Two for One Round Robin Swap

17 years ago

OK, so I have waaayy too many seeds for my own good. I would like to offer up a way for you to get a new variety to try and enjoy. For every packet of seeds you send you will get two packets in return. So who wants to play? If you do, please email and post here so I can try to keep track. You will need to send your seeds with the variety and your GW name on them to me, along with enough return postage to get the new variety back. I will accept participants through July 15th and will then mail them back to you by July 20th. Come on, you know you want to...LOL Feel free to ask me any questions. Thanks, Ann

    Hey, Ann, are you still aiming for us to get the seeds to you by July 15? If so, I need to get moving, LOL. I have been trying to collect some fresh seeds to send along with my 2008 ones, and that is going slowly. Will do my best to get the envelope packed this weekend.

    Karen

  • 17 years ago

    mine will be going out tomorrow,,,have them all sorted!

  • 17 years ago

    Friends, I still want to go forward with this swap but please understand that I have broken my ankle in 3 places and am not allowed to walk or put any weight on it so things may take a littl longer. Hopefully everyone got my address to mail envelopes. If you don't have it, please send me an email I wll try to respond quickly. Thanks, Ann

  • 17 years ago

    My envelope was mailed this afternoon. Ann, take it slow and easy, there is certainly no hurry. Who is going to plant their seeds in July? Not me, that's for sure. Hope you will be feeling better soon. I hope it wasn't a gardening accident.

    Becky

  • 17 years ago

    Ann,
    Hope you feel better soon so sorry to hear that your ankle is broken. Take care, Amy

  • 17 years ago

    Ann,
    take your time, I'm not in any hurry..hope you feel better soon! HOw long is the cast going to on?

  • 17 years ago

    Hope you are feeling better soon!

    I realized in my rush I forgot to put my GW name on my envies. Do you want me to send some labels for you to stick on them?

    Again, FEEL BETTER SOON! I hope the bones heal quickly!!!!

  • 17 years ago

    OK, I will accept participants through today (Wednesday July 15th). If you're interested please make sure that you post here and then email me and then put those seeds in the mail! The disabled one in misery (that would be me) will get you your new seeds as soon as possible. Any quesions, just ask me please. Thanks, Ann

  • 17 years ago

    Ann,
    My seeds went out today. Take care and hope you are feeling better. Amy

  • 17 years ago

    Mine are out!

  • 17 years ago

    Okay, I've got my seeds-n-weeds all set to go to work with me in the morning. There are definitely advantages to being a mailman!

  • 17 years ago

    Ann, so sorry you are hurt. Not in a big hurry here! My seeds went out yesterday.

  • 17 years ago

    Alright, it's Thursday morning. We'll consider this swap closed to new folks so I can work on this as the seeds come in. Thanks to all wh joined and all the kind thoughts about this middle aged klutz! Cheers, Ann

  • 17 years ago

    mine went out today..

    Cindy

  • 17 years ago

    Ann, I sent my package via priority mail, so it should get to you Saturday, or Monday at the latest. I can't wait to see your posting after you get it...hehehe!!!

  • 17 years ago

    Be afraid Ann...be very very afraid....."L"

  • 17 years ago

    Ann I'm just checking too see how your are feeling today?

  • 17 years ago

    So after today's mail, I have envies from the following: Becky (Ramazz), Laura (Lilangel1181), Amy (Amybabyboy3) and Karen (Karendee). I'll keep my druginduced eyes out for the others. Not happy, friends, can't move around, can't get much done and feeling overwhelmed! Have a great weekend, Ann

  • 17 years ago

    Ann, I'm pretty familiar with that feeling of being overwhelmed, and it's not a good feeling to have. What I did to rid myself of it was to finish all the commitments I had and didn't take on any others for awhile. I even took a leave of absence from work and spent some serious "me" time just wandering the earth for awhile. I know you can't do much wandering with that bum ankle, but how about sinking yourself into a book and doing some mental wandering?
    Doctor's recommendation? Dive into a good book, have a pot or two of your favorite flavored coffee or tea, and let the rest of the world float by on its merry way.
    Do you need anything to help you pass the time by while you heal? If so, let us know.

    Wishing you the best...
    -Dan

  • 17 years ago

    Looks like I have all but two more I need. Yes, Dan's little treasure trove arrived yesterday - cute, Dan, cute! The mint I loved, the rest was funny because I'd always wanted to not have to bend over to pull weeds and thanks to Dan - I could do that! I think I'm still waiting for zztopsoil and Appolossa909 (sp?). Be afraid, be very afraid of what would happy and I could actually get out and collect more seeds! Cheers to all, Ann

  • 17 years ago

    Hi Ann,

    I'm sorry to hear that you hurt yourself!

