UPDATE: ~~~~~~~~~~

I will be on vacation June 27, 2018 - July 2nd and then a few days after I return I will be having back surgery. So I will be taking a break from swap-bot while I recoup from the surgery. Which I'm told will be between 6 months and a year. I won't be gone a whole year.

I'm not signing up for any more swaps or tags. And all of my packages will be sent out before I leave for vacation. Thanks you all for this great place.

Notice:

For some reason my address is NOT showing up correctly and it is not allowing me to correct it.

I put the correct street address in the second address line. Please disregard the first address line. Thank you. =========================
