  So hard.  Things really have come up for me, I cant even begin to explain what a difficult time i am going through at the moment, and which was so totally unexpected.  At the same time I feel an obligation to send things out, and yes I am very late and yes that sucks.  Yes this swap hasnt gone well and I know that I am to blame in ways. I am trying my best tho.  I really truley am.  I dont want to just give up and flake. I am trying to finish out the rest of the swaps I started, Its just so hard when you have a million worries on your mind.  I wish that you guys knew my sincerty in what I am saying.  I know it means close to nothing coming over the internet.  I know.  I just cant really say anything other then I am trying.

Things just keep getting worse and worse and everything I try to do latley just keeps getting screwed up and screwed up some more.  I have no energy, no patients, I am tired and weak, I can barley stand to get out of bed, but It stresses me more and more everyday knowing that I cant do something so simple as something I used to love to do so much. 

I am truley sorry to everyone.  I really am.  But I am not a flake and i will come through.

Thanks, everybabyweeps, I know that most people are reliable and all that, it's just rather disappointing.  KerriedAway, were you sending to Hankpiece?  He's the one I haven't received from--told me he was moving so he'd be late sending, but that was a while ago.

Hankpeice hasn't responded to any of my pms latley.  So I am assuming he did flake.  Dont worry tho, Merleigh, I have it covered. 

I have been flaked on many times, and it does suck.  I did the Let me make your craft swap one time and made all these cool things for someone who never said if she recieved it and never sent to her partner and dissapeared.  Yeah it sucks.  Putting time and effort in to something and then not being able to even know if it was recieved or even know if they liked it.  It sucks.  But that is the chance you take with things like these, and the majority of the time people do come through with some pretty awesome things!!  even if you do get flaked on, there are so many honost craftsters who are willing and wanting to make you something to make up for it.

I wouldn't let this one bad swap discourage you, because honostly for the most part this swap went rather well.  Only 1 flaker and 1 extremely late person (me).

I hope you guys will try new swaps, they can be a lot of fun.  really. 

Sorry to everyone who is upset. 

KerriedAway, you should be getting your package soon, princess_me is going to send it to you for me.

Thanks, LiquidScissors.  Sorry you're having a tough time.  And I'm not really all that upset, just a little annoyed.  I'm sure I won't let this drive me away from swaps forever.   

[KerriedAway]

MerLeigh-Yup he's the one who I havent heard hide nor hair of.  I just stalked him down on AIM too... though of course, no response as of yet.  Dude, just say you got it and give me a thank you for cryin out loud!
Liquid-Don't be so hard on yourself.  Sorry if i sounded so disgruntled.  I've just been burned in the past.  But thank you for coming through.  I'm excited to see your craftiness.  I hope things start looking up for you, even if its just one day at a time.

[LiquidScissors]

sorry I didn't mean to go so crazy. I just had a little swap induced breakdown I think. ergh.
Hopefully you get your stuff soon Kerriedaway. I tryed in make a cool theme.  I am sure things will be ok with me, i just get scared. Life is so crazy, one minute things are looking up and your having a good time and the next everything just turns inside out.  Blah

We would all love to hear what you made for hankpeice since hes too "busy" to let us know himself. I am sure it was great!

MerLeigh - I am gonna start working on some stuff for you.  I have finally finished swap overloadness and have some free craft time.
