GAME 4

GIRLS + FUN = COLLEGE FOOTBALL

OK FUN GIRLS it is almost over. We are down to the nitty
gritty!!

Everyone has their points going in to week 4....BUT.... a
few different twists for this coming Saturday.

*You will each have the favorite (so the oddsmakers say) team
in the game, as you did last week.

*But this week you will get TOTAL POINTS scored in the game
by both teams.

*If your team wins, you get an additional 10 points. If your team loses, I will take 10 points off.....BOOOOOOOO!

*And the kicker....hahaha....each of you will be playing one
other person, but you each have your own game... so there will be 6 WINNERS. Each WINNER gets a Prize!!

*You want the game to be very high scoring (both teams) AND
want your team to WIN the game.

***Because Erica had less than 50 pts...she received a 10
point bonus perk.

WEEK 4 (Saturday, October 29)

*Next to your name are your total points entering week 4.
The team next to your name is your team (which is the favorite in the game they
are playing in). You will see yourself somewhere below. In each matchup,
whoever has the most points, when all is said and done, will win. EX If Shirley ends up having 201 pts and Jayeanne has 199 pts...Shirley Wins. And the same goes for the other 5 matchups.

Any Q's ask.

So here are the matchups....

*Shirley (159 pts)...Tennessee

PLAYS

*Jayeanne (158 pts)... Florida

______________

*Ruth (121 pts)....Louisville

PLAYS

*Emily (108 pts)....TCU

I only need one more word!

However, due to changing internet service, I won't be back online until some time next week. See ya all in a few days!

Shirley!

Are you all enjoying warm weather? It was 80 degrees yesterday here in Nebraska--the end of October. I've gone Trick-or-Treating in a snowsuit once or twice so it can be COLD. Wow. I'm not complaining. Enjoying every second. Heidi

I just need one more word too... it's going to be a close one for everyone I think!

I need one more word as well!!! Its tight race!!

TGIF 2 Everyone!!

I'm behind. I need two more!

I just checked the list and I have BINGO!!!

Updated: At first I worried about #3. I had it marked off (luscusious berries) and when I looked a few minutes ago I didn't find it on the list, but now I see it. Hooray!

The last time I looked I needed 3 more words so I'm surprised.

Jeanne

Congratulations, Jeanne!

OH My Goodness....A FUN GIRL won BINGO!!! Congratulations Jeanne....I just checked all of the FUN BINGO cards to make sure no one else won...and no one else won.

Thanks all for playing!!

Happy Sunday!

Annie

Happy Halloween everyone. Enjoy your day!

Faye!

Good Morning/Afternoon FUN GIRLS,

I spoke with Shirley yesterday via the telephone. She did receive her wonderful GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN package from Faye.... She will post all the FUN details after her internet is up an running.

I just checked the tracking on Breanne's GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN package to Erica....delivery was yesterday, Oct 31. I am sure we will be hearing from Erica soon.

Some prizes have already been sent and received....RE: Prize winners for BINGO, GIRLS + FUN = COLLEGE FOOTBALL and TWO FUN GIRLS AND A FUN GUY....I will let each of you "winners" know when they are sent out, via PM or email. Tiz easier for me to do it that way versus posting here.

Happy Fun day!!

Annie

So apparently my post from the other day thanking Breanne somehow disappeared. It was full picture and all! Let me try this again (and sorry Annie that you had to ask me via message. I promise that I wasn't slacking).

Breanne -- Thank you so much for the super fun girly gift pack that you sent! I loved everything!

Erica...no problem!! You always post when you send and receive. I figured you were out of town. When I read yesterday that the package had been delivered (I am pretty sure it said "porch")...I thought she is out of town...Oh my, I hope it does not get ripped off.

And I have posted before and the posts have disappeared more than once....no apologies necessary.

FUN GIRLS we are done here except for Shirley posting her GIRL FUN from Faye in the next few days.

Thanks all for playing...

Annie

yay Erica, glad it arrived safely and that you like what I put in!

everyone put on your Cubs colors and cheer with me for game seven ...I am ready for this drought to be OVER! :)

And the Chicago Cubs did it! The drought is over!!

Jeanne has posted the November Fotess swap celebrating Native Americans....do check it out.

http://forums.gardenweb.com/discussions/4260705/nov-fotess-swap-a-month-to-celebrate-native-americans?n=6

Have a wonderful day!

Annie

Hey, Everyone! My Internet is back up and running! YAY!!

I want to thank Annie for hosting for us, for the month of October. The swap was just great, I had fun with it, as I'm sure everyone else did too.

THANK YOU, ANNIE!

Also wanted to thank Faye for the great package, she is so generous! I've enjoyed everything she sent! Thank you, Faye! She sent 13 packs of seeds that I am really looking forward to trying. Great job, Faye!

Cooolll package Faye...

Shirley...glad your back to earth...LOL! I must say we all, (most of us), survived without the internet for years and years and years ect.....Little young-ins have no idea what I am talking about when I say that!!!!

Girls who have prizes coming...working on it, slowly but surely.....will keep you posted via email/pm.
