Please make sure everyone's blogs are added to your blog in a list on your sidebar. Check in with everyones blog atleast once a week. Leave them comments of encouragement!! 4. We will occasionally post card challenges for you to be a part of. We ask that everyone tries the challenge. This allows for great inspiration and allows your creative juices to flow. 5.

Who is going to check in first and receive a little gift goodie from me???
|
I'm here! Yay :) Love the new name!!
|
Whoo hoo and you win a prize for being the first to check in. ;-)
|
Oh yea, I put the new badge on my blog. If you are not able to copy it from there let me know and I'll shoot it to you in an email.

Hi Lesley welcome to you too!!!
|
Got the new badge posted :)
|
You guys are on top of things today!!!
|
Whoo hoo! I made it!!
Still trapped at the DMV. I've been here for over 1.5 hrs. Ugh! |
That is only $30/week. Is it 5 days/week?? If it is then it is only $6 a class.
That isn't too bad if you think about it. They have a boot camp in my neighborhood but they don't put the price. I'm too wussy to try it. hahahahaha Hmmmmm....wonder if we should have our own boot camp!? __________________ Only if I can be the instructor....I'd love a new way to get my aggression out!!! |

April, do I detect a little "mwaaaaa?"
Evil! lol |
Okay, I updated my blog with everything...I think!!! I had to figure out how to even get into my blog because Rodney doesn't have a translator on this computer and of course everything wants to come up in German and I don't know German!! But I figured it out!!
|
I just had a crazy idea...
If any of you love to read, we should start our own book club on Goodreads.com Would anyone else be interested in something like that? We can take turns picking the books we're going to read and then we can chat about them afterwards. We could do just 1 book a month or something. I can start the group if anyone else would be interested in something like that. I love to read, but I never have anyone I can talk about the books with, lol. The only other person close to me that reads a lot is my bil and sometimes we do swap books, but you know how guys are....you don't get much discussion from them hahaha |
Jenny I LOVE to read also but I'm a slow reader. ;-) We could set a month goal and then I can chat about the 5 chapters I read. LOL!!!! J/K, if anyone else is interested I'm in, I think its a neat idea.
|
That would be fun. I really would love to start reading again. It's been a while since I sat and actually read through a whole book! I used to read non stop! I surely think we'd/I'd need a month, just with having so much other stuff going on in life it would be hard for me to accomplish it any sooner I'm afraid. Who know's though I may end up sitting down, really liking the book and getting through it in 3 days!
|
April you have been in Germany for 4 years and you don't know how to speak and read German. :rolleyes: My oh my!!! LOL!!!! j/k :cool:

Hi ya Nancy, welcome to our new home!!
|
So lets do it Jenny, that is 3 of us that are interested. ;-) We'll just see who else is all onboard. I know there are others in the group that read too. Just know that if you choose a really scray thriller I probably won't read it because I get awful freak out moments from books like that. :? I know, I'm a wooose!!!

I love to read. Count me in too!
|
Whoo hoo, good idea Jenny!!
|

Here's the group I made : Paper Princesses
It's set on private so once you make a profile ask to be my friend so I can invite you. |
Do we have a new banner to go along with our new group???
|
Shall I just pick the first book, or do we want to have a vote on a few choices?
|
Ok ladies, I found a book that sounds really neat, so I just added it to the group, to give everyone who wants to participate time to get it by Sept 1st. Don't feel you have to buy the books every month either, because I just take mine out of the library :)
If no one else is interested in this book, don't worry about hurting my feelings, we're much more likely to read a book we're interested in so I'm open to suggestions! I hope you all join in the fun, I can't wait! |

Okay, I go to work (and can't get on the 'puter at all while I'm there!) and you all start a new thread, with a new name and a book club!!!!! Wow! I've got to stay home more!!! hahahahaha
Jenny, I'm totally in on the book club. I'm with Melanie though, I'm a super slow reader. I hope to have 3 chapters read in a month Mel!!! hee hee hee You just scared the poop out of me! I was thinking...um...was I suppose to send a kit to Melina and I forgot!!! But I just found the post and your in the other group. I had an extra kit for some reason and couldn't figure out why so then when I saw your post I was like...crap I forgot to send one! But I'm good right? I wasn't suppose to send to you right?! See...now you have me second guessing myself...LOL! __________________ I brought this over from the old thread. It's a post from April. No, April you don't send me anything. I was just saying "I can't wait to see the image" b/c I don't know what it is and I'm anxious to know!!!! I can't wait!!!! We'll see everybody's though in 7 days!!!!! WOOOO! WHOOOO! :D |

I am already signed up! Do we want to vote on books or rotate who picks out the book???? |
Melanie, is there anyway you could put these two things in the first post?
------------------- Image Swap (remaining months) August ~ Colleen September ~ Moira October ~ Terria November ~ Lesley Send 5 images to each of the image swap participants: AnnMarie, Melanie, Marsha, April, Melina, Colleen, Moira, Terria, & Lesley Remember 1/4 sheets white c/s in water proof ink. Images are your choice. Try to have them mailed by the 10th of the month. Thanks! -------------------- Competing Princesses! Team 1 Moira ~ Team Captain April - August hostess Colleen - September hostess AnnMarie - October hostess Lesley Team 2 Nancy ~ Team Captain Melanie - August hostess Terria - September hostess Melina - October hostess Hostesses mail kits to each of their team members including their Team Captain. Kit includes 2 or 3 images stamped on white cardstock in waterproof ink, 1 ~ 6x6 piece of dp, 2-3 embellishments, 1 sentiment. Mail by the 20th of the previous month (if you're October hostess, mail by Sept. 20). Everyone posts their completed cards on their blogs the 20th of the month (ex.: Melina mails out her kits to her team members in September. Her team members should complete a card with the kit she sends, she will complete a card also, and then everyone posts their card on October 20). ------------------- Also, since we're doing the book club too, can you post the link to our group in the first post too? Thank you!!!!!!! |

I picked one for Sept, but I don't mind getting out-voted if no one else is interested in it. |
Nancy - was looking at your list of books and I see you're a fan of Dean Koontz :) I love his books too!

Hi all! I think I have my blog all updated. Also, I mailed out my images for the image swap Wednesday I think so you should be getting them soon.
Jenny, I might be interested in the book club - I love to read, but have not read much since the baby was born. My local library does not have that book, but I may participate in Sept if I can get it somewhere. |
