July Secret Pals - UPDATE

Post by CindyB » Tue Jul 01, 2008 11:56 am

I have to organize the matches, and will be posting July secret pals soon... look for an update when the PM's are sent out!

UPDATE - wow - time flies! We've had more thunderstorms, so my computer has been off.... seems like it's been off more than on lately... ok, the scoop is that I've been fighting a bad shoulder for a while (doc says its my bursa, and they really want to remove it, but I'm putting that off as long as possible) and have been getting cortisone shots in my shoulder for a couple of years.... I've put off the last cortisone shot because it was less than 6 months since the last one. If I get them too close together, the doc won't do the shots, but insist on surgery.

So - Keith is taking me to the ED today to see if we can get a shot, because they made my appointment for August 21st.... seeing how I can't even comfortably lift a cup of coffee, I can't go that far...

So - Michelle06H has offered to send out the secret pals this month. I had them all matched, but just needed to get the PM's out. I'm hoping she'll get them out quicker than me.... :);

Dear Cindy, If you haven't posted my name to anyone yet I think I will pull out of the swaps . Ive enjoyed the forum so much up to now but feel one person is now running the show, and personally don't like how she has treated other members. Most of you girls are really great too many to mention so thankyou for everything,aussiewendy

Me either, please remove me for a while. After the kids go back to school, I may sign back up. Thankyou Cindy for all of your hard work. You've held this group together and made it really fun. Love, Amie :o)

I hope that the lemons in the secret pal, don't succeed in ruining it for all of us. I have met some wonderful gals by being chosen as their secret pal, and those being mine. I just got back from meeting a gal who became my friend about 2 years ago through a quilting forum; and she is a treasure. Our meeting was one that I shall cherish forever and we are already looking forward to seeing each other again. I am so grateful that a place like this was able to bring us together.

I'm still in. I'm puzzled by so many members having bad experiences b/c of 1 person. Don't know what that situation is and don't need to know. Sorry for those it effects, though.

I would be happy to have a July SP.

:)
Thanks again for your work Cindy,
Dawne
