Vicki, please let me know when you receive mine. I am getting a little worried since I mailed it on Oct. 1st. I know it had to travel a ways but still, I thought it would be there by now.
I have been remiss in posting here. I apologize. I just got home from a glorious road trip with my DIS friend Dayna and I'm still catching up on the home chores. I did receive my second key ring exchange while I was away! I received three great key rings from Steve and Colleen. (sorry, I didn't have your DIS name) I got a great "flip-flop" key ring from their new local Jimmy Buffett restaurant. How cool is that?!?! :) Then they gave me two key rings from the places where they work and used to work. Those are special, too-kind of personal attachments there. Thank you so much!! :teeth:
