Postcard Penpals International

This is such a clever idea ! I'm so excited.

You know I love writing letters and such to penpals. I used to have a bunch from different countries both e-mail and snail mail. We wrote to each other for years and with the changing e-mail companies and people moving I have lost touch with all of them. I am glad that you are hosting this swap and I would love to have a new penpal. I am with you about lasting friendships. I am looking forward to it. Thanks

When will we know who are partners are for this swap? I'm real anxious to get started on this swap. Thank you

Where's my partners?!?!? I'm soooo bored! :)

Scuse me... "Where are my partners?" ;)

HI, looks like from previous notes posted that eveveryone is anxiously awaiting their partners. Will you be assigning therm soon? The deadline to send the postcards is 8/7?

I too am looking forward to making a "new friend"..

When will we know who our partner is? It's already the 2nd and I will be going on vacation in the next couple of days...

I hope we get our partner soon!!!

I hope everything is okay with the coordinator of this swap as we have not heard anything about who are swap partners are. I am getting anxious about this as the deadline is August 7th, and so we now have only five more days before the deadline. Which means the post cards still have to be filled out before being mailed. So I hope we hear something very soon.

I've read this hosts ratings and profile... perhaps she is sick or something is wrong with her mother... Does anyone know how to get swap-bot to assign instead of the coordinator??

Well, since you're supposed to tell as much about yourself as possible, I do have my postcard ready to go. She hasn't logged in since the 26th - it has been 8 days. I hope all is all right.

I also hope she's all right and her mom as well! I'll have to drop from the swap shortly if partners aren't assigned as I'm going on vacation. I'll check back tomorrow.

I'm afraid I'll be dropping from this swap -- I will be out of town beginning tomorrow and won't be able to participate. Please let me know if anyone hosts a similar swap later in the summer!

I'd rather wait to have our partners assigned before I fill out my postcard, just in case the swap is canceled. I know that she sounds worried about her mom, and if it were me that would be the only thing that would be on my mind. I hope her mom is okay, and my warmest wishes go out to her.

i hope everything is alright!

also, in case she doesn't return and people are still interested in this swap, I've made a remake of it if people want to join:

http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/42422?new=1

the same rules apply, if anyone is interested please join! i do this because i've already filled out my postcard and am excited to have a new pen-pal. of course, if she returns, i will be deleting my swap.

i am still interested in this swap too. i didn't realize she had concerns about her mom so i will be patient.

I am still interested in the swap, and would hate to drop out. But I will give it a couple more days to see if there is any word. I think that if she was able to she would let us know what is going on. But she may be pre-occupied right now with more important stuff.

I am leaving for the hospital this morning but I should be back by friday to mail it out. Im sorry to my partner, but the doc is going to induce me into labor and i dont know how long i may be in the hospital. thank you.

I am so sorry. My mom is near death and in inpatient hospice. I apologize, but my mind has been completely devoted to her and my family. I have been living at the hospital. I have extended swap dates and will send partners today.

Oh gosh, I am so sorry to hear about your mom! Family should always come first and I am sure everyone will understand!

GGMM, V.sorry to hear about your Mom. You& your family are in my thoughts& prayers. Take care-jillian.

Thank you for the thoughtful wishes everyone. I really appreciate your kindness so very much. xoxo

I am so confused. i got an email saying i had been dropped now i get one saying i was supposed to send one?? who do i send it to?

Sorry, I sent this last week, just forgot to confirm that I did!
