Happy Belated Birthday, Tera!
I think I need to start March over. I've forgotten I don't know how many birthdays this month!

[Tera, First Chick]

I know I am late on this. Supposedly the deadline for sending things out is tomorrow. Gonna revise this because my week got all thrown off starting last week. I will get names out to everyone this weekend and post a revised schedule then also. Thanks for being patient with me.

[Cindy]

Tera, I think you're amazing to coordinate all of this for the group with everything else you have going on in your life! Thanks so much!

[Meg]

I second what Cindy said

[Kristie]

[Corinna]

Yes, thanks for organizing this, and no worries about the revision! Have a good weekend!!

[Tera, First Chick]

Okay BIG update. I have the following 20 chicks that have sent me their information. PLEASE read through this. Because I only counted you if you sent me the filled out information. HOWEVER, some of you sent me the information sans your address. If your name as ** next to it then you did not send me an address and I cant give your name to someone until I have an address. I know I have some of your addresses from previous things but I dont want to assume thats where you still are or where you wish things to be sent so please check the list.

If there is no ** next to your name then I have all I need.
If your name is not on the list and you want to participate you have until end of day Sunday to get ALL info to me.
If your name has ** to it please send me the address you wish to use asap.

Thanks,
tera

Thanks for messaging me, Tera...so that email popped up. I worked all weekend and didn't have time to check in here. So excited to shop and ship!

[Tera, First Chick]

I'm going to wait another day or two and if I don't have all the addresses by then Ill just go with those that I do have. I hate to keep you all waiting.

[Bloomin’Chick (Jo) aka The Eclectic Spoonie]

No worries!

[Meg]

And the hunt for the perfect gift begins . . .

[Kathryn]

Tra la la - off I go, this is such fun.....

[Usako]

The ideas are rambling through my head. I didn't hit the store for pieces. I'm still debating on my choices :)

[Bloomin’Chick (Jo) aka The Eclectic Spoonie]

Heehee! This is so much Fun!

[Adrienne]

I got the perfect gift. hehe
but, can I include a note disclosing who I am???

[Kathryn]

Picked up a couple of things today.....fun, fun, fun!!

[Bloomin’Chick (Jo) aka The Eclectic Spoonie]

Adrienne wrote: "I got the perfect gift. hehe

Yes, of course! That's what we did last year though we tried to "hide" where it was coming from on the outside of the package!

[Adrienne]

i won't be able to hide. it's coming from Canada. hehe

[Monica]

Can't wait to do a little shopping tonight!!! *wink*

[Bloomin’Chick (Jo) aka The Eclectic Spoonie]

Good point! Guess putting the Chick's name in the To and From won't change the postage, lol!

[Adrienne]

this is serious fun.

[Elizabeth (Alaska)]

Yep, Jo, it's not like a secret gift exchange at the office. ;-)

[Bloomin’Chick (Jo) aka The Eclectic Spoonie]

This is Better than Secret Santa's at the office Elizabeth! Way better! lol Agreed Adrienne!

[Corinna]

I'm sooo excited. Thinking of things...let's see, she likes X, and X and X.....NO NOT XXX stuff....hahahaha! Oh geez, feel sorry for the girl I'm sending to...feel very sorry for her! j/k :) SO FUN!

[Marsha]

[Elizabeth (Alaska)]

I went to the post office today for my secret friend - getting the package ready was so fun! - and also for paperbackswap. I've been really busy with mailing PBS books this month and will look forward to reaping the benefits.
