Hello, my name is Tom and Margaret is my wife. She has explained to me how to post so if I do this incorrectly, please understand.

I apologize for my wife's lack of response, but she is very, very ill in the hospital. She has asked me to check as many of her emails and inboxes as I can and let you know that if she needs to send you something, she will try to explain to me how to do it. I'm not a pin collector, she is, and I'm not familiar with what she is doing. I have managed to find all the emails, but I may need information from some of you as to what I need to ship you and where. Our apologies, but she has lupus and sometimes it just knocks her out. We are trying to keep her calm, but she worries about these pins, way too much in my opinion. I hope you can forgive her for the lateness and not be angry with me for being unable to figure this out.

Tom Petrilla, wife of Margaret Locken
Her screen name is swim2sea

Sent Magaret an email earlier. Sorry to hear that she has been really ill :( wishing her lots of love and hope that she feels better soon.

The delay is not a problem at all. I think she knows what pins to send. If unsure - they are the Jasmine Spinner Cameo Pin and the Jasmine Star Autograph pin.

Wishing Margaret a speedy recovery x
 
Oh, no! Please pass along my prayers and pixie dust along to Margaret. She is a friend of mine, and an excellent trader/seller. You should be very proud to be married to her. I hope she gets better VERY soon!
 
I'm sitting here with Margaret and she says thank you for all the pixie dust (whatever that is). She also says stop typing my own comments. She wanted to say:

"Sorry I'm so far behind on sending everyone their pins. I'm not a bad trader and this was beyond my control. I'll have Tom send them this week. (My comment: if I can figure it out). I'm sorry my hubby isn't a pin trader, heaven knows I've tried for years, but no luck. He is just not catching on to how it works. Please thank Nikki for the zap. It made my day when he brought the pins up to visit me. They only let me keep one or two so of course I kept Alice. I hope to be home next week and slowly getting back into the swim of things. I miss posting and talking to everyone. Have a great weekend."
 
Hey Margaret! I am so sorry you are still stuck in the hospital. I hope you feel better and can come home really soon. No worries on the delay. I am so excited to see my Alice when she gets here so it gives me something to look forward to. I hope you have been able to check out your queen and you like her. :D Feel better soon and don't stress yourself over the delays!

Margaret- I hope you feel better soon! Not to worry, pin trading will be here when you return! We miss you enthusiasm!
 
You're doing great Tom! Thanks for all the updates and being so understanding of how she feels about the pins. She is a great part of this community. :)
