    Hi Debbya,
    I would like to think you for all my beautiful goodies
    I can't want for the spring to start planning my
    seeds and bulbs. This will be my first time growing
    some of the items you sent. The Narcissus, I love the
    color of that flower. This will also be my first
    time using the Silicone backing items. There is so many
    nice things that you send me, I like to say thank you,
    thank you, thank you.
    Looking forward to swapping with you again.
    Debby I'm also happy to hear that your son is
    starting to fill better.

    I received my hostess gift from Remy yesterday. She sent an assortment of chocolates (always appreciated), a travel mug (I totally need one of these!) and a box of tulip bulbs (can never have too many!). Many thanks to Remy!

    Melissa~ Your candles are on their way. Sorry it took so long to get them out to you!

    April~ Your candles will go out tomorrow.

    This month's swap is going well. Sguanzon is the only person who has not posted that they received their package.

    Hope everyone has a great night!

    Hi All,
    I've been computerless for the last couple days! It seemed like years. I'm glad Gary finally got everything back and working.

    Jenell,
    I'm glad you finally got your gift!

    Melinda,
    About your mom...you probably remember, but I cried for her like I knew her. Being that she was sick while I was getting operated on and all really hit home for me, and I guess I made an attachment to her.
    There's nothing wrong with digging a hole and crying; it is good therapy! I know she would be happy to know you plan on winter sowing again : )

    Deb,
    From reading Gale's post I see your son is doing well. That's good. Hopefully now,he can get the toes permanently taken care of.

    Hope everyone else is well!

    HINT No one has guessed my shoe size correctly.

    Ooops! Ignore my last hint.... Someone did guess my shoe size correctly. No one has gotten both my shoe size and the bra question correct in the same answer....

  • dirt_under_my_nails
    16 years ago

    Hmmmm... wondering who got the shoe size right. I'll go back to my original 11(that's mine too)& guess 7 on the amount of bras.

  • remy_gw

    Lol!
    I'll re-guess size 10 and as far as I know 6 bras is correct. : )

    Gosh I can't believe I didn't post about receiving Theresa's box!!!

    I must've written it late when I was tired and then turned off the computer before I posted it -- I'm a big dummy!

    Therea thank you soooo much.

    I received a pink AND a purple rueilla. I love these, they are so easy to care for and one of the few flowering desert plants that I really really like. And a white antique climbing rose. (So thoughtful Theresa, I just love this).

    Also apple cinnamon potpurri (I have this in a basket by the back door so you can smell it when you go in and out). And Apple cinnamon scented facial mask (I love these homey smelling things!) and fall-themed pot holders (mine are geting so ratty - thanks!), carmel apple candy corn and very nice bath bubble beads and a thanksgiving sun catcher for my entry window.

    And a big Busy Persons Guide to 20 Minute Gardens book - boy does that describe me - will certainly come in handy.

    Thanks soooo much Theresa, have a wonderful Fall!!!

    I officially declare Remy to be the winner of Totally Random Trivia Part 3! Congratulations!

    Please let me know if you have any preference for candle scents and if you'd rather silver or gold earrings.

    I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

    YEAH! I won : )
    Jenell,
    Mellen has said what wonderful candles you make. I'm I would love most any. The only scent I wouldn't like is cucumber/melon because of my allergy, I find the smell yucky. Other food scents I do love though. And I get handmade earrings too?!! I'll go with silver.
    Thanks so much! : )

    Hello everyone-
    I don't mean to but in over here but I was wondering if anyone has heard from earthlydelights (Maryanne). She is in our Queen Of The Month Swap and I haven't been able to contact her. This is so unlike her I'm beginning to worry.
    Thanks
