Dodge--have you read the questionaire?? the questions are really just general ones so the recipient of your name will have an idea of you and what you like.--and onnce you go out & start looking it is really not that hard to buy gifts for your "person". I had a great time last year
really like Sheri said--it is fun-- :wink:

Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain!! .....
Here's my problem........ I dont know what I want????????
I dont know what you want?????????
You don't have to know what you want Barb! I don't usually give too many ideas and people seem to always send me such wonderful things....some are things that I really have always wanted but never thought to mention and some are things that I absolutely love but never really thought of before!! It is fun! You should join Barb! You would love it!!!
I had Diane's name last year. I tried to get stuff off her list but I couldn't find everything so I sent other stuff. I didn't get everything off my list either but I liked what I got and the rain gauge saved my flowers.
Oh yeah, you don't HAVE to send the stuff on the persons list...it's just to be helpful to others. I already have a few things I bought just for the swap and I don't have any clue who I have.... It's fun, and not to be taken with disappointment if you don't get the things on your list. Although I try to get something from the list.
As far as the phone number thing goes Barb the only person you would even have to give it to is Jiffy....maybe she even already has it? It's not something that you have to give to everyone.
James you should join in, no guarantee that you'll get the mouse you want but it's fun to play.

I guess i will wait til the last minute to post whether I want in the swap or not...because I never know from one day to the next if I will be (a)in the hospital or (b)in an airplane. (When you are in a coma you can do both of those at the same time! The entire time I was in a coma I thought I was in an airplane!)
Didn't Bill tell you? You were in an airplane NOT in a coma.
I believe I get the credit for officially hijacking this topic!
and i believe you get the coveted jiffy points, 500 of them, for successfully hijacking the post without bill catching you before you did it completely!
Well I signed up. And I filled out the form. ITs a bit different than when I did Secret Santa on a horse board, What we did was create an Alias, So we could post to the person we got and ask questions and find out more stuff about them but they did not know who they had. This will be fun too. I already have ideas. I must have missed it but it doesnt say anywhere what the amout to spend is?

I thought Dodge and I started the derailing :x...
I hope I get someone who likes "stuff"... I'm not sure how good i'd be when it comes down to buying gardening stuff... you know, being a techie and all ;) lol

Oh Boy, I actually picked up a few neat things today at my favorite nursery garden shop. I know I know have not even gotten my person, but I figure If I like it someone else might, CAn always keep it for myself. I got a great idea how I am going to do my goodie box! Sooooooo Excited!
I get that excited too. And I always end up buying too much. Or buying stuff for my person and then I have to buy one for me too cause I like it so much.
I'm glad that you are taking part in this. I think you'll really enjoy it.
Loz, I'm sorry but I would like for you to remove my name from the list, and probably my post saying 'me too', because of financial reason. It's just going to be too tight for me right now. Thank you, and sorry!

Like I said Ditchy, you don't HAVE to give stuff off the lists. If there is stuff you get excited about and would like a friend to have, you can give that. I've gotten some true surprises from friends on this forum and it's all been great. Sometimes we don't think of things ourselves that we would really love. I have to mention my rain gauge here - I didn't request it but everyone on here knows how I've enjoyed it.
ah yes the enchanted rain guage, i remember that! good thing i didn't keep that for myself, we would have had to build an ark by now, the way it rains around here
Ditchy, I love your graphic at the bottom of your posts!!
