CLOSED: Cute Critters Swap:) #2
The other thread was slow as all get out, so I moved us:)
SO Mom wants to add dragons to the list....I told her we'd see-they aren't real, they aren't usually cute (unless they are a pocket dragon of course).....
Nope hit it once but things are a little weird right now. Well so what that they aren't real? They are cute. Be sweet Tinky.
OOOHHHHH Dragons are great!!!! Welcome Janice!!
Laura, if you get here post the baby dragon...
See! I told you dragons can be cute. I have purple ones and pink ones and ones with tiny wings and ones that have large snake-like bodies. As you can see I collect...
I'm glad someone else replied to that "old" crack! Since I have a father that was 100 last January, playing bridge 8 x's a wk and in three chorus's and doing just fine on his own, thank you! I feel like I am still a youngster. I wish the knees thought the same thing.
LOL-OK-I will add CUTE dragons and pf course put them next to your name for preference:) Wait til you see the pocket dragons I have-they are adorable!!!
OH Ladydragon, know about the knees--have a mind of their own!! That is wonderful about your Dad. My Mom is closing in on 90 and doing okay. Had a fall recently that has slowed her up but she is making great progress.
Are you joining us on this swap?
Yup-she is #26:)
Thanks Tink!! Us old people need all the help we can get from you youngins" LOL
Only on paper my dear, only on paper.
Okay...got my critter all boxed up and ready....hurry up and send me a name before I unpack it and keep it myself! :oD it is just way too cute!
oh and real name is that loooonnnngggg name....Annmarie, so I just go by AnjL cause I'm lazy :oD tee hee!
Silly goosey...she goes by AnjL cause she is one ;o)
Loved the dragon. Thanks for sending the pics. Tomorrow I will show you my garden dragon. He is one of my favorites. He may keep most of the bad bugs out but he doesn't do so good a job on the weeds. Those I have to take care of myself!
The Halloween swap sounds like fun and I let Joey know I want on the list. The Mystery 7 sounds like fun but may be beyond my feeble brain to figure out. See, you got me hooked!
Welcome to the ever addicting world of swaps!!!!
Been on DG for all of about 2 hours, and already signed up for 2, maybe 3!!! Way to go.
Marion, how are you doing tonight. Hope you can get someone to clear your driveway for you real soon.
Linda Kay
I am so excited. This sounds like its going to be so much fun. I like swans, but I also like flamingos and egrets, but swans are my favorite.
I got my sister hooked on Pocket Dragons about 9 years ago. I get her 3 to 5 of them every Christmas. I added a few pics of them and a link to see the rest. They are just too cute!
Linda Kay we have that "talent" of capturing newbies with our charms! LOL for sure.
Welcome, welcome Ladydragon5 you wont' regret this---well maybe you will after you get to know some of us better. We try to be good but sometimes it just happens.
I don't think a sign up has been started for the Halloween swap yet. If so I have missed it but what would be new?
LK, nope my daughter, son and I will clean it. I got him a chainsaw last year for Christmas and he has already called saying he is going to get to use it! Actually sounded excited. Long be it for me to stop him.
We are having another band of wind and rain coming through again and more to come so they say.
Will chat tomorrow provided we still have power.
Not a recent subject but are cats on the list.....The cat with binoculars and a bird sitting on top of them is one of Laura's all time favorites, I am surprised she didn't mention it.
kitties AND puppies!! :o)
they better be on the list. ROFLMBO
=^..^=
I order all my Pocket Dragons from this web site:
http://www.astralcastle.com/
Every four years I order enough Pocket Dragons for my sister for the next five Christmas'. I give her 3 to 5 each Christmas and one for her Birthday.

Love the Dragons!!! I also loved the Paper Tiger, I think I recognize that tail!!
Can we add griffins? If we ever get the money DH and I are changing our name to Griffin, his mothers maiden name. It's already what I think of myself, just can't legally use the name.
OK-so I am adding cute gargoyles, kitties, puppies and cute griffins!!LOL
Mom-I am not sure-maybe you posted on the welcome thread, but you have to wait for a swap to open and sign up on a thread like this one...
Anjl& Cat-we have gotten some of the dragons and we get them from Ebay..
Laura-I don't have any clue what the C creature is???
That's a perfect Kodak Moment, Cindy!
OMG-that is preciuos!!
Awwww thats beautiful!!
Those pictures are beautiful. That is amazing
Framed, those pictures would make a beautiful and unique wall grouping for a den or office.
Good morning ladies!! I have been waiting for you all to get up:)
Mornin, I have been up, I have been lazy the past few days and had a million threads to catch up on. Got the chicken out and watched them for a little while, going to work out in the coop today again.
watch out for the poo Tia:) I was wonderin where you've been:)
Marion, How did you fare the night? I worried about you all night! Where are you on the map? Hope it didn't get to rough for you!
