RATING PARTNERS

I am really big on communication and will rate down if you don't let me know the swap will be late or there is no communication Im pretty laid back and will not be upset if you just notify me . I also mark sent when the item is in the community locked mail box and out of my hands .I also rate as soon as I receive a swap I don't like leaving people waiting for a rating . I feel that is inconsiderate . If I have not rated you it is because I have not received .

Favorite Music

I enjoy opera and classical music and play the cello , violin , and piano . I have a violin and cello but don't have a piano but play for my church on occasion . I love poetry as well and enjoy poetry swaps as well . I consider myself well educated and well rounded person .

allergies

No cigar , cigarette or pipe smell as I am allergic and it will send me straight to the hospital for a shot and I would not like spending a night in the E. R . because someone exposed me to these smells . thanks so much for understanding .

Comment: Originally marked sent March 27 and this package never came... because the swapper lied and said she shipped when she hadn't. I never received this package. Said her packages heading 'up north' normally took a week to arrive, seemed very anxious and quickly assumed the post office had lost it after only a few days had gone by. She sent a "second" package on April 4 via regular First Class Mail and it only took 2 days to get to me. Unfortunately, this package contained mostly things I don't like (which I am donating to my son's art teacher) and since I received something, I have to rate a 3, but really this was quite a disappointment since they were supposed to be profile items. If I receive a package that meets the swap requirements I would be happy to re-rate. EDIT: Her last message to me was from April 7, in which she said she was going to her cousin's house on April 9, to see if she had any books that she could send me since I have a lot of books on my wishlist. I hadn't heard from her since then even though I sent a follow up message so I left this rating. Yes, I asked for an Amazon gift card, but only because it seemed you were having such a hard time finding things I like! I do not have a "give me give me" attitude; I am just very specific in what I like and what I can use. Who in their right mind is happy receiving things they don't like or cannot use? It just adds to the clutter I already have and I don't want that. If you weren't able to send me things from my profile you should not have agreed to swap with me in a profile swap in the first place. What I sent you (17 varieties of vegetable/fruit/herb seeds, including one new packet... as well as one sheet of new scrapbooking stickers) was above and beyond the swap requirements and sadly, you felt it was okay to send me a small envelope of what was mostly junk. (Including plastic kids' beads and buttons just thrown in the envelope with no bag/container to hold them!) You maintain that you sent the first package, but I have never had a package lost by the post office, your "second" package only took 2 days to reach me (instead of a week like you had estimated) and your behavior was very telling in that you weren't telling the truth. I urge any swap hosts to ban dwarfmatergirl from swaps that are package swaps. I hate that it has come to this, me leaving this awfully long rating on your profile, but you really can't be trusted. The one who received the 'handout' or something for almost nothing was you, not me.
Response: this swapper is impossible , really she is . I sent first pkg and it got lost which happens on occasion then I sent her a second pkg and she was not happy with what I sent , then she wanted an amazon electronics card . Sorry but Im not sending a 3rd item and I for one think she has a give me give me mentality sadly . I refuse to give in to extortion and that is what this swapper is an extortionist holding ratings over your head . Im a retired social worker and have seen this mentality with many clients and they are so used to hand outs they don't know any different . sad but true ...Hope you are happy and God bless you . charming is she not ? He or she doth protest too much .

Comment: I'm somewhat confused. I received your cat bookmark (nice!) and story but you stipulated in the swap to look at book an chose ten words and write a story. You don't tell me anything about a book you chose or the words. Also I don't know if your story is your own true story or a fictional one. If it's yours, you have my sympathy, if it's fiction I waited for a bit of plot and found none. Since you wrote the swap description, I'll give you a 5 even though I'm not sure you followed your own directions.
Response: if you will read the swap it did not stipulate that you had to tell the book or the words you used . it was pure fiction . sorry you were confused . I think maybe you did get confused . sorry if it was confusing ... here is the swap description : In this swap you will pick the closest book to you and go to page 37 and pick out ten words and make a story out of those 10 words . You will then send your partner (1) that story . Also along with that story you will send a bookmark (store bought only this time ) .I thought this would be a fun swap . Now no 1's or 3's in the last year . Must have 4.98 or higher . no late sends either !!! I will check your profile and if you have any comments regarding late sends you will be banned from this swap . nothing personal just being a good swap host .You will have a week to do this and mail it . If you have any questions please pm me . thanks . Just thought I would add this also , even if you don't like the story don't rate down , rate accordingly if you receive your item . this story should be two pages long ... you can repeat the ten words as well .

I hope your gardening goes well this year! I haven't had a proper garden since our backyard got overrun by evil blackberry brambles. We're considering hiring some goats to clean it up.

And you've definitely sparked my gardening interest! I have never heard of dwarf tomatoes, but now I'm quite curious. May have to see if we can find some seeds or a seedling around here to grow one. We want to grow some tomatoes this year anyway, so this would be a great way to potentially go about it. Thanks for the idea!
