Just want to say that a couple weeks ago it took 9 days for a package with delivery confirmation and priority mail to get from me to Veeja. It was worrisome but neither priority postage nor delivery confirmation guarantees Anything. I believe that "Express mail" does guarantee the length of transit time but that is really expensive.
Delivery confirmation at least proves that you did mail it.

Debbie..sent me a confirmation# in the mail,(she forgot to put it on the package...but I haven't received any package yet...just the envelope with the confirmation# Thanks,Jody

Beth - you are absolutely correct - but when it's really not that far - and was sent priority - that they would at least have something in place to fill out BEFORE 14 business days. Their attitude was just as flip - but we are at their mercy.

I know it will make it - but I hate the wait......

Looks like it's back on track!

Thanks for allowing me to participate!

Deb

Hi Debbya..at least I don't feel so bad getting mine out so late..lol..I'm glad yours got out a couple days late also,that makes me feel a little better,but I'm really still am sorry about it..but there's nothing I can do when I get sick/ill/feel like dying...Hep C really can get you down,now it's starting to attack my joints and causing my osteoarthritis..which for me is very painful...I had fun with this one..I love sending extras..
Debbya..Thanks for the private e-mail,I'm glad you liked the extra hen and chicks,dragon's blood sedum and heirloom veggies seeds I sent you...I love sending goodies to people...I love surprises and I think everyone else does also..I hope the veggie seeds do well for you :-)
Happy Gardening Everyone...Oh I forgot to post what I took from the baggie and since I have sooo many seeds I was taking a big gamble on joining this Robin...I did find a few goodies..I think I took out about 10 pks and added about 50 plus the extras I sent Deb in a diffeent baggie..what ever you don't want from the heirlooms I hope you passed on someone might want them.I also saw several Robins day before yesterday,about 30 in a group...only a few miles east of me,I haven't seen any here at home
yet..:-(
I'm getting Lots of Gold Finches I started feeding thistle when we had that ice storm and I knew the birds were going to be dying since they couldn't get any food at all it was all frozen solid...I'm glad I had 5 lbs. of it and a giant bag of sunflowers seeds,because I tried to buy another bag when i went to town a few days later after I could get out of my driveway,that took 3 days..anyway they are starting to find their thistle socks and feeders,Why does thistle cost Soooo much... :-( It's just not fair because not all birds eats sunflower seeds,and most people won't buy it or can't afford to feed it..bummer...before long I'll be able to tell the Gold Finches apart...who the boys and girls are...in the winter the boys look almost like the girls..but Hey once you get them and keep feeding them...some will stay all year round..:-)
I added way more seeds than I took out didn't you find anything good from the Robin Deb? you never mentioned anything here on the thread,and I started feeling guilty for not telling everyone what great seeds I picked out...thanks again DebbieC and mmqchdygg for starting this Robin..:-) Thanks again...Jody

Hi - Robin was received on Friday & will go out Monday afternoon. What a collection! I took some okra, arugula, liriope, & a few others, & added a bunch of stuff. One poor little pack must have broke open. I think it's poppy seeds! So be careful when you open it Alice! I had them all over the table by the time I was done :)
Thanks to everyone!
Maggie

Get ready Alice!

Anyone up for a little Pick-a-Seed Challenge?
Here's the stats:
Red is on #7 of 13
Blue is on #5 of 13
Green is on #5 of 13

We can pick up some SERIOUS speed once this thing hits New England...
Let's shoot for 24hr or less turnaround, and get this Robin back home before the Blue Team!

If we pick up enough speed, we might even catch the Red team!

Go Green!!!

I don't know about anyone else but that sounds like a throw down -

Debbie

Hi gang! Sorry, I've been waaaay behind the times in posting to the thread. I got the Robin yesterday, and it will be on the way to Barbi tomorrow. Lots and lots of goodies in there! Thanks for including me!! Jen

I got my info, just waiting on the robin! All ready to go!

Brenda

the robin landed at my door last night. however I worked a 12hr shift yesterday and didn't get a chance to look thru it before heading to bed. Hopefully I will get a chance to look thru it tonight and drop it off at the post office on sunday.

Barbi

This is when the robin should start to act like a ping pong ball!

Debbie

I dropped the package at the post office today after work. It's on it's way to you daff_knee2000!

Barbi

Hi Everyone,
Just checking in to let you know , I got all of my info and just waiting on the robin now. This is so much fun!

Jeanene

according to the post office dc tracking, the robin made it to daffknee yesterday.

Barbi

Daphne - we're waiting to hear from you??

Has anyone heard from Daphne? Haven't seen a post on this thread for a while..... just checking!

Brenda

I am sorry it looks as if the Robin may be a goner - I have written to Daphne several times with no responce. I have even offered to go and pick it up to get it on it's way. She has a responce on the board as to her excitement about receiving it and then nothing.... I am at a loss as to where to go from here, it's a matter of trust,

Hello Everyone,
Just checking in to see where the Robin is but I see there is a problem. Hopefully we will hear from Daphne soon. I'm looking forward to getting the Robin.
I hope all is well with Daphne and hope nothing has happened to prevent her from contacting us.

Jeanene

So much for trying to beat the red and green teams! lol! Hope we hear something soon! DAAAAAPHNEEEE where are yoooooouuu!

Don't feel too bad. The green robin has been taking a nap for a while too. Good thing there was no real race.
Beth

Heads up flowergardenlady your next!

Wow!! The Robin is moving fast now. I will be watching for it and will let you know as soon as it lands.

Jeanene

I have delayed the robin again girls. I am so sorry but I have been in the bed on and off for the last few days with a terrible headache from my allergies. For some reason they are trying to do me in this year! I will get it out first thing in the am. Was hoping to drop it in the mail on my way to the doctors office tomorrow, but they called me back and cancelled my appointment. So I will suffer all the way to the mailroom! LOL! Hope it gets there fast!

Brenda

I almost forgot to post the dc# 03060320000463120767

Thanks again to everyone!

The Robin has landed and it is a big one!! I will go through it and get it back in the mail tomorrow...I will post again after I mail it.

Jeanene

The Robin is back in flight. It's on the way to R. Jay.
Thanks so much everyone for letting me play, I've enjoyed it.
