Anyone else feeling left out? Hehe

[dtrahan511]

I wouldn't say we feel left out, because we had great fun participating in the hint threads...at least in the beginning. I think if people want to wait to send out their boxes, that's great...but at least keep giving hints until you do!!!! It's exciting to see the thank you threads, but the hint threads seem like they've almost faded to nothing, even though several are still waiting on their boxes!!! Is that the way it's supposed to be? This is only our second ge, so we're just curious!!!! Our teaser hint card did have the return address of the buddy that we sent to.....the swap idea looks pretty accurate so far!!! Hmmmmm........

Since this was our first GE I can use being a Newbie for my excuses or shortcomings, can't I? Seriously though, I had a great time. Our box went out on Monday and our SB should have it any time. I was a little later than I would have liked to have been in getting my box out, but still within the time frame. I loved the hint threads too but I will admit. I did get a little overwhelmed with them at first. I am addicted though. I feel like I have made some friends (which was my whole goal) and I am already looking forward to my next one. I will do a lot of things different and be more on top of my game, next time too.

Mary, we haven't got our box yet & have NO IDEA who our buddies are. We did however receive teasers! I haven't had time to look at all the hint threads, but even if I did & have a spreadsheet going...I'd still be confused & lost! I was so busy the last few weeks that I couldn't send out our boxes til just yesterday...didn't want to kill our SB w/torturous anticipation lol!

I FINALLY have enough posts, so next time I will for sure... its soo much fun watching what everyone gets.

Yay! I agree, watching the furbabies w/all their loot is the best part of the GE!

If that makes sense?
I have a spreadsheet going..

Meagan...what does your spreadsheet say about Princess & Turbo? Kekee who has us?

Not that I feel left out but don't liek getting a box sent to me the last week...hehehe!

Hanna got a teaser and she loved it. We have not received our box yet. I know that not everyone got each other for SB's.

It does appear that some planned better than others and others used a lot of online sources that take time. Besides 'life' issues that sometimes play a part and not to mention all of the wrapping (hehe - took us two long nites to wrap our goodies in tissue and then with special yorkie ribbon).

But of course, this was our first and we got WAYYYYYYYYY excited and got WAYYYYYYYYYY too much stuff Soo hopefully our SB's wait will be worth it

[tortoisekeeper]

I am sure that the wait will be worth it for all of us. It is not important how much we get. I am just glad to have a SB.

Huggs to anyone who may be feeling sad or 'left out'!!

I am confident nothing was intended. Personally, I was shocked to see so many boxes being shipped so early. I had thought that most would be sent towards the end of the month - with people needing time to shop, etc.

This has been soooooooooo much fun for us - just the exchange with each other online and the kinship I feel with so many already. I wouldn't trade it for anything!!

I quite agree but was hoping to 'bribe' our SB into not feeling bad, if they are

Happy Day Everyone!!

Candy got a couple of teasers and she is still waiting for her box. We haven't mailed out ours yet. Still filling up the box!
I don't understand why they keep putting the same people together. I thought it would be random. I would love for our SB to be ours but that sorta takes all the fun out of it if you know that you are going to have each other each time. This seems to be the norm here as the last 5 GE's we have ended up having the same SB as had us. On 2 different GE's we even had the SAME PERSON!! Seems like a lazy way to put it together. The first time was cute but every time??? If this is the case, why does it take 3 days to get the names put together?? Just saying...not complaining as we LOVE GE's!!!
Be patient SB!! We will probably be mailing on Monday, the deadline. Life happens here! LOL!!

Well we got our box and teasers but were still having fun watching everybody else open their boxes. Im glad everyone sends them out at different times, it prolongs the fun! All you guys are great, I am totally addicted.

yeah i remember participating in 1 where it was whoever you had had you....i think that was several Valentines one ago...i do agree it does take the fun out of it since i remember when we were doing hint threads it was kinda obvious when boxes were received and it sorta just died out....

[xxmxaxrxyxx]

ok i do want to clarify something...lol...we are not feeling left out...it was a cheap attempt to figure out who had us...lol....trying to see who still haven't sent or receive so i can narrow it down....lol...i hope i didn't make my sb feel bad because that was not my intention...lol...i was just trying to be sorta sneaky in trying to figure out who had Ting Ting....lol

[linda44]

patience my dear patience...........
