I've been doing it a couple years now and would like to pass the job on to someone else before the end of this month.

If someone is interested let me know and I will send you a email through GW telling you where I check for birthdays and I can also give you tips on simple html and graphics if you need them.

Thanks!

You've done a terrific job Lydia!!

I did it for a few days when you were without internet service this fall and if no one else comes forward, I can do it for you. It's nice to recognize each other on their special day!

I have no idea where you get the wonderful gifs though!

Hi Dukegg1, I'm so glad I finally located you and found the place to go and post. First things first; I didn't forget to post;I just didn't know where to go.((Please don't tell me where to go))LOL Dukegg1, Thank You ever so much for the wonderful plants you sent my way.They were very nicely named and tagged,And arrived in excellent condition. And the Potomac Pride is Awesome,I love every one and didn't have the ones you sent,So you really made my day!! Thank You for making my very first experience with the Secret Hosta Trade Swap,An exciting and special one for me.I was NOT disappointed in the least, But Pleasantly surprised!!! I hope the recipient of my plants will feel the same. I feel so bad for you all that posted and haven't received your trades yet.I think I must be very lucky to have a dependable person on my first time. I do hope you get them,I think if your not going to send the plants out, Then you shouldn't sign up for it.How terrible for the ones like bragu,Who excitedly looks forward to the mail and calls home to see if her Hostas have arrived yet.I hope your secret traders come through for you all. Daisyme; Thank You for letting me participate. This has been one of my favorites to do!! Granny57((Margie)) Todays Memories Are Tomorrows Treasures May You have many Yesterdays!!!

Does anyone want to take my paint samples?

also in our area Benjamin Moore will let you pay them to take them (samples and other paint). I know sounds awful to pay them yet again but it's pretty cheap. Much cheaper than trying to dry them out with cat litter IMO. It's like 75 cents for a quart and goes up per size of container. They have a printed brochure to help you with the details and prices for them to dispose of them for you. They do recycle the paint which was important to me.

Sorry, I can't help with that but would you mind taking a look at this one, please? It's from OHW (oldhouseweb.com) and someone asking if its a Sear's House. They are thinking of buying. I registered to be able to see the location, but her ID doesn't say. I'll ask, and I can probably copy the thread to here---maybe. Thanks, Sandy

Anyone want to weigh in or post pictures of your PebbleSheen?

We went with pebble sheen. We were originally going to do just Aqua Blue. After viewing a few pools that were Aqua Blue we didn't like the way the color on the shallow steps looked. Really grey and to me really took away from the rest of the pools Aqua color. No mater what color we choose for the pool the step and shallow area of the pool has a grey or green color. That's not the look I was going for so we decided on Desert Gold for all the shallow areas and steps and Blue Granite for the rest of the pool. Couldn't be happier with our decision. Here are some pics plus our entire pool process is on this forum as well under http://ths.gardenweb.com/discussions/2534843/new-pool-build-orangevale-ca?n=85 You will have to view the link to see how these colors look with water.

Uh-oh......now Lydia's going to have more time to think about the Kitchen Table Daily Trivia Game. She's already a force to be reckoned with! What's next?? ;-)

Jasdip, I hope somebody else will step up since you already do the daily question thread. We'll give it some more time.

I am going to quit with the birthdays regardless of whether or not somebody else wants to take over. I hope someone will.. I think the posts are a nice gesture.

Thanks to everyone who gave me 'pats on the back'. I appreciate it... and Alisande, I doubt those few extra free minutes in the morning are going to help my trivia game score... but if it does it'd be great! lol

I'm a member of another board where the birthday posts got out of hand, and became a real "chore" for the hostess.

We finally decided to post our OWN birthday threads and it works great - "Hey! It's my birthday!" gets just as much response as a hosted thread (plus, it's a whole lot easier - nobody feels left out, nobody gets "forgotten," and nobody needs to find someone to fill in if they're on vacation or their Internet service craps out. :)

Just a suggestion...

Just sent you a very long email Lynn! Let me know if you don't get it. Thanks!

That's a good idea too Chloecat! If Lynn decides she doesn't want to do it... that could be a viable option.

I agree with Chloecat. Everyone should post their own birthdays and that way if anyone gets left out, it's their own fault or it's on purpose because they don't want the attention. Perfect solution and thank you Lydia for everything you've done.
