Please continue to check the first post I made on the thread.  I'm always editing it to show changes. 

I have added a Thanksgiving Swap to the list.  There's just something about giving Thanks that makes it appropriate.  

Kerri and Amy,  are there any slots that sounds good to you?  

 Kerri -  I got you down for Valentine's Day.  Thank you.

 AmyG you are now the Hostess for Christmas 2010. 

I guess I better start working on the calendar of swaps for 2011. 

Just kidding,  I think I'll wait a bit. 

Amy and Deni.....

I'm sorry if I jumped over anyone........Amy.....if you want the Springtime one......I'll swap with you and do the Valentines Day one.    I hadn't seen anyone requesting the Spring one and thought.....why not try hosting.    Truly if I was out of line....I will take the Valentines Day one.     (Been off the computer....due to work schedules.....so I didn't see this earlier).   Just let me know  

Love peace and blessings.......Anne Marie

 No Anne MArie, you were not out of line. On the Card Swap (#8) I had mentioned it and in a few other  posts along teh way, but I didn't want to jump the gun.  It's all set that I am doing Christmas 2010.  lol You can help me remember.

I think its great that you are stepping up to volunteer as hostess. it can be a unique experience. Lots of fun and a great way to get , and send, mail. Those connections are important.

 Have fun, will look forward to seeing the cards

 HUGS Amy

 I love that everyone is tripping over themselves to volunteer!! I kept thinking I really should hostess one but you've all successfully taken the pressure off....can I sign up for one in 2025 maybe? *grin*

 LOVE you all!! I gotta go figure out which ones to sign up for now....

Hi,

I posted this message in the current card swap due August 1 and I wanted to be sure everyone sees this for future swaps.

Alert!  - Good deal for card swappers.

 Oriental Trading Company - 4 cents shipping on $40 order until 6/22/09.  Enter key code: STAR

$40 too much for you (and me) - go in with a friend to get the deal

Save 4 cents and spend $9 more. lol  They also have free shipping over $49

 

 

 

Okay.  I am officially confused again.  Right now is it just the hostesses that are signing up for the 2010 card swap dates?

Thanks,
Vicki

Yes Vicki -  just the Hostesses.   In fact,  I think I'll go ahead and sign up to be the hostess for the 4th of July swap.    Wow, almost a year from now...... a little less........

 Bumping this up with a couple of changes.   We still have swaps in 2010 that need a hostess or a host.  We have plenty of time on most of them  if you want to wait to sign up to be the hostess or host. 

I'd like to host one, maybe Halloween/Fall (#19).  Please sign me up for this one, if no one else has claimed it.  Thanks!!

 

Katrina

I'm bringing this up top for interested folks. We are working on card swap #13 which is at it's tail end, so the Valentine's Day swap is next. It looks like we do have a hostess for it - Kerri. So I'll connect with her to see if she still wants to do it. I'll take my name off the July 4th swap to allow others to hostess if they like. Hope this helps.

I think there have been some changes since the very first post was last edited. It looks like Katrina claimed Halloween, and I can't figure out the spring/easter/armed forces day swaps at all, but it seems as though there are people who want to do each of them.

If it would be helpful for me to take Valentine's day for Kerri, I'd be glad to do that. Otherwise I will take Thanksgiving. That's Thanksgiving a year from now, not Thanksgiving in two weeks! I think the last thing I committed to so far in advance was my wedding!

Have a great day everyone,

Barbara

Sorry, forgot I had signed up for Card Swap #16 - Summertime.  I'll keep this one and let the spot go for Halloween.

Hi Barbara,

It’s good to see new blood on here! I've copied and pasted the future card swaps here, so it may be a little easier for all of us to digest them.

Right now #13 is wrapping up, so we are looking at #14 through 21.

The swaps that still need hostesses at this time are numbers 15, 17,  and 20.  (I put Katrina as hostess in #19) 

 Deb (Balt) has shown an interest in #19, the Halloween one. Deb, does that mean you'll give up #16? if someone is interested in hostessing it? So Barbara I'll see what Kerri has to say before assigning you Valentine's Day or Thanksgiving, ok? and I'll update this list. Thanks, Deni
