I sit here with my head hung down.
I was so excited to get started trading that I missed some of the basics.
I don't get to come 'online' till late in the evening when I can borrow my Aunt's computer at her work because my computer only gets email... no web browsing.
Therefore, I don't get to scan the forums too much. Tonight has been an eye opener but unfortunately it came a bit late as I have already made some trades and sent out one SASE envelope... all wrong I might add.
Well, the trades I have made were kind of cushioned by a pkg of tea (I hope that will protect the seeds).
I did not have them hand cancelled nor did I use bubble wrap. = (
Thank you all for the wonderful tips and know that I am learning much in the wee hours of Wed night and Thur morning.
It is my sincere hopes that the pkgs I have sent out will arrive in good condition and that Gardendragon will forgive my 'oops' with the SASE... I did not include an envelope because I had a frame of mind that it was postage which I sent.. never thought to add the names of the seeds nor my email address since we have corresponded several times already...
I would also hope that when and if I do something wrong or could do it better, that the receipent would email me and offer me the tips to improve. How else are we supposed to learn... right?
I DO eventually learn hehehehe.
I think that I am a very approachable type person who is more than willing to learn and easy to get along with. I will admit though that with tending to my terminally ill grandmother and with 6 people (3 individual families) living in one house, things get kinda crazy and I might not be as organized as I would wish. Tonight I have printed out some papers that will help me with the info on the trades so that I am not totally in the dark as I was with Gardendragon... (BTW..thank you sooo much for being patient with me... = )
Keep on posting so that we who are new to this can learn and then one day, help someone else through the learning process.
Thanks again to you all for the helpful tips.
