Greetings! I wish this could be a post on a lighter note but unfortunately, it is not. I am posting because I am one of the people who responded to Kym Zorn Longs' bartering for hammocks offer. I responded by happy emails and homemade hammocks sent to her right after the weekend she had made the offer. I emailed her a few days after sending them priority mail to see if she had recieved them OK with no response. Because I do not like to pest people, I emailed her a total of maybe 3 times after sending them, all without a single response or simple "thank you." I do not mind helping people out when they need a helping hand, as long as the request is within my means, & I have a sewing machine and the materials, I like to do these things! =) It is all for a good cause, the fuzzies! I did read the explanation she sent directly to the FML regarding her injury and did appreciate knowing she didn't just fall off the face of the planet. But it was/is still no excuse as to why she couldn't email a "thank you" to those of us that went out of their way for her. I just considered it rude. And I no longer expect anything in the mail. I'll just consider what I sent a simple gift to her fuzzies. And after posting this, I will consider the matter closed for my behalf. Thank you BIG for letting me post this, I simply wanted to post publicly to the FML since I do not recieve any personal responses from her. ~Kat & My Fuzzbutts Sebastian & Sampson! [Moderator's note: I was unable to reach Kym for her comments and already held this post a day, so I guess the post goes in today. I'm sorry the original post on the FML caused so much trouble for many people. BIG] [Posted in FML issue 3368]
