Not So Secret Pal Deadline

Nevermind about sending me your email. I remembered you had it on another post so I went ahead and sent you my info! Gail

Got it!

Hey -- can I get the list without being on it?? I'd love to occasionally drop something in the mail to each of you -- but can't do it on a regular basis -- my brother eats up my spare change! Besides -- would give me some great ideas for little gifts for goals -- Love ya Joni!

I want you on the list!!! I don't care if you don't send me anything.....I want to send you stuff!!!!

Hey, I'm with Kim! I want you on the list too. I want everyone on the list! That's the reason we're doing this a NOT SO SECRET pal list. It doesn't obligate anyone to anything and gives everyone the opportunity to do random acts of kindness. I don't care if I don't ever get ONE LITTLE THING in the mail. I would like to have everyone's information so _I_ can send something if I want to. And lord knows, I'm not one to have tons of spare change since I'm on disability. Seems like all my spare change goes to medical bills and the IRS, (and a wee bit for cheese dip.) But I do come across little stuff in all these boxes I'm trying to clean out and I can send a note of encouragement to people, an occasional card. Then again, I may never get my act together enough to send anyone anything, but I love having their information. It's not a thing to require lots of money. If anyone sees a wee photo of Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith in the tabloids and cuts it out and mails it to me, that will be a happy day in my household! The Not So Secret Pal List is NOT so that we can all send everyone gifts at every holiday, birthday and anniversary. It's just so we can...when we feel like it...just do a little random act of encouragement. I am in on this, BUT I will tell everyone right now that I have Adult Attention Deficit Disorder, which means that sometimes I am on the ball and sometimes I am not. You may get a birthday card from me one year and the next year you may not. I can't keep up with things very well....and dang! Saying this just reminded me that my friend Lacey's birthday is tomorrow and I have her a card and did I send it? No. Oh well. However, that said, if you want to deprive us of having the opportunity to send you some love on occasion, you do not have to be on the list. This list is whatever you/we all want it to be. But I do wish everyone would send in their information anyway. No strings, no obligations, just fun. After all, I don't think anyone is going to "keep score." This ain't the BB. So...again, you will get the list if you want the list. I do hope you decide to send in YOUR info too though. If nothing else, it will help us to get to know you better! But no stress, no rules, no obligations. This is for FUN! Love you! Joni

Joni -- I'm an open book (if you'd have read my profile while it was up -- you'd know that!) But I'm also a "giver" -- "recieving" has always made me feel uncomfortable (thanks Dad for the "independent" upbringing). That being said -- my favorite gifts to receive are inspirational quotes and educational pathes to my curiousities -- those that make me think, encourage me to be a better person, and challenge my imagination. You guys can send those to [email protected]! If you'll give me an idea of what kind of information you are compiling - I'll respond in kind! Love you guys ~

You've got mail!

Let me in on it!! What do I need to do? How do we play??? I need the info... Love, Linda

I've got your info Linda! I will be sending out the information when I feel like everyone who wants to be a part of it has sent me their info. I haven't decided whether to mail it out or email it. But once the list if complete, I will get it to everyone. If I miss anyone or anyone wants to be a part of it later on, I can always send an addendum. Love, Joni

Hey Joni...did you get my stuff? I can't remember if you ever said or not? Love, Becky
