I am expecting to get this out by Feb 14--At this rate, I'm going to have to send cats's books in 3 seperate packages!! (or get one huge one, but I imagine that's expensive!)

Those that owe but are TBR, I'm thinking this is enough time for you guys (remind me if you have more than one TBR :blush: )

If I haven't journalled a book and you have mailed it a while back, let me know and I can rummage thru the box for the book.


:wave:

I've got a package ready to send to you, but I've been holding off to try to consolidate my mailing trip. It should go in the mail this week though...

Ooer! Valentine's day :wub:

This went in the mail last week -- two for catsalive and one for AEZ. Since they were sent media mail during this busy season, they may take a while to arrive.

:P I got yours today MsJ (will be je'ing them shortly) ;)

I've got books for this packaged up and plan on mailing them out with my paycheck on Friday.

I'll be back to list the books I have received for Cats.

**Dreading it**

FYI, and I passed this tip along to Kathy too, which I got originally from Candieb.

It works out really good to create a shared backpack list at backpackit.com. Then either of you can add to the list of books you're expecting, and then check them off as they arrive.

When it's time to ship the bag out, just enclose a print out of the list in the box and voila! :tada: It's much easier to track them as you go instead of trying to list them all at the end. Also, by listing them as people say they're going to send them, you will easily see if there was something that was supposedly sent but never received on your end (lost in the mail perhaps) and then follow up with the sender to see what's up.

Then too, when it's ready to be sent, you know if there were still any "in transit" that you're waiting to receive.

Do check it out... for your own sanity! :P Backpack


I wonder if I should add this as a tip somewhere... :unsure: in the top thread maybe..

:whip: You should have told me that before!!

I mailed one to you on Tuesday for cats. It should be there in time. ;)

I'm so excited. I'll squeeze them in somewhere :dance:

I'm pretty sure I sent you something for it, but I can't remember what. Do you have who they are from? Or can confirm that there's something there from me?

Sorry... yeah I should've told you about that backpack list thing sooner, so you'd already have that info. :blush:

Yes. Witch Hunt. :bananadance:

Good Gravy, that's a pile of books! :blink:

Oh goodie! Thankies! :kiss:

AEZ -- three more books went into the post today and should get there just in the nick of time: The Runaway Quilt, The Master Quilter, and The Sugar Camp Quilt, all by Jennifer Chiaverini. Postage is in a separate envelope.

You are fabulous, elsi!

Sure is. I have to stop playing in so many swaps & vbbs.

And the four I still owe are being sent in tomorrow's mail... they're waiting for the postman already. :D

Updated the list. Got a load of books for cats today.

I forgot to send money and I had already closed the package when I remembered. Can I paypal you Jazmin?

Yes, you may paypal me. I'll PM you.

Updated the list. Got Pepper's books today.

One lonely book came today from Elsi

The books I sent are in that list!! I'm so glad that we have this. The last books I tried to send to her... got lost in the mail :cry:

Thanks AEZ!! :bananadance:

:cry: Yes, doesn't that suck big time.

You're welcome!! :innocent:

I think I am still waiting for books from Herbwench. Are there any others? :shrug:

Elsi sent me The Runaway Quilt (won in an ALS) & The Master Quilter. I think they should have arrived with Sugar Camp Quilt, but don't quote me.

Sugar Camp Quilt was the only one in the bag. :shrug:


:waiting:

I PMd elsi to be sure it was just the one on its way. I don't know what day you plan on lugging all this to the PO. :)

:blush: When I get the remaning books from Elsi and herbwench?

I need 6 men to lift the boxes!!

No response from elsi, maybe it was only the one she sent :shrug:

Have you got those 6 men yet? :giggle:

:giggle: no, not yet. :whistle: :rofl:

Are you planning an on-going M-bag or is this it? I have a book and don't know whether to send it direct or not.

Well as soon as I get the remaining books from Elsi and Herbwench, the box is going. As I was told in the end of January that the books would get to me by the 14 (and haven't)--I am waiting to hear from both of them. After I get said books, the M-bag is leaving, and someone else can do the M-bag.

Thanks for the reply. I will send it direct by the slowest boat as Canada uses rowboats

I think elsi just sent the Sugar Camp Quilt, so I guess you're just waiting on herbwench now.

Think of all the room you'll have when they are gone :giggle:

At least it doesn't have to swim. Let's hope the kayak doesn't overturn :lol:
