    My mailman must not care about shaved legs, because the robin landed here anyway!

    I will get her back out as soon as I can!

    Okay all rr # 2 is off course so Melanie will send it to marge c who will send it to rainbow, who also got skipped, probably didn't have legs ready. sorry girls, I warned you.
    melanie please send to marge. thankyou

  • 21 years ago

    Ahhh... I like the bear much better than the mean old doggie!

    ps I'm not shaving until you post the new lists up.

  • 21 years ago

    Look out Marge C, the Robin is flying her way to your house. Do what ya gotta do to get the mailman to stop because this robin is plenty fat and was so much fun to go through! Hope you enjoy the tea, bath salts and of course the seeds!

    Thanks everyone for such a fun time!

    The robin landed on my front step while I was at basketball games this morning! Wow she is so full! I'm just starting to go through it. There is so much to choose from! I will be out of town for my son's swim meet Monday, but I will get her flying again first thing Tuesday. I will post as soon as I do.

  • 21 years ago

    The #2 robin landed at my place this morning. Hope she can fly out of here tomorrow.

  • 21 years ago

    Robin #1 flew back out yesterday towards Columbia, SC.
    The confirmation # is 0304 1070 0000 6552 9248


    Thanks so much for a great robin!

    Marge please send yours to rainbow lake she was accidentally missed. thankyou carol. muddy mom you are next on #1, get those feet ready and put on the spandex

  • 21 years ago

    Hi, I posted this morning. I must have got it in the wrong place. Don't see it. I sent the robin free this morning. She went to Karen in Ok. Hope that is the right one. The confirmation # is #0303 3430 0001 1129 2914. If my count is correct there was 218 packs of seeds. I kept 22 packs and put in 31. Thanks Melanie for the goodies. I was real pleased with all of it. Carol, Owe you Thanks for a great RR.

  • 21 years ago

    If karen is rainbow lake, then it went to the right place.
    We need yall to vote would you like the robins to go from bottom to top or top to bottom on neww route #1 will go to group #2 and visa versa, please vote thankyou carol

  • 21 years ago

    Sounds like you are sending it to the right place to me. I will be anxiously awaiting it. I have a mail lady also so I don't think the shaved legs will work but maybe if I put out a couple of chocolate brownies in the mailbox it will do the trick.

    By the way, how do you guys add the cute little pictures on your messages?

    Karen (RainbowLake)

  • 21 years ago

    I think that we'd have to go bottom to top. If we keep it in the same order then the people we are mailing it to will end up getting a lot of the same seeds we put in last time for trades.

    Or, you could mix up the two groups. Like, take all the odd numbered people from group 1 and switch them with all the odd numbered people in group 2.

  • 21 years ago

    Ok more feedback please, majority rules for robin order.
    thankyou carol

  • 21 years ago

    Robin #1 has arrived here. It's almost like a jack-in-the-box, the way it just wants to pop open because it's so full. I like that alpha sorting in there. Makes it all so neat!

  • 21 years ago

    I see the spandex worked. only two people left then home and off to round two, need more feedback on the order wanted.

  • 21 years ago

    bump,bump

  • 21 years ago

    I'm game for anything on round 2. I do like the idea of mixing up the groups. What about the relaxing theme? Will this stay the same or do we come up with a new one? Now that we are all relaxed and rested do we need a jolt of coffee so we can get going and get our seeds planted?

    I'm up for anything, this has been a great group to play with!

    Melanie

  • 21 years ago

    Robin #2 has landed here and it is a very heavy bird. I am going to have to pull out my plant encyclopedia and look up some of the seeds to see what they are. What a nice selection.
    Also MargeC sent the cutest little foot lotion set. It is bottled in little plastic feet. I just love it. Also a whole bag of different types of teas.
    I am going to go start tracking down these seed names. I promise I will get the robin back flying on monday. I will post confirmation number when I do.

    Thanks Karen (RainbowLake)

  • 21 years ago

    just got some new string for the weed-whacker so i can get the legs ready for the mailman (LOL), i'm getting close...looking forward to receiving this one.

  • 21 years ago

    The jolt needed for spring planting sounds good to me, Karen Your robin goes to zz next then home. she has done a little erratic flying, glad you are all enjoying
    have fun carol

  • 21 years ago

    My vote is go in the same order--top to bottom. Mellen

  • 21 years ago

    Okay, the robin is in the mail. Confirmation number is

    1. I took out the little foot package (it is so cute) and put in some other foot stuff for the next person. I left in the tea because I am not much of a tea drinker. I took out about 20 packages and put in about the same ammount. I am new to seed collecting this year and don't have a big surplus but next year I am hoping to be better prepared. Veeja, I didn't notice that the bags were alphabitized until I started putting my seeds in the package and then I couldn't find a B bag. I have looked all around in case I dropped it somewhere accidentally but so far no luck. I will keep looking and if I find one anywhere I will mail it directly to you. In the meantime, I started a new B baggie. I just wanted to say that I was very impressed with the organization, clear down to mailing labels. It made it all so easy. Thanks

