Garden Whimsy Exchange Discussion and Questions

okay I am confused now, I thought this was the question thread and the sign up was on the other thread? did I do it right???

Connie

You can use this thread to let the person know when the whimsy was sent out.

Yes, Connie you did it right. You add your name to the other thread and then come back here to talk, post pics and generaly have a good time getting to know everyone. All those posts at the top were just to see who all was interested in doing an exchange.

okay thanks PG, thought I was losing it there for a minute rofl.

Connie/Pepsidrinker: You are correct ... this thread is just for discussion and questions. The thread for sign up is here:


http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/700583/


p.s. I'm a pepsi drinker too ... am addicted to Diet Pepsi Vanilla!

Yep Connie you did it right.LOL we also come back to this thread to let the person we are sending to know its on the way and to share what we have received and to thank our senders and to just shoot the breeze : ). OK Now for your questions...To save some posting space here.. and because I am so bad at explaining things LOL please see posts above from Plantladylin.She explains everything perfectly : ))OK so You send to the first person to sign up under your post on the exchange thread.If no one else signs up before April 1st (yeah right hee hee) then you would be the last person and then you would send to me.Oh and you can sign up as many times as you like..there is no limit..the only rule is that we allow 3 or 4 other people to sign up below us before we sign ourselves up again.I hope this makes sense? Its nice to dmail the person who signs up below you as soon as possible to get their address and let them know when you will be sending your Whimsy to them.You can send your Whimsy immediately or whever it is convenient for you and the person you are sending too.All packages should be received by April 7th.Have Fun !! : )
Nancy

Thanks Lin..."AGAIN" for your help and the link.What would I do without you???I don't even want to think about that! LOL

You are quite welcome .... I like being helpful!





edited to say: I am real curious about how many "whimsy's" will have been exchanged when this is over? I have signed up twice and I KNOW I will be signing my name a few more times .... so much fun!

Gosh,, I am new to this, and I am so ready for some lighthearted fun! Older mommy here of a 6y.o and a 2.5 year old. I need something in the mail for me,,, silly, cute,, worthless treasure,, whatever!!!!! I don't care!!! I will be happy with whatever has my name on it that is not a bill! LOL I went out today and bought my first houseplant I have had in years. We moved here not long ago, and it was a very hard move. The gardens are a mess. I was used to growing perrennials, for a business and never had time for houseplants.. So..I am renewing my life just by joining in here!! And I am SO grateful!!! THANK YOU ALL!!!! So glad I found this forum!
flowerlou. Mary.

Yipee!! LOL. I can't wait to see what I get!! I will get mine out as soon as I can. Need to stick a big post it on the comp screen so I will hop on it. LOL. I will let everyone know when I send them out.

Welcome to Dave's Garden Flowerlou! Sounds like you've got your hands full with a 6 year old and a 2.5 year old!

We are so glad you are here! This "Garden" is so much fun and I know you will make a lot of good friends. There's a wealth of information from so many generous, kind and knowledgeable people! Have fun, and enjoy! Always remember .... It's Good to treat yourself once in awhile! You deserve it! As women, we tend to put ourselves last in most cases .... I feel it's VERY important to try and remember to do something nice for ourselves once in awhile, even if it's just buying ourselves a house plant!

Again, Welcome ....

Lin

Hi pepper, by your statement

I am signing up more than once so I meant those who are recieving my gifts. LOL. But I can see why you thought I meant everyone.
