Happy Wednesday

Happy Wednesday to you guys too! I like Wednesdays at this time because I have grad classes Tues and Wed, so after the 2nd class it almost feels like a weekend knowing all that stuff is done for the week!!

I'm doing a Master's program at Northeastern... that's why I moved here, I just started a month ago. Classes are held down in Randolph.

I'm quite sure my friends will make the trip, we've driven farther to stamp with friends before! :cool: We'll make a whole weekend of it, we do enjoy "jammie stamping" after the official gatherings.

My in-laws live in Randolph. I work near the NU Boston campus

Yes, we want your NY friends to come, they sound like a lot of fun.

dg · 10-08-2009, 05:14 PM

Watch out! Chocolate rocks are addicting!! :twisted: Ask me how I know...

tiggerificandi · 10-09-2009, 04:37 AM

I think an altered notepad would be fine.

Glad Nancy and snow can join us! Send me a pm with your email address and I will send you the registration form!

tiggerificandi · 10-09-2009, 04:40 AM

Are any of you still interested in doing the silent auction to recycle your items you don't use or need anymore?

I also thought about adding a grab bag exchange for anyone interested. If you are interested let me know and I will add it to our gameplan for Oct 31.

PMR · 10-09-2009, 04:41 AM

I am so happy to meet new people. I better get moving on my gc holder!

philsmom · 10-09-2009, 06:33 AM

I don't know what chocolate rocks are but I can't wait to find out!

PMR · 10-09-2009, 06:43 AM

I think a grab bag would be fun. I have a few things that I could put in a silent auction. I could do one or both, whatever everyone else wants.

Are you confused??? THis is not the Scrapbox thread!!! LOL...

But I'm very excited for this gathering too, you girls are gonna LOVE the chocolate rocks! YUM!!!

I'm not sure if I will have silent auction items... depends on if I have time to go through some of my stuff, and I sold a bunch in the Spring. I'd definately bring a grab bag though, that's always fun.

snowcountry311 · 10-09-2009, 02:17 PM

grab bag is the same as our gift swap?
silent auction for the church?

norway76 · 10-09-2009, 02:20 PM

Yes about the grab bag, as far as I get it.

I think the silent auction is for you .... to sell things you no longer need or buy things from other gals. It's not being held at a church, Andi is opening her house to us!!

snowcountry311 · 10-09-2009, 02:27 PM

oh. guess i need to read the 1st few posts

Nah... .just get in Nancy's front seat! She'll do the rest. ;)

tiggerificandi · 10-09-2009, 02:51 PM

You make the money off the silent auction.

The grab bag I would guess sounds simlar to a gift swap. You put somewhere like $10 worth of items together at a door prize, and those that bring something get to be in the drawing to choose from the grab bag/gift swap/door prizes brought.

njbaker · 10-09-2009, 05:00 PM

Someone once said there is no stupid question, so I'm asking. How will you run the silent auction??? (besides silently...)

tiggerificandi · 10-09-2009, 06:08 PM

I would let you put the starting bid for your item. Then folks can bid until 2 PM on items. Winner pays out and takes their items when they leave. There would be increments of at least fifty cents on items.

snowcountry311 · 10-09-2009, 06:10 PM

are the increments seen by bidders?

tiggerificandi · 10-09-2009, 06:27 PM

Yep, they can just mosey into the room with the silent auction between projects during the day.

njbaker · 10-09-2009, 07:14 PM

Sounds fair........ thanks!
And the grab bag/gift swap is a go?? Approx. $10 value?

njbaker · 10-09-2009, 07:16 PM

Andi....... my son is in the Air Force... almost 6 years now. We're hoping he makes a career of it. He just graduated from ALS, I'm a proud mom!

tiggerificandi · 10-10-2009, 03:09 AM

Nancy, Great to hear your son is in. We can give lots of advice. Chris has been in 21 years and both of us love mentoring the young folks. That is what is going to make the Air Force even better when they are the ones running the place in the future.

tiggerificandi · 10-10-2009, 03:10 AM

OK, I will email everyone about the grab bag option. I think that $10 is good for the value, what do you think? Opinions are helpful.

PMR · 10-10-2009, 04:16 AM

$10 seems fair, I could go for $15 too.
Pia

tiggerificandi · 10-10-2009, 07:34 PM

I cut my card pieces out today. Yeah, to have the idea done.

PMR · 10-11-2009, 05:44 AM

I hope to start today, I have thought about it, I just need to find the right stamp
