This one is prrof that my poor husband can't take me anywhere without me wanting to investigate plants!

Hello Kelly;
The pictures are wonderful, sunshine looks great. Just thought I would bump this up to keep it close to the top. Any ideas when we will be getting our first pal? I have all kinds of plant sales this weekend, some heritage gardens that might have great things to send if I knew what my pal wanted. What is our time frame? Thanks. diene

Thanks!

Kelly

Hey Kelly;
How come I do not see you in the list? You can't do all this work and not get involved. Send me your questionaire and address, I will take care of you this month and then someone else can do it next month. It will be an honor to be able to send a box to the hostess!! Thanks. diene

Hi Diene,
Nothing gets past you LOL Thanks so much for your generous offer and kindness. I left myself off so I would be sure everyone was paired up and settled in before me. Now I am the odd girl out! No partner (sigh...boo hoo). I'll email you privatly *but* I will also send you a surprise too!

Thanks for thinking of me,
Kelly

Hello Kelly;
Do not send me a box, you will wind up covering for someone at some point during this exchange. I feel badly saying that but I have not been involved in a single one of these that has not had a default. I have your questionaire and I have the time and interest right now. Next month you may have an even number or someone else might want to send an extra box. It will all work out. Thanks for your work setting this up, I have never had the ambition to take one of these on. diene

I received my info. Also Beth I sent an email back to you. Let me know if you got it. I sometimes have problems with email from gardenweb for some reason. Hope everyone had a good weekend~Heather

Thank you Diene,
I'm an optimist so I hope that everyone follows through with the trades. I am prepared just incase.

Kelly

I just noticed this robin today; is it too late to join? Sounds like fun! If it's too much trouble, I totally understand (I've hosted a robin before...) I will await a response and then get my info across asap.

Amanda 'romando'

Hi Amanda,
Your welcome to join in!
Please email the info and I'll get you added.

Kelly

Hi Kelly,

I'm interested in joining also if you have room.

Liz

Hi Liz,
Your welcome to join us. Please email your questionaire to me asap.

Thanks,
Kelly

If there is room for one more I would love to join.

Melody

Hi Melody,

Please email me with your questionaire answers and I'll get you added.

Thanks,
Kelly

I just saw this today, am I too late to join???
Thanks, Glenda :)

hugs, sheila

Hello Kelly;
You may want to start a new thread as they get cranky when the threads get more than 100 messages. You can just start a new post and call it Update Getting to know you. I hope to have my box out next week. I see you are all set this month. Let me know if you need help fulfilling obligations. Happy June to all. diene

I received a very nice box today from debya from Ill. I got some mammoth sunflower seed, plant markers, baggies for seeds, a new Better homes and garden magazine, a wind sock and a darling nite light, It is Porcelain wth pink roses,very pretty, I've tried it already, and the cutiest garden bag to tote your things to the garden. The print is of garden veggies and flowers,it has six pockets in which to put your garden tools in,This will be very handy I love it it is so cute. Thank you Debbie very much. Ann

Hi Everyone,
Please use the new thread for updates and any additional posts. I don't want to have anyone upset if this thread gets too big.
I am exhausted today, I'll probably be scarce for the next couple of days too. My Grandmother had to be taken to the emergency room late last night because we found her slumped over her bed and unresponsive. The Doctors think she may have had another stroke. This will be her 3rd in 3 weeks. She's waiting to get into surgery for a 90% blockage in her Carotid Artery. I'm off to bed for the day.
For those of you who pray, please keep Jeri Newton in your prayers.
Thanks Kelly

Amybabyboy sent me a WONDERFUL package including LOTS of awesome seeds, some candy I can actually eat (sugar free!), garden gloves, some adorable Nicotiana plants, hand cream, hazelnut coffee, and a precious hummingbird feeder!!! THANK YOU AMY I love all of it!!! Your box is leaving Nebraska tonight and I hope you enjoy it!!! Hugs, Sheila
