Noooooooo, I don't have adult ADD. Hmpf (lol).

I'm just creative, can't you see...and I love to party!

When everyone was sharing their collections, I just thought "hmmm, these are some fun tips for gift ideas for these ladies....Let's do something with that!"

I didn't even get the Dots' to say we could do this - but she's pretty easy!

My daughter in particular has my gift (of loving people, being intuitive)....it is fun to share these characteristics together!

d.

P.S. please do not forget to give me your email. This is how I will be sending out the Christmas Card list!

I'm waiting until tomorrow when I finally get my long-awaited high-speed Internet connection...that should make my browsing experience much more enjoyable. It will also change my email address, thus the wait.

I've been hunting all over my house for a white elephant...no can do. Guess I'll have to go pink after all.

Danita, this is all well and good by me. My only fear is women feeling left out! That saeems to be an occasional problem in the fourms and I don't want that to happen. Thoughts?

Dots,

I've thought of that.

Firstly (if there is such a word...lol), everyone who wants to participate private messages me....their email and address.

Secondly, I will put together the list for Christmas cards, and knowing the kinds of women that are on this site -- this won't be a "6th grade card exchange". In other words, we will send cards to EVERYONE on the list. (not a requirement, but a suggestion!).

The gift exchange (white or pink elephant, whatever suits you)...I will match people together via a drawing.

I don't know how somebody can get left out, unless they don't sign up to participate.

danita

Danita Darling...Well as you know we are getting new people daily and how or when do you set a cut off date??? Someone is going to be left out for sure. I am not clear on the card idea. Are we sending you our street address's and then you relay them to everyone or what? Seems a might confusing to me, hey maybe I have ADD?
I hate to be a party pooper but this idea seems destine for failure in many ways. Write me with the secifics please....I'm confused. [Eek!]

Dear befuddled,

I get all the addresses of those who want to participate....

I compile them into a list....I email them to all who are participating on Dec 11. Also on Dec. 11th - I will match white elephant partners.

The cut off date will be Dec. 10th.


This COULD be a failing endevor (or HOWEVER you spell that word)...but we will not know until we try!

hugs,
danita

I've been on other lists where it was done successfully, and I never heard of any hurt feelings. Those who wanted to participate, did. Of course, those lists had a lot fewer people participating.
