Congrats on the new job Roni!!! And I STILL don't have my cookies!

And Heidi, seriously! I miss my roomie!!! (But the bf is really awesome, so I'm not complaining!) And how have I been living with her for three months already and STILL we've yet to meet??

haha, Leigh, I had to laugh that you put "adult" in quotes! So true!!!

Roni, do you mail cookies??? I think girl scouts in my area have disappeared off the face of the earth!

Stacey, keep those emails going!

I'm home from Iowa... not sure where I am mentally! I guess I'd better get ready for services tonight!

Take care, all.

Hi quantum,
I'm glad you're better.

How did things go? OK, I guess. I survived my visit to my inlaws, lol. The Conference was good. I'm tired though. (Does that have anything to do with traveling 1700 miles?) Now it's back to business...

I have an interview on the Tuesday after Easter at a small congregation in a neighboring synod.

haha, NO!

I've met my roommate, thanks to heidi

I haven't met Heidi by some really messed up schedules we all keep!

And I've met my roommates boyfriend once! Well, he stayed with us for a few days so I've seen him more than the once - during which I decided he's great - just like my roomie! I'm very happy for them!

Is that better?

Roni!!!! Love how you slid that in at the bottom!!! Great news!!

Well, I am sitting here eating a thin mint at the moment. Don't know if 4 boxes will last until whenever but I hope to have them last atleast until the 15th. If they last through then then I will be ok.

off for another cookie............................

I GOT MY COOKIES!!!!



Oh yeah, and my visit is a month from today. Tragically, I'm a little more excited about the cookies, since there's no stress associated with my thin mints, except worrying about them running out!

You liked how I slid in the job news?? ROFL!!

I picked up 115 cases of cookies on feb 22nd. I went and picked up 4 more cases of cookies last Friday. I think I have to go get 10 more cases of cookies tomorrow!!!

Last Saturday we had a booth sale at Blockbuster...I had 3 girls and we only sold 23 boxes. Sunday we were at a grocery store and sold 70 boxes with only 2 girls. Sunday night I sent out an email to the parents letting them know how we did and how the 23 boxes were divided between the 3 girls and the one girl with the lowest cookie numbers received the credit for the extra 2 boxes and the 2 girls who worked the booth on Sunday received credit for 35 boxes each. At the end of the email I put in how many girls I still need for the next 4 cookie booths. The following morning I had about 6 parents say their girls will be there. ROFL!! I wonder if it was the "Two of the girls recieved 35 boxes toward their cookie count" that got their attention???? I don't want to drag my little one there for every booth, it's not fair to her or the other girls...she is the top seller at 335 boxes so far!!! I want to give the other girls a chance!!!

Wow...that was a long post!! ROFL!!!

I really will buy a couple boxes if you'll send them to PA. (I'll even pay postage... she says plaintively...)

LOL!! I still haven't bought any cookies!!! I guess that's because I know I will end up buying up all of our extra thin mints, samoas, tagalongs and all abouts!!! Good thing I got a job so I can afford my GS Cookie addiction

Oceans- the weird thing we keep referring to is that I actually put TG and her roommate in touch, they hit it off, moved in together and have now lived together for 3 months...but I still haven't met TG! Her roomie is one of my best friends, my former college roomie that I've known since we were 18. We just have opposite schedules and we can't them all to jive yet!

Roni- My hips are DEFINITELY flaunting my GS cookies!! And congrats on the job!

Kathy...maybe I should send you my GS cookies. ;-p DO keep us updated on your interview process.

HUGS to all.
