How is this doing? I know Flyawaybirdie sent it with tracking…

Frolic sent a message and the teabox is there. Also, everyone keep in mind I don’t think e-mail alerts for messages are working even though it seems like everything else is on Steepster right now. Hmm.

Well not really enjoying per say but it’s still here…

I just got hit with the flu so it’ll probably be another week till I can send it out. I’m trying not to touch anything and basically just quarantine myself for now cause it’s particularly nasty strain. :( It’s just been a crazy month .

My sincerest apologies.

Sorry to hear you’re sick! Feel better soon! Thanks for the update.

Frolic, I hope you are feeling better. It has been quite a while with this teabox though.

I was just wondering about this tea box. Hope everything is ok.

I have not received the box nor have I been told it is on its way. Still waiting for news on it.

So… is this box MIA?

I’m alive. My life is a mess but the teabox is intact and I’m alive so that’s what counts. I am so so sorry for all of this.

Thanks for the update. You being alive is definitely the most important thing! If you are busy and just want to send the box as is, that’s fine.

Did TraceyC ever receive this box? There hasn’t been an update on it in awhile.

Frolic said it would be in the mail this week. I will let you all know when I receive it.

Awesome. I was just curious.

It’s packed, labeled, and ready to drop of at the post office tomorrow.

My sincerest apologies but I wasn’t able make a list of what I took and what I added. the big un-labled bag on top of the package are my additions. They are equal or a smidgen more than what I took and I think they are a good mix of tea types to keep the box diverse.

I’m so overwhelmed by life which is a swirl of doctors appointments and hospitals right now. I kept thinking I could do this tomorrow. But something always came up tomorrow.

I figure sending it out this way is imperfect but much better than me keeping it until I could do it just right.

Thank you for sending it on. Again, I’m hoping for the best for you and your family. I’m very sorry.

Yeah! I bought unflavored teas just for this box, so I’m glad it’s still making its way along.
