Row Robin starts Jan. 2016 All info on first post.

[lorra]

Thanks,Luann. I'm supposing that we'll get each participant's snail mail address on January 1st?
Lois, are you still deciding?

[lorra]

Updates have been done. Please check the first post and let me know if I have missed anything. I cleaned up a lot of my chatter so it will be easier to read through.

I didn't make any notes about horizontal and/or vertical. We've all chatted about it, so I figure if it's important to you, you'll say so.

We are at 16 participants and that means our last row would be mailed out April 2017!!! Anyone wanting to work ahead, it's ok to send things out before they're due. We've already discussed the 'if I'm late' issue.

If you want to get started,:
your first person, Jan 2016, will be the name directly under yours on the list
For February 2016, you will have the next name down
Etc etc. anyone that doesn't quite get this concept let me know, I'll mark your email accordingly.

What will our emails be marked with? A 'D' for dunce? :P

Also, I presume, when you get to the bottom of the list you will circle back up to the top.

I'm hoping Lois joins in. If she does, or anyone else, their name will go at the bottom of the list. So, it's best to use pencil if putting names on your 2016/2017 calendar once you reach the bottom of the list and move to the top to continue.

I was hoping I could just use my contacts from the iPad and send out everyone's snail mail addresses. Well, I can do that, but everyone will get 15 emails and I will be sending out 225 emails. If I don't get it figured out soon, I'll get started, as it may be Jan 1st before I'm done! LOL.

Marilyn's info is now on the list.

I'm getting close to the mass emailing! Don't want to, but I gotta get this done, right?

Please don't get mad at me, I gotta try something

So this either means that I send a strip to Cathy (no 5) on my list every other month :huh: or....

my rota looks something like this :blink: :silly: , I count on five names for all the even numbers. Of course if Lois, or anyone else does join in, I will have to re-calculate :P

I was in position 5 on the master list! But I can't get back and forth looking at your rotation schedule,, oh my, I think I'll send each person a specific monthly list so no one gets more confused than I seem to already be!! LOL
Love you guys, and thanks for the patience

[lorra]

I have tried to send out the physical addresses for all participants. There is a problem for some, not for others. Barb is helping with a spreadsheet, and I'm working on it too. We will get things tuned up and going by Jan 1,2016!!!

[twiglet]

You're doing great. I love this :lol: And Rosemary behave!

[twiglet]

Luann, you might be 5 on the master list, but for me I start with the no 2, Geneva, since I am no 1. Think I will scrap this suggestion and go back to starting with the name after mine and proceed in an orderly fashion, it is too too confusing otherwise.

You're doing great. I love this :lol: And Rosemary behave!

:whistle: Well or badly? :kiss: :lol: :side: :silly:

[twiglet]

With this many people 'in the boat' I'm glad that we can vary the size of the strips/. I'm not sure what I'd do with 17 X 6" strips of 36".
Maybe some people, who haven't jumped in yet ( like Lois) would be happy with just a block?

Meanwhile - My newest grandson is on they way! Hopefully he will be here before midnight!

[twiglet]

Fingers crossed for you Terrie.

[twiglet]

A blocks fine by me.

How exciting Terrie, wait anxiously for news of safe arrival xx

[twiglet]

I'm going to test the addresses this upcoming week. Watch for an envelope to arrive with very important information in it!! Like, what my favorite wine is, I really should have typed whine, but I don't know how to cross out words on my iPad. :silly: :whistle:
Hope every one gets the good address list that Barb put together.
Luann
Many thanks to Barb!!

[idaho]

Terrie.....What's this? Are you starting a block exchange, too? One block does not make a "row" that I can see....I know
there are many sets...and I am pretty sure I can use 10 rows on the front and 10 on the back...with room for borders !!
That's 20 people !! What cha worrying about ??
