SWAPKINS REMINDER!!

Alright everyone... Swapkins is only a few days away.. so here's another reminder!!

WHEN: Saturday Oct 10 at 2pm (just enough time for the 5Kers to cool down and come on over!)

WHERE: Maple Grove (my apartment) - PM me or e-mail me at [email protected] for directions.

WHAT: Bring clothes, take clothes... SWAP!! The rest goes to the needy.

WHY: Because we deserve it!

I went through my closet last night and here's a portion of what I am donating:




Don't forget to bring something WLS-friendly for the pot luck if you can and whoever can pitch in an up-to-$5 donation for the party room.. it would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like lots of people from all corners of town are coming so it's an event you don't want to miss!!! If you are an at-goal post-op... please consider coming too! We may have some small sizes and if all else fails, you will be there to inspire and chat with others!

I wish I could come but I have plans that have been in place forever for this weekend. I would love to see what I could find, I am so sick of my cloths! Next time!

I am out of town this weekend but if there is anyone coming from my neck of the woods(Burnsville/ Lakeville), I have a few more boxes of stuff I can hand off to the swap. Just message me and I can drop them off to you to bring. Thanks!

Kim,

I'm planning on going.  Text me or email me at work and we can figure out when you can drop stuff off at my place.  I'm home tonight and Thursday night (I think). TTYL!

I call dibs on Kim's stuff!
haha, but seriously - that girl has some nice threads!!!

Elena - any feel for what kinds of things people are bringing for the potluck at this point?  I'd like to avoid duplicating anything...

I was wondering the same things as Darla

I think my problem is WLS friendly food depends on when you had the surgery. Since I'm so new, I'll bring my own food, but Michael is coming (he's pre-op) and thinking of making guac and getting baked chips - would that be good or not?

Elena - great reminder...hmmm...what is that purple silky number, though? It caught my eye right away. LOL

I've got plenty 'o winter coats I'm bringing, so I hope there are some 2X'ers out there that are coming!

Also, some nice work duds from the likes of Dress Barn and Lane Bryant that are in near new condition, but the consignment shops were too picky to take. Hoping someone comes and takes them home so I don't feel guilty about donating them!

Looking forward to the fun! Swapkins ROCKS!!

I'm going to try to come. I don't  have much to donate this time though! I have been borrowing clothes from friends to make it through lately. Once they are too big, I give them back. My closet is pretty empty of things I actually own!  * sad *
 I noticed the purple thing in Elena's pile also ! Hmm
