1 week to go!

Hi everyone! I hope you have all enjoyed SP8 as much as I have! I can't believe there is just 1 week to go before SP8 is over! I want to remind you that if you haven't sent out your last pacakge, to please do so now. If there are any pals out there who haven't received anything yet, and you haven't talked to your hostess, please e-mail them now. Some of the participants are sending only one package, and that is absolutely fine, it jsut needs to be sent before the end of next week. IF you are only sending one package, please spend the extra dollar to get delivery confirmation and send the number to your hostess. Again, I hope you have had a great time! Don't hesitate to e-mail your hostess or myself if you have any questions/concerns.
