ReCommitment time!!!

OKAY...so I'm going to put this out there.  And I'm doing this out of courage...cause I don't want to offend anyone at all!  That is not the point of this post at all.  So here goes...I feel as though our group is falling apart...and it makes me sad.  I know we are all sooooo stinkin busy, believe me, I really do know.  But I feel like maybe the umph isn't there anymore for our group.  I think we have simplified it by meeting only every other month.  That will help everyone, but I am wanting everyone to WANT to do this, not feel like it is a burden.  I love you gals, and I love seeing you. 
I am asking everyone to pledge, recommit, whatever you want to call it, to our group.  It has been super hard to get any response on this blog, or my emails.  It gets so frustrating to me to try to reach each one of you to let you know what's going on.  It's starting to make this not fun for me, and I want it to be fun. I feel like this blog is our lifeline, since we don't all live close to each other, or chat on the phone all that much. So I guess what I am trying to say is this...This blog is our communication line from here on out.  I just don't have time to send emails and post on here, nor do any of us I think.  So please check the blog on a regular basis.  I know that not all of us are on our computers all that much, but please check this blog and comment.  My goals for this blog were mainly to bring us closer as a group of friends.  Not just for info on where we are meeting and all that stuff, but to share ideas, life stories, inspirations, vent our frustrations, giving or needing advice, etc.  I value what each one of you think, and I would love to "chat" on here with all of you!!!  I think we are an awesome group, and would love to continue building our friendships.  I know, corny, but true!!!
Please comment on here so I know everyone got this message, comment regularly so we can have a great time, and please have fun!!! 
Also I know that there were a few of us that still wanted to do recipes.  So will you all comment on here and say what you want to swap...just cards or cards and recipes.
Love you gals!!!

NO swap for this month....

I have quite a few respond to my email that said they cannot go tomorrow...so let's plan on May.  We will meet at The Cholocate in Orem...on the 20th....and we will swap our breakfast recipes and cards.  Sound good? :)
Have a good month and we will live it up in May before our kids are out of school!

OH and is there any of you that still want to do the recipes with the cards?  I want to if anyone else is up to it.

Hey Girlies. . .

Looks like we are having a hard time getting people out this month because we are all so crazy busy. Should we just cancel month and do cards and our final recipe swap together in May.
PLEASE OH PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS SO WE KNOW WHAT TO DO. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT EVERYONE WANTS WITHOUT YOUR INPUT :)

Swap this week...

Okay...so we didn't get many comments for what day you all wanted to do the swap this week.  :(
So here's the scoop, since it is too close to Tuesday we will meet on Thursday, 8:00, at SubZero ice cream in AF.  Hopefully me and Julie can meet you guys late.  This will be our final official recipe swap.  The theme is breakfast food, right?  (I wasn't there when ya'll decided on the theme, but that is what I have heard.)

According to the poll...it looks like we will meet every other month, doing just cards.  There are 3 gals that want to still do recipes, which I am one of them.  I don't know who the other 2 were, but if you 2 would like to swap every other month, on the same day as we do cards, I am up for that!  Just let me know.  3 recipes are better than none right?

We will start our every other month of swapping cards in May.  This way we will not be meeting in December when things are so crazy.  Let's meet at The Chocolate in Orem on the 20th of May at 8:00 pm.  Sound good?

Hopefully I will see you all Thursday..but I will send my recipes.

So to wrap it all up, and keep the dates straight, we are meeting this week at SubZero ice cream in AF.
In May, we are meeting on May 20th, at The Chocolate in Orem.

April Swap...PLEASE COMMENT AND VOTE ON THE SIDEBAR :)

Ok.  So I sent out an email about swap this month, and about swap in the future.  So far this is what I have gotten as feedback...

"Every month seems to come around faster and faster.  I think if we went back to every other month it would be less stress.  Especially with summer coming.   FYI, next Thursday is the pinewood derby so I probably wont be there.   I like doing recipes because they are easier for some reason.  But, whatever the majority wants to do, i'm cool with.
Thanks for all you do to keep the glitter gals going!"

 "ok this is just my opinion.....
 I would rather do this month next week
I would rather do just cards and I would like to do
every other month....
There ya go" 
 
Another gal wants to do every other month for cards and no recipes, and wants to do them next week for this month.  And another gal wants to do it next week too.

 What's my opinion?  I vote every other month too.  We could alternate cards and recipes like we do, just do it every other month, or we can just do cards, or just recipes.  Or we could still do both, and just swap both recipes and cards on the same night, every other month.  How's that for confusing?  So, I am going to post a poll on the right sidebar again.  Please vote for your choice there...I will post 2 different ones.  One for whether or not to go every other month....and what you want to swap.  We will go with the majority.

As for next week, is there anyway you all could do it on Tuesday night instead of Thursday?

This is kinda an important post, cause we are determining our club, so please vote, comment, and get those you talk/text/email to do the same k?
