Really? Why do you think so? We still have a four undeclared who haven't said when they are shipping.... so you never know!

This waiting period makes me nuts.

I read post 50 and thought all was wrapped up for OPAL. My bad... I'm not tracking OPAL, just lurking. Now TOPAZ, I'm anxiously watching and waiting.

Traveling Gramma, are you permanently in an RV? That sounds like wonderful fun! I would have to figure out what to do with all "stuff" if I were to do that. My husband and I both love books so we have a ton of books that I would have to get rid of. I've been thinking that living on a houseboat might be fun, too. I better go work on some of my quilts so I don't have so much fabric to deal with.... Found some wonderful deep green velveteen at the thrift store the other day. Perfect for the natural fiber crazy quilt I've been collecting fabric for.... So many quilts, so little time...

A lot of packages are supposed to arrive early next week but we've already had one delayed by 2 days. We shall see :)

If I am reading this correct, this group has all mailed and she should be full up by Tuesday of next week with lots of squishies.

Yes we do.Moved into our fifth wheel in 2003 and have had no regrets. Books are easy - I love libraries. And each town in each state has a totally unique one. So I collect library 'cards'!! A lot of campgrounds also have a swap library - leave one take one.

This is just scary. I was on FB and it has names of people who they think you should be friends with. Mona Gr.... came up and I only know of one Mona. How does FB know ??? Scary. BTW - MonaG, I could see everything on your FB.

I totally agree with you. Privacy is a thing of the past! I used this laptop only a few times for work, back in 2012, and yet to this day the names of some of our clients pop up in my FB as people I might want to friend. Clearly FB has gotten access to my email addresses or emails from back then. I don't know how this works but I'm pretty sure someone else here does. I'm pretty protective of my personal information and I don't use FB for anything but a few posts a year and to keep up with my few contacts. I refuse to use their message system and my son told me that everything you type in FB, even if you change your wording or delete it before posting, is logged on FB, keystroke for keystroke, as it's done. My son is generally right about all that stuff and I'll accept his word on that. As for MonaG, if that's the same Mona and I'll bet it is, she must have her profile as public.

Pretty scary stuff.
