Rhonda, I guess it was the invented questionaire that we all answered the last couple of times at least. Even asked my shoe size. I mean, are we buying the humans shoes? lol
I understand the intent of the questionaire but it just seemed to imply that it was expected to add in some stuff for the human. Not that I had a problem with that, but it IS money that could not be spent or diverted to be spent on the pup.
I also wanted to add to my previous statements. I realize people have been hurt in the past and that I'm "new". I live on this forum basically so I forget how new I am sometimes. But please remember that just because things happened in the past one way doesn't make it bad that they have evolved to a different way now. It's hard to let go of being hurt and I get that (been there in other areas)...just was hoping maybe, thru this discussion, we could all come together on the most important issues in some way (money, obligations/pressure/requirements, etc) so that the GE can at least have the "spirit" it was meant to have ..... fun and fellowship.
And, then I guess, in the end...we will end up having to agree to disagree and either you choose to join the GE or you don't. Pretty much, I am doing a GE all the time anyway (as I know many many many of you are, too!)...it's fun to give and support and surprise. I'm not signed up for anything, but I still get gifts in the mail and I still send gifts in the mail. It's actually fun
