    I'd love to play! Disclaimer: Box will likely be sent closer to March 17...just so my 'pal' knows up front. I'll still be recovering from my Mardi-Gras celebration, which is why I'm not participating in OBF for February...but I should be good-to-go by mid March!

    Hi Cheri 2007. We would love to have you. We'll break you in to round robins and swaps! Send me an e-mail direct, because you have your blocked where no-one here can reply to any of your posts. You can go into your members page and change that. It would be helpful for you, and for others you swap and trade with.

    Here is our current line- up ladies! It's a big one!

    Hello Tina et al
    I started shopping for this swap yesterday. There is a chain of stores called "The Christmas Tree Shoppe" and they have some of the neatest stuff. I had a blast there yesterday and left with four big bags of stuff. I buy alot of my bulbs there as they sell them cheap. They had bulbs yesterday but with snow on the ground and a minus 11 wind chill, I did not feel they should be coming home with me just yet. Hope everyone is well. I am getting excited for this to start. diene

    Diene - Sounds like you are all prepared! I've heard of that shop, but we don't have one around here. I would love to run across one!

    Hi ladies - I found out today that I don't have tonsillitis, I have strep throat. We do believe that the strep (bacteria) has been raoming my body since mid November (which explains all the aches and pains and illness, 'BOUT TIME eh!!!)
    This afternoon I hit bottom and am feeling like death warmed over.
    I am on antibiotics, etc. etc. so hope to start feeling better soon.
    I will assign partners as soon as I am feeling a bit better. Hang in there and wait for me :-)

    My apologies for being delayed and not posting much.

    Hugs,
