Anyone interested in playing Secret Santa?

Archie, MO(Zone 5b)

I was asked how to add a note to your home page by another member so I thought I would post instructions here for others who might not know.

After signing in to Daves Garden click on the "HOME" tab. The line of links under this will list "My Info". Click on this and it will take you to "Your Garden Site". In the first box named "Your Actions" click on Manage Preferences".

This will take you to your main page of preferences. In the grey box running down the left hand side click on "member page", once there scroll down until you see "You may now enter a paragraph of content that you would like to appear on your member page".

Here is where you can type a wish list or anything else you want us to know.

Other members can view this by finding a thread we have started or responded to and clicking on our name under the author column. It will take them to your Garden Site and they can scroll down to where the Notes will appear.

Hope this helps! I know that was the first place I looked up my person to see if there was anything they were wanting.

Lisa - thank you so much for your post! I always forget that we might not all be on the same page. I've heard from a couple of people who were having trouble relocating the thread, and when I referenced the thread watcher, they were unaware of the option.

Hopefully this will help everyone out!

Spokane, WA(Zone 5b)

How do we know what numbers have already been chosen?

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

As indicated in the e-mail I sent you, look at the list I posted about 2/3's of the way down on this post! As I also mentioned in the e-mail, the list was updated earlier today..

Sand Springs, OK(Zone 7a)

you gave me my number 39 is this who i send to if so e-methere name and address so i can mail ??/ confused Tazzy

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

Tazzy, you picked #39. I sent an e-mail earlier, but seem to be having trouble with my outgoing e-mails. Will try again...

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

mjtip - Please send me a note ASAP. We have a problem with the person you drew.

Thx!

Sequee...I'm waiting with bated breath..and I'm already cutting the little decorative envelopes...Who's seeds am I preparing?? LOL email me..if it's working...LOL

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

Kim- I don't know what's up here. I can send out e-mails by going through the "mail" tab, but anything I send out from this thread is going to outer space - black hole? Will send you a note in a few minutes!

Summerville, SC(Zone 8a)

I would like 15 please and thank you, Carol (nancyjean)

Richland Center, WI(Zone 4a)

For some reason I feel really lost here! lol Just pick me a number and let me know what I am to do.
Thanks

Greenback, TN

I pick 13 or 3 - whichever is available 13 being first choice. Yay!

Livermore, CA(Zone 9a)

Sorry I am late for getting here to pick my number. I will take #18 if it hasn't already been picked.

Freedom, PA(Zone 6a)

I am mailing my secret santa seeds today, and Sequee a seed package coming your way also. Thanks, Cathy

(Zone 7a)

Woohooo! I just went on the hunt for seeds for my "Secret" Person...He he he Great Fun! Fun Fun Fun! All packed up..Should I send it near Christmas or can I send now?

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

When contacting everyone this weekend I realized I'd neglected to add JanetS to the list. I sent her a note and she is still interested in joining us, so we are now 49. The remaining numbers are:

4, 5, 43, 46, 47, 49.

(I just pulled out one person's name and made them #49 and gave Janet that person's original number.) Hope everyone's ok with that!

I think I'm going to bow out of this one, this time. I have too much on my plate right now, and don't want to get into something I can't finish. Sorry!

(Zone 7a)

Awww C'mon...Karrie..I'm sure you can find a few seeds. You have sent me great seeds in those Cute Little packs :-D

Richland Center, WI(Zone 4a)

I pick 32 if it is still available.

Seymour, IN(Zone 5b)

I appologize for not picking a number. I thought I would be assigned a name as in the secret plant trades. Give me number 41 if it is still not taken. Assign me one if it is already gone. Where is the thread with the rules? I thought I was watching this tread, and I never got any new updates on it. Thanks Lou

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

Karrie, I think that would be a little unfair at this point, since some (a very cool someone, I might add!) already picked your number and has spent time picking out special seeds for you.

If you're really short on time, I will be happy to do the research for you. That might save a little time!

Lou, flowernut and Elva - your numbers are good. I just updated the thread with the available numbers.

La Crescent, MN

hey all ... I'm so very sorry I'm late, it's been a madhouse around here! may I have number 20??

~RedMolly

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

You're not alone there, kiddo! 20 is yours! I'll get a note out to you via e-mail before the evening's over!

Spokane, WA(Zone 5b)

Sequee, it's not that. I'm in the middle of some medical problems right now. But if it isn't going to be a long drawn out thing, then I will try. Just please pick a number for me - I have no idea which numbers are available.

What did you mean by research?

Karrie-- As soon as you pick a number Sequee will email you your person's name and address. Then you are free to mail your seeds to that person as soon as you like.

If I'm correct these are the numbers left........4, 5, 36, 43, 46, 47, 49.

The sooner you pick a number the sooner you will find out who you have drawn.

Hope everything goes well for you.....

You really don't have to do research Karrie, you can just send packs of "Your" favorite seeds. That way you are sending what you like and maybe you will be introducing something new to them and they will love it.

Karrie - Don't worry about it. I'll just take care of the extra person.

Be well! Nothing is more depressing than being ill around the holidays!

No, Sequee, I want to do this. I want number 36 if it is still available, and please email me my info.

Greenback, TN

I hope you get to feeling better soon Karrie. I'm going through some of those type problems myself right now and they make it tough don't they? *sending happy vibes*

Spokane, WA(Zone 5b)

yes - I get real down in the dumps. maybe something like this will give me something else to think about.

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

Karrie, 36 is yours. You have mail!

Happy Thanksgiving y'all!

Palmyra, IL(Zone 5b)
