Yes! Everyone’s name is on the card that contacted me, including yours PhoenixTears!! I wouldn’t forget you!
‘m so sorry if I haven’t responded to everything you have all sent me, I’ve been just buried in PMs lately and I may have missed one or two. We should hear more about this on Monday or Tuesday! Possibly sooner if the mailman is speedy. 😀

See PT Nam is just very busy, too busy to get back to everyone.

Yeah, I agree… The sooner the better. 😀Dragon Master wrote:be patient young grasshoppa all will reveal itself in due time!! I’m sure Nam has just been VERY busy as you said
I can tell you are a very caring person. Did “The Secret” help you in any way??
Grasshoppa 😆 I like that! I did listen to the first 2 discs of The Secret but her voice is SO soothing, I fell asleep both times. But, I still absorb that way. Right now it’s packed up with other CDs for the move so I havent access to it. And, Im slightly and unforuntately distracted by some crapola here so Im not really focused.But thanks for suggesting it and I KNOW it will be of great benefit to me once Im finally settled. Looking forward to it. Hope all is well with you!
Well the only real bad part of life right now is I’m losing my night shift and night pay (10% extra) as of 10-21-07. I may have to learn how to sell on e-bay and sell some things. I hope not but I have to keep my house

Ack! Thats a bummer and I hope it doesnt come to eBay for you. Ive already ducked a toe in that water and it’s exhausting and sometimes annoying, especially when buyers dont read the auction or respond to communication… or dont pay!
I’ll be around if you need an ear or shoulder.

Okay guys! Now that PT’s griffin is no longer a secret or surprise, let me tell you what I have though of while we were doing this.
This is not the first or last time we will get a gift to someone here, I bet! I’d like to suggest some sort of a gift pool that is three tiered. It needn’t be anything expensive or big. A curlie, or a hatchie, or even one of Maya’s wonderful pieces…
1. Where we get together and get a little gift for someone that is down on their luck, going though bad times, etc. I.E. getting DM’s gold curlie for him. This is sort of like sending flowers and a card, only this is something they can enjoy for a lifetime!
2. Where we get together and give to someone that is an outstanding member of the community- someone we have grown to love and has done generous things for us (etc).
3. A giving pool of unwanted Windstones. Okay, so there are rarely unwanted pieces, but sometimes there is a pieces you’ve ‘fallen out of love’ with, or perhaps you did a PYO you don’t want to keep, or perhaps your cat knocked your hatching dragon over and he has a tiny chip and you only keep mint pieces? If you don’t want to eBay it and don’t want to keep it, I suggest a sort of giving pool. All of us come from different financial backgrounds, and for some collecting even small pieces is hard due to finances. Not that anyone should be responsible for one’s finances but oneself, but I was thinking, wouldn’t it be neat if any unwanted pieces were somehow connected with the folks that would love them but couldn’t afford them? I’m not sure about the best way to go about this- that’s why I’m posting here- for input!!
So, what do you guys think? Am I totally nuts??
One last thing I should mention is that all though I love to help people out and give, my life has gotten pretty unstable with my move coming up (the unstable part is we don’t know when it will happen, eek!). I had a hard time keeping up with everything for PT’s gift and I regret that I don’t think I could organize anything further at this moment. So we’d need one or two people with a lot of time on their hands and a good giving heart to head these sorts of plans.
Thoughts? Rotten tomatos?

My art: featherdust.comI think it’s great! And I really like the idea of having a couple people in charge, so that it doesn’t become overwhelming for 1 person, and then there’s always a fallback person if someone gets sick.
I think it’s a nice idea, too. I don’t mind kicking in something to help make somebody’s day.
I even have a piece for the Windstone “pool”. How would we figure out who gets what from the “pool”, though? I have a young gold dragon that I just don’t love, but he smells like cigarette smoke. I know a lot of people wouldn’t want to receive him because of that (it’s not why I don’t love him). Anybody have any ideas how we could work it?

I don’t know- I was hoping someone here would have a brilliant idea!!
