Sassy Apron Swap Done!

Finally done!! I sent the apron off today. Sorry no pictures. I sent my camera to the hospital so a friend of mine could make sure she had pictures of her baby before they sent the baby up to Children's Hospital. That's a whole different story. I have had a terrible time getting the swap done. I had most of the apron done by the last week in August, but that last week I spent with nauseating, dizzy migriane. I didn't get anything done that week. We did go up to Ape caves on Sat. and had a wonderful time, but I did wonder throughout the trip if there was a way to overdose on tylonel. Anyone know. How many tylonel to you have to take to overdose, 'cause there is no way that just two or even three will kill my migraine. And again, life is just one thing after another. I e-mailed Lucy, the girl in charge of the swap, telling her I would have my swap done and sent by Sept.3, the 4 by the latest, did it happen ...no, because I have had a million things pop up that needed immediate attention. Things like taking my friend's little girl, or making sure that a friend of mine who has been in and out of the hospital and needs a little bit of support is okay and has doctors appt. and will be getting meds changed or visiting with my friend from Hawaii who is visiting her parents for a couple of days, or ...yes the list actually goes on, but you probably don't want to read about it. I don't really want to think about it, because I am DONE with the APRON!!!

I hope my swap partner likes it...I hope it fits, I'm a little worried. I think it will fit, but then I start to worry again. I totally made a mess of her package. I was trying to hurry before 12, because I knew if it didn't get it sent before that I wouldn't be able to send it until Monday. So I was hurrying and wrote her last name down wrong. The recipe that I was supposed to send fell out of the package and I found it after getting back from the post office on my front porch. At this point I'm hoping I sent it to the right address. I meant to send little treats for her kids or at least little baby stuff for her cute little twin baby girls, but no it just wasn't happening, nope, nope, nope, nope. And I couldn't wait till I had a moment, because really I have two extra kids now and I'll have another in just a little bit and there is no way that I'm taking two children under three (and all my other ones) anywhere...just how old do you think I am? I'm not a young mother anymore, I'm ooooollllllddddd and can't remember how you take lots of toddler children anywhere. So all that to say "Patricia I'm still really, really, really, sorry!!! If my world were perfect (not even perfect just less hectic) at the moment I would have soooo added cute stuff to your package and your apron and potholder would so not have had so many mistakes...please trust me on this, and don't go looking for the mistakes, because yes they are there.

I'm done, thanks for listening...

Thank you so much for messaging me. Don't worry about it being a little late...mine didn't get off until Tuesday. I understand the busy thing. Trust me on that. ;) I am sure I will love it and I will be just as excited to get it on Monday. Thanks and I will write to you when I get it.

The apron is a little tight but it does fit (and I am trying to lose weight anyway so it is a great excuse). I do love it and like I said it is the first apron that I have ever received and I am so excited. I am also glad to make friends with people across the U.S. I love the Pacific coast states and it is cool to talk to someone who lives there. Talk to you later.
