The last two envelopes of swap seeds arrived Saturday afternoon.

All seed packages were brought to the post office and mailed back at 8:30 this morning.
If you would like your tracking number, please send a tree mail with your zip code so I can locate it on the receipt. The post office was extremely busy today and I did not want to take the time and hold up the line to write down each one and pay for them individually..

I apologize for not playing games this year. Grumbling
I'm adjusting to caring for my newest granddaughter two days a week while still being the primary daily caretaker of my 90 year old Mom who insists upon living alone!

I do plan on hosting again next year and I hope to be better prepared and start adding in available seeds early on so I can offer lots more than a few hundred packs.

A great big Thank you to @Bluespiral. @poisondartfrog @kywheeler and @janinilulu for the hostess gifts. They're not necessary but appreciated. Lovey dubby

Apologize for nothing, Lisa - what you do with these swaps, encouraging all of us to post nice selections, offering extras, the incredibly fast turnaround - nope, you have nothing to apologize for! I know about the aging mom thing - my mom is 93 this year, living alone, and my sister (geographically closer than me) deals with the same daily care. But as exhausting as it is, and I hope you have a good recliner Green Grin! , being able to watch your granddaughter as she grows is such a blessing. Mine live in Scotland, so other than once a year visits I have to be thankful for FaceTime! Anyway, thank you so much for your hard work - and already thinking about next year? Is it sort of like having a baby, you forget the pain after you see the first smile? Green Grin!

Happy holidays to you!

Lisa,
Yes, you do a fantastic job! Thanks so much for all of your work in sorting the seeds. I'm sure those seeds are going to be my most favorite gift--unless somebody decides to buy me a greenhouse! I take care of my 94-year-old dad, so I know how that goes. Fortunately, he's still relatively healthy, so my contribution is mostly the cooking and housekeeping.
