It looks like the majority prefer choice B. It's a pretty good compromise and allows lots of time to pack up seeds after want lists are final. Christmas falls during the time I will be sorting and packing seeds for the return trip, but I added a few extra days to allow for that. I really hope I can mail seeds back before Jan. 13. I am tweaking the rules and procedures a bit and will post the sign up thread in just a few days.

lol I have a little room upstairs where I keep all my seed stuff. After I mailed out the last package last year, I just closed the door and did not go back in there to deal with the mess for weeks! Downstairs there are too many cats, and it takes only one to make a complete disaster of a seed box. This year I am going to take photos of the seed sorting and result mess! Mary, I'll update your list right now!

Wow! Some of you are ready to mail already? I am not even close yet!:) To those of you that are having issues with your updates not taking,jaynine,Janine,posted that if you completely close GW after updating and sign back in it takes. I am going to be sure all of mine took also,just in case!;) Angela,it is so nice of you to offer,Thank you! For now, I sort of have my own plan,I haven't started yet,but if I think mine may be a no go,I may just take you up on it!:) I have everyones name,and link to their trade page in a file,as I find seeds I have on their wants I am going to copy and paste those I have into the file under their name,print it out and sit down with my seeds and pack them up...that is the plan,hopefully it goes as smoothly as I have imagined!;) Please, if you update, post so we know! Many people may not be checking lists twice considering the update deadline has past,but there are those of us that will be checking them up to the mailing deadline. So if you make changes,let us know!:) Karen & Nancy,I would email Patty and ask her opinion,just in case she misses your post!I am curious of what she has to say,because I already know I am well past the 200 limit myself...lol...:) I have mentioned this before,in case any of you missed it. Last year someone suggested that we all send Patty an extra stamp or two with our postage to help with any overages she may have at the PO on the big mailing day. This was not something Patty suggested,just something I thought was a nice thing we could possibly carry over to this year!:) Tina,I was thinking of doing the same thing,like you,am going to get my final total and take out the general ones,unless of course, I have some awesome plant I want share that fits into a general category!;) stage rat,it was dirtdiggin that said she has an excel spreadsheet made up of the players for the swap.I totally agree,having the original on a notepad of some kind is always best!:) Well,I will be off the computer,until after Christmas! Lots to do here and the kids were off school today because of some really cold weather,wind chills at -10 to -20,so not much got done,tomorrow I will catch up on the house...again... and than we are going to bake and start preparing for Christmas dinner before going to MIL's for Christmas Eve dinner!:) I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!:)