    I'm sure you don't remember but you sent me some pink sensation monkshood seeds a while back for postage. I have just collected seeds from my dianthus spooky plants! I see that they are on your wants list, did you get them yet? If not, please send me your addy and I'll send you out what I have. I only got about 10 seeds off of two plants but it's a start. Let me know.

    Lisa

  • 17 years ago

    Now the only package I'm waiting for is from zztopsoil which should arrive shortly. Then I can start getting these seeds out of my house. Thanks for all your support!

  • 17 years ago

    Hi Ann! Just dropped by to see how you were doing. How did your appointment go today? Hopefully it was good news!
    Take care of yourself!
    -Dan

  • 17 years ago

    Hi Ann,

    Just checking too see how things are going with you.
    Please post and give us a update on your recovery.

    Thanks
    cindy

  • 17 years ago

    okay Ann..spill it!

  • 17 years ago

    Ann, I hope you are doing better!!

    Karen

  • 17 years ago

    OK, thye good news is that zztopsoil's seeds arrived today and now I get the pleasure of making up packets for each of you. At least that will keep my mind off of my bum ankle which could keep me out of commission for at least 6 - 8 weeks and then to physical therapy. Thanks for all your prayers and your kind words. Keep 'em coming, I am bored out of my mind! Thanks
    Ann

  • 17 years ago

    Methinks Ann is buried under all those seed packets, with no Saint Bernards coming to her rescue.
    Hope all is well with you Ann! Cheers!
    -Dan

  • 17 years ago

    Definitely no St. Bernards coming to my rescue but do Miniature Schnauzers and Boykin Spaniels count??? I think I finished. To all who joined in, I did my best is a slightly drug-induced state to give everyone a good mix. I hope all if OK, if not please email me privately and I will try to help. Thanks for all the Get Well Cheer. I definitely need it!

  • 17 years ago

    LOL, Ann, those drug-induced states can be so much fun to travel in! Enjoy them while you can, just don't mess up your ankle again, okay? It's much better to not be injured or sick when you're enjoying the drugs. It makes the ride go a whole lot smoother.

    Or so I've heard.

    And yes, the Miniature Schnauzers and Boykin Spaniels count. They just have to carry smaller barrels of alcohol, that's all.

  • 17 years ago

    I received my seeds in the mail today. Thanks for a great assortment. Thanks for being a great hostess. I hope that ankle heals really fast.

    what a nice surprise in my mailbox today! I went through the seeds over my tea..a great selection and some I have never planted before. Great job Ann! Stay off that ankle!
    Linda

  • 17 years ago

    Ann, Thank you for all the nice seeds. Hope you are doing alot better. I know that was a lot of work when your not feeling well. Take care of yourself and Thank you again! Amy

  • 17 years ago

    Ann, I got mine, too! Thanks so much for working while you were in pain. It is a great selection, but in spite of zz's request, none of mine are not going to be planted until wintersowing time rolls around. I would fear for their survival if I planted them in this heat.

    Becky

  • 17 years ago

    Thank you all for the amazing assortment, and especially Ann for all that work! I hope your ankle feels better!
    ~Laura

  • 17 years ago

    Ann, I got my box today, and all I can say is WOW & THANK YOU!!! Veggies, flowers, vines, trees, hostas, herbs, shrubs, and I'm still looking through it all to figure out what I received. I'm going to do you a favor and not tell Thompson & Morgan about all these seeds, they'd accuse you of stealing a customer! I don't know if I'm going to need to order seeds for next year now, since you sent all of these!

    WOW.

  • 17 years ago

    I got mine Ann!! You did a great job!!! Love them. Thanks very much.

    Stacy

  • 17 years ago

    Anne what a wonderful surprise in my mailbox today! You did a great job Ann! Get well soon!
    cindy

  • 17 years ago

    Thank you for this swap! I got a nice selection of seeds!!!
    Karen

  • 17 years ago

    "Thanks Ann!"

    I too Have Received a Wonderful Selection of Seed Packets in the Mail.
    "Thank You So Very Much!"
    and..."What a Turn Around in Getting the Seeds Back to Everyone"...Greatly Appreciated.
    I've Already Planted Some of these Varieties.

    ZZ.

  • 17 years ago

    I received my seeds, thanks for such a great selection. Super quick turn around too!
