Comment: Thanks for the nice note and I'll try to answer any mail you send me.

Comment: I would have liked to have given a heart, but your English was hard to understand, and your send date was after the swap deadline. I gave you a 5 anyway because you did send it, but if they had a 4 rating, I would have given you that.

Comment: Thank you.

Comment: Got your card and letter, thanks!

Comment: Thank you for the card and the letter. Can you pm me your address please so I can respond? Some of the ink on the envelope got smudged in the mailing process and I can't read it and I wanted to make sure I had it right. The card is so very pretty. :-)

Comment: merry christmas

 

Comment: I will write back soon!

Comment: thank you so much for your card,stikers and amazing letter!! I LOVE PENPALS!! mailing response soon!! happy holidayss!!

Comment: Thank you for the nice card and letter. I have never been a pen pal. I am going to give it a try. So keep an eye out for my answer letter.

Comment: Thanks for the ATC -- I really like your use of color. And thanks for inviting me to be a pen pal. I appreciate your asking, but I am a very unsatisfactory correspondent, as I just don't seem to find the time to answer letters from anyone, so I have to say no. Thanks for the offer, though, and happy swapping!

Comment: Thanks for the suggestions!

 

 

Comment: Thanks so much for the letter! I'll write you back soon :)

Comment: Thank you, Lori Jean! Pretty picture!

Comment: Sorry, I am out of town for the Holidays and am unable to check my mailbox... But am operating under the assumption that everyone has sent me something I loved! More personal thank you can be expected when I get home. Cheers!

 

Comment: Thanks for the great Christmas card!

Comment: I got my letter yesterday. Thank you, I look forward to the envelope!

Comment: Thanks for the postcard, Lori Jean. I rated a 3 as the postmark was dated Sept.7/11 and it was supposed to be sent no later than August 15/11. Almost a month late. And the swap name was not indicated on the PC so it makes it difficult to ID.

Comment: VERY VERY LATE!!!

Comment: Received 9/10 Thank you for the notecards to go with the envelopes. Hope things are getting better for you.

 

Comment: Hey Lori Jean Thanks for the letter and poem. I am interested in being pen pals, but I found your writing incredibly hard to read :) Maybe if you are interested in typing letters to me we could. Sincerely natasha x

Comment: Can't wait to read it! Thanks! :D

Comment: Package arrived today. Thank you, I did like the items you sent, but I can't rate you more than a 3 because the package was sent very late, and you didn't communicate that it would be late until the swap coordinator contacted you.

Comment: I received your "Shared Journal Experiment" today....I am changing the rating to a 3...When I contacted you on may 7 you send the journal was being sent out by the end of the week. You never told me you was flaked on, you said it was packed away....These journals should be sent out on time....If your late then that makes your partner late, if they wait for yours. I made a new one and sent out.....I WILL not flake on anyone or send out late.....

Comment: Thank you for the lovely squares. :o)

Comment: Sorry to rate you a three but the swap was sent super late.

Comment: Hi Lori - I had trouble finding which swap to rate you as you didn't put the swap name on the pc. It is a lovelycard.

Comment: Thanks for sending, if a bit late ("send by" date was 3/31, and I received the swap on 5/14). The picture frame arrived completely shattered, so I had to throw it out. :( However, that might have been the fault of the post office, so I don't blame you for that. I did like the picture and stamps. Thank you!

