    yeah, where were you sending FROM and where was it going TO? Because, like Lily said, there's been so much adverse weather in parts of the country, it might just be delayed due to that!

    Not to butt in, but to give you guys an idea of how long packages are taking right now:

    My hubby sent me a package from Ohio to Saskatchewan. He was told it would take 4-7 days, and it took 10 days instead. Mail, particularily large package mail, is moving slower than normal. Oh, and those tracking numbers don't always work once you cross the border. He checked on the package a lot, and was only told of its process up to the point when it left the US.... so "left Logan" was the last info we received, even though it arrived today.

    Hope it makes it there!

    ok, hipmoon just let me know if it gets there :)
    it seems like an extremely long amount of time because it was only going within the same state.
    i'll keep hoping.
    *love*

    CHecked today and nothing. Blackriverlily, could you try to put a trace on it? You said it was sent within the same state, so maybe it just got stuck somewhere and forgotten. Call the place you sent it from and see if they can trace it.

    Just wanted to give a heads up to Black Riverlily. I am no longer interested in this swap box since it sort of went sour. If you happen to have sent it already, I will gladly just send it off to the next person (I won't be adding anything), but if you haven't already sent it off.... just go to the next person on the list.

    hey everyone,
    ok hipmoon, noted. i'm sorry it didn't ever get there.
    i can still send out a new box to the next person if i get the addresses from fleassy.
    i feel the need to explain though, i'm going through a bit of a personal crisis, in the process of dropping out of school at the moment :(
    anyway, love all

    If you're in your first year, at least finish the semester out. That first year is tough as can be, but I dropped out as soon as I finished that last final, and let me tell you, it's no picnic outside of school. You could always look into transfer and stuff. Like I said, PM me. :)

    Hey!, that's so cool! [​IMG] Be sure to get a delivery confirmation tracking number and we'll keep this problem from happening again. I have saved SO much stuff in hopes of getting a swap box. Fleassy, you do have my address, right?
