Y'all have been great about helping me restock my office supplies. I'm really surprised at the responses I have received to my previous posts. I am fully stocked on tape, steno pads and post it note pads now, thanks to you guys.
Now I'm in need of some fine point permanent markers, the skinny ones that you can use as a regular pen. Sharpie makes an Ultra Fine Point one, and Bic makes an Ultra Fine Point Mark It. These are not the fat permanent markers, but rather the skinny, easy to write with markers, great for writing personal letters and taking notes. You may even find some similar ones at the dollar store under various names. The brand doesn't really matter as long as it is ultra fine point and permanent. I need blue or black ink.
I'm also in need of some Pilot pens. I use the Pilot Precise V Rolling Ball extra fine pens only. I don't like Bics or other kinds of pens. At the dollar store, I did find a generic pen very much like this Pilot pen I like so well. It's called a Beifa Tank Pen BE-A5 Free Ink Roller, 0.5 point. These pens have a visible tank where you can watch the ink level. But it's the fine point that I like so well. I need blue, black, and red ink in these pens.
I will trade 7 packs of seeds for 3 markers or pens. Before committing, make sure you can obtain these types of pens. I really don't use any others. Below is a picture of the various pens I've mentioned.
Below are the seeds I have left. Each pack of seeds contains 20 or more seeds, unless noted. Some contain 100 or more, depending on what quantity I've collected. Most of these seeds were gathered from my own gardens in 2005. A few are from commercial packs. I have these seeds:

You can mix and match the seeds. You don't have to get 7 of one kind. We can trade 7 packs for 3 pens, 14 packs for 6 pens, etc. You can mix pens and markers if you wish. I can use both.
I mail all my seeds in REAL bubble mailers to insure their safety. Please mail the pens and markers in a bubble mailer too so they don't get crushed in the mail.
Let me know if you're interested in trading for any of these. Thank you all for the wonderful trades.

HAVE: Lots of Seeds for Permenant Markers and Ink Pens
You have dmail. :o)
NancyAnn...
If you get all the office supplies you are asking for you won't have to buy any for years, I will have plenty of seeds this fall & maybe I can get someone to furnish my home but the furniture won't fit in the bubble envelopes.
That's the whole point of trading, isn't it--to get rid of what you don't need and get something else you do? I'm a big barterer. And I get lots of responses to my posts. My seed box is dwindling and my supply cabinet is filling up. It's really great right now since I'm recovering from surgery and can't get out to get the basic stuff I need. I'm out of pens and soon they'll be arriving in the mail. How cool is that!
Sure wish some new furniture would fit in an envelope. I'd certainly try to trade for some. LOL I have done some in-person plant trades for some big stuff, but I haven't tried to trade for furniture yet. Maybe I'll do that next. Thanks for the idea, Roseman2.
NancyAnn
NancyAnn.. LOL. Just having a little fun since I used to live in Paragould, Ark when I was younger & I picked a lot of cotten Just 5 miles south of town in a place called New Hope. The Flanery's was a big name back then. New Hope is no longer there now & things don't look the same anymore. Hope you are doing better after surgery.
You just don't see anyone anymore from so close to where I had lived.
Jerry.
Hey Jerry, as you know, Jboro is only about 20 minutes from paragould. I was born and raised here. My folks used to pick cotton. And when I had a son, we stopped on the roadside once to pick up some of the "fluffy white stuff" that had fallen off the combines so he could see real cotton.
Jboro and Pgould are both "cities" now and you don't see much farmland anymore. I miss waking to the sounds of tractors and crop dusters. Now it's 18 wheelers and ambulances.
Next time you're in these parts, holler at me. Maybe we can do some trading. I even have some furniture now I might trade ya. LOL
NancyAnn
You have d-mail :oP
God Bless,
Keith

Noell, do you have the particular pens and sharpies I pictured above? I don't like the fat sharpies. They don't fit my hands right. I only use the pens and markers pictured above.
If you have those, let me know which seeds you'd like.
NancyAnn
Nancyann,
Thank you so much for the trade. You were very generous and i can't wait to see all my beautyfull flowers. Do i need to wait until fall or winter to plant these or can i go ahead and start some seeds?
I am looking forward to posting my picture's of the plants i grow from your seed's and other's on here.
I hope you continue to get better and am praying for your strength.
God Bless,
Keith
Keith, I don't know why you couldn't sow some now. It might be a good idea to pop them in the freezer for a couple of weeks first. That would help some of them germinate better. Thank you for the trade. I hope you enjoy your new flowers.
NancyAnn
