I have checked in, but if Charlene can't get back in to RMG, one of us should probably keep a running list of who has PM'd her?

I had a thought: I'm a newbie, so I'm just thinking how I would set up this site. There is a specific "Get Togethers" forum for swaps and other, well, get togethers! I was thinking that that forum might be set up with different restrictions, and the planners wouldn't get shut out in a similar situation? Maybe next time we should post the thread there, with a link to RMG or something... Heck, I dunno--tell me to shut up and butt out! I'm always thinking like an end-user, and not a programmer, so my thought process is probably totally foreign to the peeps that set up GW!

Anyway, I am SO excited for next weekend, and am going to see if I can figure out how to post pictures of those sweet williams I had offered up... They WILL be in full bloom by next Saturday! Huge thanks in advance to Charlene & Skybird for all the efforts in putting this thing together!

Shut up and butt out! Hehehehehehehe! (Couldnt resist!!!)

Seriously, I havent had time to post this, but now it looks like Charlene probably wasnt locked out, but that GW is having a problem with people who use Macs and a specific browser. I leave again tomorrow, so I dont have time to do it now, but when I get backat midnite on Saturday (actually, after I sleep for most of Sunday!), Im gonna email her and see if shes back in. I was in contact with somebody from GW and she was gonna email that person and................

I dont know whats happened since then! Now that I know she wasnt "locked out," Ill PM the few remaining people if necessary, but Im still hoping more people see this and PM her or me with their "real" addresses. That would sure make it easier. Since we dont know for sure if shes getting PMs from GW, if you PM me your address, Ill forward it to her so she can send you the location informationor easier yet, Ill forward the location email directly to you.

Gotta go for now. Have to finish dinnerwhich is getting cold as I type thisand go to bed!

BTW, I did try posting on the get togethers forum the year before we had the first swap. Nobody on RMG saw it! It works ok hereif we can get the connection to Charlenes computer hooked back up!

Fingers crossed for good weather,
Skybird

I don't have the info, do want to come, and PMd Skybird today. rrosechild AT comcast.net Thanks.

Autodidact, if you see this, I tried to reply to your email a couple houres ago, and it came back from Mailer Daemon saying the "account wasn't available" and some other stuff. I'll try again to send it later tonite, and if it doesn't work, I'll come back here and post again.

We'll get it to you one way or another,
Skybird

I tried again and got it back again, Auto, Do you have some sort of blocking on your email account? Is there any other email address I could send it to that you could PM me?

Skybird

OK, I got an email from Charlene saying she got the addresses for Dryad and Mayberry and has sent them the info email.

I just PMd
Laura 42
Phloxy Mary
TequilaGirl

That should be the last three that we dont have email addresses for yet. When I get their addresses Ill send them Charlenes info email.

IF THERES ANYONE BESIDES THE 3 LISTED ABOVE WHO HAVENT GOTTEN THE EMAIL WITH CHARLENES ADDRESS, PM ME NOW!

And, AutoDidact, I still need a response from you re: my two messages above.

Skybird

I just linked to Charlene's page and sent a message, I'm pretty sure I can make it! I'll keep my eyes on my Yahoo account for a response...
Thanks!
Amester

So glad you'll be able to come, Amy! Have you looked over the list on the picture thread to see if there's anything you want earmarked?

Skybird

Thank you Skybird!!!!!!

I talked to admin and they instructed me on a few more things I could do and it worked!!!!!

I'm sorry for any inconvenience my non-computer-techy may have caused!

Can't wait til Saturday. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Charlene

Welcome back to OUR WORLD, Charlene! Glad you finally got back in!

AUTODIDACT Both Charlene and I have tried to email you, and the comcast address isnt working for either of us. Please PM one of us with a different address to try or enable PMing on GW so se can contact you that waybut I suspect Charlene would rather send her address directly to an email address, rather than running it thru the GW system.

LAURA 42 AND PHLOXY MARY, we still need email addresses for you so we can send you the address and directions. Please PM Charlene or reply to the email I sent you via GW.

Charlene, if youre able to contact any of the last 3 above, let me know, and if I do, Ill let you know.

The weather reports now are for mid 60's to 70, depending on whos doing the forecasting, but still only a slight chance for rain, so still sounding pretty good!

See you all Saturday,
Skybird

Eeeep, sorry I've been away from the forum the past week. Sending my info now....

I'm sorry everyone! Life got hold of me and it's just starting to release its grip! I didn't make it to the Swap and I haven't been on the forum for weeks! But I'm here now. I apologize for being a flake on the Swap!