    Karen

    Package is on the way to zztopsoil

  • 21 years ago

    Sorry, I forgot to say this was robin #2 on way to zztopsoil

  • 21 years ago

    Ok, heads up legs out zz. Then home and not enough feedback to decide order. it will be a coffee or any jolt theme. I think only about 6 people are signed up for round 2. so signup if you want to be in

  • 21 years ago

    Hi Carol--I agree with Mellen--top to bottom--since we won't have the same box-shouldn't have the same seeds--
    Coffee's sound great--but nothing wrong with soaking our feet or bodies after a long day sowing seeds either!
    Still like the relaxing theme--Come on everyone--sign up and we will send 'em around one more time--
    Carol-maybe you could send a mailing to everyone--some may not be checking here if they have already received and sent the robin--and need a reminder for round two--just a thought!
    Wow-- hard to believe February is over!! Spring is here!!
    Jeanette

  • 21 years ago

    Ha! Does a majority of 2 rule? H. Mellen

  • 21 years ago

    I want in round number 2 please. And I think going in reverse order would be great. (that would make me #5) Woo-hoo!!!!! Here birdie, birdie, birdie...

  • 21 years ago

    reverse order, opposite box...hmmm, sounds enticing, especially since it would make me #2. i'm game.

    thanks carol

  • 21 years ago

    Hi, Just wanted to be sure I was included in the second flight. I vote for starting with going from bottom to top. That way we are getting seeds from different people. So any seeds I put in can be picked up by someone who wouldn't have had the chance the first time. :o)

  • 21 years ago

    It looks like bottom to top wins, so when I get box #1 it will go to zz box 2 will go to Luna moon, if she wants to be in round 2, I will post a list in a couple of days.

  • 21 years ago

    Woo hoo, that make me first this time! LOL

    Actually, I don't have a preference to what order the second robin goes in. There are benefits to it going either way...

  • 21 years ago

    Okay, now I KNOW that I'm too tired. I just spent half an hour looking for this thread & it was right there near the top. Robin #1 left here today on her way to the next person. Can anyone explain to me why, when I sign up for different robins at different times, they all decide to land here at about the same time? LOL That isn't very relaxing! It's thrilling, but not relaxing. That tea was needed! Thanks!

    Carol, I loved the way you had everything divided alph style. It was SO much easier going through one smaller pack at a time.

    Next person on the list (Luna?) - Your "relaxing" part of the package is a little different. There's tea in there, which should be relaxing. I included a "foot soak" of a different sort. When I saw it in the store a few weeks ago, it tickled my funny bone and reminded me of this robin. So, I just had to pick some up and toss it in there. Hope you get a "kick" out of it, too.

    Thanks, Carol. I enjoyed this. Now, I need to go off and relax a bit & maybe catch up on some of the sleep I've been lacking.

  • 21 years ago

    I think way up there somewhere I posted I wanted to be in but I'm either blind from reading or I don't see me so here I go again I want to be in second time around and I see that you have already decided order so no input on that.

    Cassie

  • 21 years ago

    darn, i thought i was next after mud mom....oh well, patience is a virtue. i think i am going to have the same problem as mud mom, everything is going to land at once. just hope it gets here before i am away, otherwise, it's going to sit for just a bit before it makes it way either to the next - or back to carol.

  • 21 years ago

    Earthly, maybe it IS you that it's headed for. LOL I remember the state it was going to is PA. I really was wiped out, exhausted, and just trying to make sure those birds got OUT of here. Hope you get a kick out of it.

  • 21 years ago

    Zz or earthly any word ?

  • 21 years ago

    hello everyone...the robin landed - sorry for the delay, but i had to go out of town unexpectedly for a few days.

    i will go through it later today or tomorrow and have it out first thing monday morning and will post confirmation number. good thing it's almost home, the box has seen better days :)

  • 21 years ago

    Wow one more stop and number 1 will be home also. try to get new flight path posted by wednesday.

  • 21 years ago

  • 21 years ago

    wow, this box was really organized quite nicely, i might add. it made me evaluate my seed storage system, so now i've copied carol's method and alphabetized my own stash.

    mudmom, how cute. there was this plastic foot filled with bath gel. pretty neat. unfortunately, my son saw it, liked the novelty of it and claimed it as his own! i have to get this boy involved in some kind of swap because he's always snatching my stuff.

    i took out the 4 or 5 loose tea bags and added some of my own, together with some coffee and hot chocolate and several foot soaks. hopefully the next in line enjoys them.

    the box is all taped up and i covered it in brown paper as it's a sad looking box and it's on it's way to luna (janell).

    i'll post the confirmation number tomorrow after i return from the post office. want to make sure i get there at the right time as i have 8 packages going out at once.

    thanks for the chance to participate in this one. and carol, again thanks for the kick in the butt to get myself organized.

    have a nice sunday everyone.

  • 21 years ago

    Glad you enjoyed the robin, keep legs ready for round #2.

  • 21 years ago

    Since I'm last on this robin and first on round 2 I think I might be able to get away with only shaving once..... Woo Hoo!
