wow......... ok.. no problem.. good thing i havnt mailed it yet.
thats cool..... helping her out a bit. :)
kudo's to you.. :)

strangest thing happend today.......
ya know.. last week sometime... i was poking around the internet, and looked up...... truck driving for celeberties/concerts etc.....
and it came up with several companies and what the qaulifcations are and such... ok .. just lookng courious....
i get these tarot card reading things coming to my wall on FB ... and just about every reading or every other one.... its gives u like 3 a day i dont know why... but it keeps telling me of change, changes, etc...
well.... i had a load I took to canada friday, while i droped it off, (Panther who i work for) sent me a message to pick up another load which was 20 miles away, up north of Toronto, it was stage stuff for .. Metallica..(it was dragons , lazers, war tanks and fogg stuff..) and I thought??? yeha.. this is awsome.. cuz most the time , cept sometimes i haul car parts. so this was cool... and wierd that I got a load like this , cuz i have not mentioned anything about this story to anyone.. of doing the search for trucking companies/jobs doing this sort of thing.
soo ok i get here..... just east of Harrisburg Pa where im droping the stage stuff at some sort of warehouse storage place they have here..
well here were all these other trucks here with trailers with other major concert stuff.... with a couple companies names on the trucks i seen on line.
well after sitting there waiting for someone to unload my truck and listening to these trucker guys talk there stuff and all ...one of them who seemd in charge of several trucks, walked away then came bk a lil later and asked for info about my truck and owner... and wants to se if he can hire my truck for hauling ahhhhhhhhhh concert stuff.... heh.. says they need some smaller trucks like mine.... now how wierd is that???

If you mail it before the end of the week, I should still get it. I won't actually leave WA until the 12th or 14th. I promised my boss today that I wouldn't start my trip on Friday, the 13th. He said it would be bad karma, and he's more into that than I am, so I'm going to go with it, because I need allllll the help I can get. :blink:

I'll pm you my addy.

If you are not going to get it into the mail before, say, Thursday, then I would definitely send it to Diva's addy. Between all of us, we'll find a way. I love original artwork and look forward to seeing what lovely stuff you've done.

Candace was in OR. I'm in WA. I know, so many initials and none of them are TX, riiight? :cheesy:

At least, not yet!

I think we'll both need a blessing or twelve. We're both set in our ways and sassy. I'll keep an exorcistist on hand, mkay? :eyebat:

Pssssst.....I have SEVEN more working days!!!!!! :thumbsup:

Metallica?

*blink*
*drool*

not to fear
 

Basket is DONE..........now where do I send it??

That's RIGHT! TX is much better! ;) (I'm pretty sure now that half the things I've ever mailed You are in OR somewhere.... :| )

Blessings are good! I bought more religious candles! We don't need to go to the trouble of hiring an exorcist.....I bought more duct tape, too. :eyebat: See what a giver I am?

SEVEN!?!??!?!?!?!?! YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Truly...I cannot wait!)

THANK YOU Rain :praying:

I PM'd you with info.

and by when do you need to know what I am donating?

And thanks Tommi!!!!!!

Tommi - Do you need any extra of the raffle ticket bags decorated? I have some extra supplies ... and I've had lots of fun making them.

Yes, I do believe so. Have not heard from Random, who had from #31--->I think* PixieStars also said she could do some..If morningstar adds one , that's another bag.

So...
Pixie have you started on Extra raffle bags..? Can you let purepices know, and between the two of you, make the bags from #31 to where the list is now, plus...looks like Morning star will be added to the list.

If I missed anything, let me know..It is getting cORNfusing..:eatinghersheybar::chocolate: :chocolate: :chocolate: . I still need to shop for shirts, and boots, or I'm commin' in sleepy jammie shirts..

barb, I'll PM you the mailing address, please make a post in the Raffle Thread with a description of your donation. (Will be used at the raffle and on the bag)

Well,,,I am making lists next weekend( 8/15/) and typing descriptions to accompany each item., so, by next weekend would be good.

Adding to the pen pal basket: Wonder Woman stationary set (16 stationary sheets & envelopes plus stickers), Book Binding Kit (makes 3 books), Panda Riding a Motorcycle (a special sticker), Scratch and Sniff chocolate scented stickers (40), Scatch and Sniff pizza scented stickers (26), and a set of eight femme-themed books of sticky notes.

Chocloate sniffer scratcher stickers >WOW>..I collect Wonder Woman and Superman stuff...I am going to need to bring extra piggy bank money to buy more tickets....

Thank's jen, this is going to be such a fun basket. I'll update the Raffle thread...:chocolate:

We went to a conference in Eugene, OR and they supplied all kinds a stickers to decorate the name tags. But I have never had a sniffy one..Pizza, too..WOWOWOWOW.

Can you bring a sample for hard working Raffelmeister..:mohawk:

Hey Creatives!
