Hurt or betrayed I couldn't decide which and so I am saying both. Why well most of you who know me also know that I spend far too much time on UKS.
I recently decided to join just my team advent swap this year and not the main one due to the fact that Rhiannon was due her surgery on 1st December and would have follow ups throughout and Ffion had specialist appointments too. So joining the team swap would be best as if anything did go wrong at least it would be with a friend as opposed to someone I didn't know....right.
So I packaged up my parcel and sent it RD on the last day of November and apologised for being last minute. My teamie replied that she had been busy at work and would not actually get to post until the 2nd......fair enough. So for almost 2 weeks I have waited in, cursed RM, worried myself stupid that something has happened to Hazel or her kids.
I really must be so stupid.....last night I get told by a very reliable source that I am not the only person who didn't get their swap but also the person she was supposed to post to in the main swap got the same tale and is still waiting and she has just been given negative feedback for it.
OMG how bad do I feel now.
Well the answer is hurt really hurt and betrayed and also sad......its not all about what I should have had and haven't but about the fact that I have been wasting my time worrying about what might or might not have happened to a friend - I know she is okay and I'm a nice person so why am I not worth a stamp to be told. I really have enough on my plate at the moment without worrying over someone who quite obviously wouldn't spare me the same sentiment. Its made me decide to leave UKS as I need to be away from this for now at least. If a complete stranger had not sent to me well I could have accepted that but I can't get my head around this.
Anyhow I will be around for a few days tying up loose ends with swaps and things and think everyone who needs to contact me knows how.......If I missed anyone Fi (Scrappybunny) has the means to do so.
And yes I know there are loads of really nice people on UKS and I have always tried to help anyone I can if I have been able to. Heck I am closer to some people on there than I am to my relatives.
Well done if you managed to make it to the end. LOL
As for getting over this yep I will but I don't need friends like that.
If I do receive a parcel date 2nd December of cours I will make a full apology but I won't be holding my breath.

Jemm, I for one will feel very sad to see you leave.
Hope the girls get on okay.

Oh god I feel sick to my stomach for you.
You are without doubt one of the most kind and generous people I know, and it knocks me sick everytime people take the 'p' and let you and your kids down which is exactly what has happened in the past.
I am that angry I can't find words to explain how angry I am.
Love ya loads xxxxxxxxxx
Its horrible when something like this happens and knocks your faith in others. You take good care, have a great Christmas and hope to see you back on UKS in the New Year X

Hi!
Have only just seen this - had no idea all this was going on. Was this to do with what you wanted info for??? I shall really miss you, although will hope you will be back in time for the next CC, LOL:D
I've not met a friendlier person, and hate that people are treated in such a way.
You take care of yourselves - I'll pm you my email addy in case you ever want a chat.
Lots of love to all the family
Bernie & Annie! XXXOOO
OMGosh!! i've only just seen this and cant believe i didnt know ill now, esp as i am/was a host for the advent swap. Hazel wasnt in my group but i did know she didnt send her package, and also was involved in another swap where she hadnt posted either. I didnt know it was you. I thought it was really horrible and worse that it was two packages.... so she gets to have 2 packs of goodies and two people have nothing!! and you have even less as she was a friend. I am so sorry you have felt to leave uks, you know how much you have helped me and my family and that was thru uks ... i'm waffling and dont want to go on too much here, please phone/text/email me xxx
