    Could I please check in a little early?

    This is probably incredibly paranoid of me, but I'm worried that my toothache will get worse and for some reason I won't be able to get to the computer to check in XD

    I already have a gift made, although I hope to make something else to go with it before the gifting period starts :)

    Lovely Tanu,

    Can i check in early pls? I am proud to admit tt despite my RL issues i had completed my first gift,checked & game-proved it. :)
    But again i donot believe i can prepare something else :oops:
    Ofc i want to and try but cannot make promise :( So i want to say sorry to my buddy in advance. My only consolation-if i am unable to prepare something more- is it is not a small gift! :)

    Will keep you posted,wish you all lovely weekend!
    Although my work is awful,today my hubby is coming back fm abroad.So my mood shifts very rapidly today! ^^"

    BIG HUGS XXX

    I have to admit, I have had one problem with this exchange that I've never had before. It's been a little frustrating at times and well... even though I'm done with my gift and everything is ready to go, I'm still a little worried...

    th?id=HN.607998839033692990&pid=15.1

    You see, I keep getting ideas for my giftee! Things pop into my head and I think, "oh that would be a perfect little gift for my person!" so I make it! I think I have been done with my gifts 2 or 3 times now! I have to honestly say this has been the easiest and most enjoyable exchanges for me so far! Thank you!

    ....aaaand inspiration just struck for something completely different from what I was already working on. :lol: So now I have to go do that too! Anyway, can this count as my check in for Monday? Gonna be out of town visiting my in-laws for mother's day, and I don't want to accidentally forget to check in when I'm doing laundry and stuff Monday after we get back. ;)

    Thanks for the compliment Duy you are very Sweet :D You are now officially checked in. One gift is all that is needed so no apologies are necessary at all! Do not feel bad I'm sure your gift is something your buddy will really appreciate! I hope that work gets better and you enjoy time with your Hubby when he arrives! Warm Hugs!

    Sending you more hugs and prayers for you and your Uncle Baxter. I'm sorry this is such a tough time for him and for you.

    I've started taking pictures of the gifts I have done, thinking about starting another but I'm not sure what to create yet. Also trying to figure out what order I'm going to present in.

    How are you guys deciding how to present your gifts?

    Hi there! You could always go to the link on the front page first post and go back and see how people presented in other exchanges. Some choose to present here while others link to their creative thread and others start whole new gifting threads. It's all up to you and how you decide you would like to do it. But going back and looking will give you a pretty good idea. :D
