*New thread started**Sevierville, TN
 

There are some organizing shoebox swaps and other side things, but mostly to meet and just have fun together stamping, gabbing and of course Shopping the outlet malls.

We have identified a hotel that has plenty of rooms and a conference room for Saturday. People will make their own reservations with the hotel. SEE ATTACHEMENT BELOW FOR RESERVATION ONFORMATION

EACH GROUP WILL BE RESPONSIBILE TO MAKE AND MANAGE THEIR OWN RESERVATION AND GROUP, PAY DEPOSITS ETC. Our purpose here again is to coordinate the gathering location.

Please just post to the thread when you have made your reservation so we can keep track of the blocked room needs. Also, if you are a single looking for a roommate feel free to post that as well. Let's help some singles group up so it is affordable to all.

This is going to be exciting!

Good morning Ellen,

Just saw we moved I was wondering about that. I will put that now under my signature so that people don't get confused. What's your plan for today?
Janet

Mom got in AOK and was sleeping soundling when I left. Today I am off at noon. We are coming back into the city so I can show them around the campus and sites. Not a hectic day today, just relax and sitesee.

Lynette, do you access Dr. Muller site often? I don't read his stuff much but I have a few people that forward me his blogs once in awhile. I especially liked his article on children with "Down's Syndrome" we were planning on adopting a Down's child but they just aren't available anymore.
Janet

Morning girls!!!
Nope, I don't even know who he is...I get a daily inspirational quote and his was for today.....I will check out his site though..sounds interesting!!!

Hey janet..I just checked out your swap...I want to join!!! BUT your snowman list is full...will you add?? If so, I will hop over there and sign up!!!! WOOHOO!!! I LOVE Snowmen!!! Come Thanksgiving (which is when I decorate for Christmas) my house is FULL of snowmen!!! Most of my ornaments on my tree are snowmen!!!! I like to use them because you can keep them out ALL winter long!!!!

I have edit option here Lynnie so we should be good to go. You and I, Sara and baby Lee need to decide on a cabin and if we can take in singles and get signed up. Set an example. I am leaning toward Superbowl weekend. I think we have a chance of bad weather anywhere from January thru April so we just need to pick a day and go for it! I can get the "flu" if I need a few more days .) I think softangelwings was looking for a roomy. Let us know.

Sure thing I will add you. I had 20 numbers and only 3 people and it looked kind of strange so I took off the numbers.
Janet

Hey now don't forget about the three of us in TN. That is how this got started.
Janet

HUH?

WooHoo!! Glad you finally got things figured out!!! I thought you might have a stroke yesterday!!! LOL
I'm game for anytime!!!! All the cabins are wonderful!!! Doesn't matter to me which one we choose!!!

OK..i signed up!!!!

LOL...we could never forget out TN gals!!!!

BTW, just for fun ran this by DH last night (I know a little late) but he was like "Why?" I said "to get away from husbands and kids and scrap for a weekend" He said " oh, well have fun" Whooohooo. Even though he won't remember this conversation in Feb I have it down here in writing :)

Keep up Ellen!!!!! LOL (see post 6)

For my snowman image swap. Check it Ellen it is on my signature.
Janet

OK OK, not enough coffee yet. I usually knock down several cups before I leave the house and this morning slipped out so not to wake anyone. BRB going for double dose. :) Carry on until I return.

She'll be having tremors in an hour!!! LOL

My DH can't remember yesterday's conversations. So I told him about Memphis and I told him about Gatlinburg and he was like OK have fun. But he won't remember either and I need him to take off to Oct 3 & 4 to take care of Michael.
I hope he remembers that. I have to email him at work to remind him and also watch him put things in his palm if I want him to really remember anything.
Janet

I don't think they "forget", I think they don't listen!!!!!

Yeah no kidding Janet. My DH was supposed to pick mom up at the airport yesterday at 11:30 and at 11:00 he calls me and says "What day is your mom coming in?" I nearly came unglued! But he managed to get over there and pick her up, standing like an abandonded waife on the sidewalk! Way to go Dwight....make points with MIL LMAO

Been there...that is why he got a palm...for really important things a little alarm goes off...of course my boys swear their dad is deaf...
Janet

When do you know this is an addiction?
Is it when you hope your company goes to bed early so you can check the website once more before you go down ? :twisted:

I think it when your husband decides to go for a run while waiting for you and he gets back and you are still on the computer.
Janet

It's when you do nothing at work but check threads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hear ya Lynette LMAO! :lol:

My baby boy I watch is coming soon. I have to get off this computer and actually do something. I will check back with y'all later.
Janet

Have a good day.

See ya Janet!!! Have a good one!!!

What time are we leaving on the 3rd...didn't hear anything yet?

Sherri

Ok, I am ready to go now...My dh doesn't care...all he thinks about is he will have the house and TV all to himself. I think he is more excited than I am. I leave in September for Maryland (birth of first grand-child) and the two little ones are going with me (I home school) and all he can think about is, make sure there is food for me and I will fly up when the baby is born and fly home a fews days later. We very seldom have a quiet house.

Hey, girls if you get a chance check out my 1st time swap...Let's Be Thankful. I always send Thanksgiving cards to my resident's back in Maryland...they live at the retirement community I use to work at. They look forward to cards every month. I try!
Sherri

Yahoo a 2009 NC planning in the mountains! I will post this link for the other NC Gals too! Goodness, I will need to find someone who has 4 wheel drive :)

Oh my I just goggled it from my location and it is 6 hours away!!!

Okay gotta hit the shower - chat with you all later!

Yeah, it is a good ways away....that is why we would carpool (me have 4x4) and take turns driving!!!!

Yeah Helloooo! More like 7 or eight for me, so no whining in NC LOL

Should I take it your at work checking in on the chatter? LOL

Sherri

Addicted to sitting at my computer checking out all the swaps. If I don't stop I won't be able to stamp. Ellen how was your site seeing? My boys are swimming in the rain...No not singing...swimming...thank goodness there is no lightening.