Comment: Thanks for the Javelina postcard. Be sure to look at the send by dates on the swaps you send, because this one was over a month late. I'm giving you a 5 because you wrote quite a bit on the PC, which is rare. Thanks & take care ;)

Comment: Although you sent this way past the swap deadline, it was such a sweet package I couldn't possibly give you any less then a 5 & a heart. The Gemini bear made me laugh because over the past few days I've felt rotten and have had the same disgruntled expression on my face as he has. It's so brilliant and as most all Russ teddies are - so lovely and soft! I love him. :) I also really really loved the Max Lucando quotes (my mum did as well and copied them into a book where she keeps all the poems and quotes that mean something special to her!) - just reading them sort of lifted me above this horrible lonely feeling I've been having lately - I actually cried reading one, I felt that overwhelmed by what it made me feel!! Must look up some more this mans quotes - he's fabulous! All the other bits and pieces, the 3d dimensional stickers, etc were also lovely and very useful. :D Overall it was a package that was perfect -coming at just the right time to offer a pick-me-up I so sorely needed. Thank you so much! :)

Comment: Thank you so much! :)

Comment: Sorry to have to rate you a 3, but it was a month late =/. I had to contact you.

Comment: thank you for the postcard, and you are right, spring/ summer is much needed. I'm finally getting out in the yard, this spring has been wacky.

Comment: I'm sorry that I have to give you a 3. If you would have sent me any kind of message, even the day you sent the squares, I would have given you a five. :( These were sent a week and a half late, with no communication at all.

Comment: thanks

Comment: Never received an you don't respond to my messages. 11 may: received a cute snowglobe and some other cute things, thank you very much

Comment: Finally got the flip flops...thanks

Comment: Even though she said she was sending, I never received anything. Received a month late and I won't be able to use,

Comment: This was sent quite late, but thank you all the same! I enjoyed your letter very much and will write you back if I can.

Comment: was received late and there were answers missing but thank you for sharing

 

Comment: if card ever arrive with me I'm happy to change this rating...

 

Comment: was sent almost a month late...

Comment: Did receive, but sent over a month late, never responded to any messages.

Comment: Today, I received 2 Granny Squares for Rainbow of Grannies - Round 2" swap. I'm rating a 3 because they were suppose to be sent out by April 2. I messaged you on April 17th and never heard from you. I am happy that you sent them but they were way late and it wouldn't be fair to rate you any higher.

Comment: Thanks for the great postcard!!!

Comment: Thank you so much for the answers to these 100 QUESTIONS! I enjoyed reading your answers. Happy birthday, by the way! :)

Comment: I received the envie you sent. It was postmarked for Apr. 13th so it was late. Also, the decorations you put on the envie got all mangled in the mail, which might've been why it took awhile. But, thank you for what you did send.

Comment: I like the sites that you sent me, i have not heard of some of them... Thanks !

Comment: Thank you for the postcard. :)

Comment: thanks for trying a zentangle for the first time and sharing a little bit about you. Just a friendly little advice about packaging, with journals and sharp edges in non padded envies they then to tear some, luckily this made it to me, as half of one side was shredded open; you may want to use padded envies or just go around with clear packaging tape to secure. Have a great week!

Comment: Thank you! Fantastic!!

Comment: Wow, your story brought joy as well as sadness to my eyes. Thank you for sharing & hope you enjoy every minute you have in your life. :D Also, the book looked so cute and adorable. :D

Comment: Thank you for the very pretty cards. I've been to Prescott before but no further. I would love to go again sometime.

Comment: Hello Lori Jean- Thank you for the wonderful postcards from Arizona. I would give you a bunch of hearts if I could because you are so generous with the postcards. One would have been adequate. I lived in Phoenix for a while as a child, and both sets of grandparents and an aunt and uncle lived in Mesa from the early 1960s until they died in the 1990s and 2000s, so I have been to Arizona quite a few times. It is very different from where I live, but very beautiful at the same time. I especially liked seeing the desert in the spring when everything was blooming. I hope you are having a nice fall there in Mesa. My very best wishes to you and yours. Sincerely, Debbie Christian

Comment: Thank you. The bear is so very cute and I have a special little girl who just came into to our lives that will be able to love him.

Comment: Thank you for the wonderful recipes! I cannot wait to try them!

Comment: Lori, I really apologize for not rating you sooner! I got all the fantastic coupons - thanks for taking so much time and care in sending it out!
