NEW PARTICIPANTS ALWAYS WELCOME :welcome:
*** New Members and changes have been made - Current list dated through September 24th 2007 is now available
I know a lot of us like to receive snail mail greetings and we like to surprise people with them.
Sometimes it's tricky to get ahold of an address without spoiling the surprise.
If you would like to be a part of this list and do not have a problem with any Well Intentioned member having your address Please send an email to
kathbratsweeps@aol.com
Subject: OLS Snail Mail
Content:
OLS Name
Name
Address
I am going to only provide lists of names ONLY
to those that request a list via email to KathBratSweeps@aol.com
If you just need ONE name -Please send email as the PM box gets too full for me to manage and if the server is stuck - well so am I
Emails will NO LONGER be included or shared- those that do Ecards and enjoy them that's great
My goal for this project is to focus on SNAIL FUN :)
Email responses from me - Turnaround time should be within ONE Week of your inquiry - to allow time for schedules etc.
UPDATE **** MAY 4th
This has been moved to SWAPS - due to a LOT of confusion
with help of The WONDERFUL Ms KB This is now with a NEW title - SNAIL MAIL FUN ONGOING
Please feel free to continue to join in and participate

Subject: OLS Snail Mail
Content:
OLS Name
Name
Address
**NOTE if you do NOT want your email addy to be shared PLEASE advise in your SIGN UP** IF you have already signed up and want email private just let me know
I am then volunteering to prepare and maintain an electronic list that can be easily looked up and shared as requested *by email as my PM box tends to get overflowed*
Please know that At any time you may ask for a hold on you info or any other special notes you may want to share.
Updated lists are available the 15th of each month but you can get the current one any day you request - the next update will be available on 3/16 - It will be distributed in multi format to all on the list-
If you need a copy outside of the distribution - please send me an email with the subject
LIST REQUEST - OLS SNAIL MAIL
I was thinking of making a contest out of this by choosing a random email - so be prepared for a SURPRISE if you participate.
Thank you all for making this a warm wonderful place to make friends and sharing and caring about each other. It makes this a very special place to be a part of the community
Clarification for those considering joining
ONE
I pick random people from this list and send surprises
TWO
- which is even better - Other OLS Members have a SAFE CENTRAL location to obtain your address that will be shared when someone wants to send you a Surprise
Thus not having to "spoil" any surprise
AND
If I have your address from another swap, trade, etc - I have NOT added you to this list - I will NOT PRESUME that your address is to be passed on without your say so.
Above is the main idea -UPDATED MARCH 12, 2007
EDITED 02/02/07
We are now over 100 people on the list = and growing
Below are the notes of how we have developed since the inception in Dec 2006
********************UPDATE FEBRUARY 17TH***************
I have had to work day shift these past two weeks (yuckkkkkers) I am now back to my night shift and just starting to clean out PM's and go through email and my snail mail from the week - Please be patient while I play catch up
February's updated list will be available on SUNDAY 2/18
I am having trouble figuring out how to do a non Excel list - so if anyone has suggestions - PLEASE let me know
THANK YOU TO EACH of YOU - YOU have made this a WONDERFUL experience and it is totally ongoing - so PLEASE hang in if you have not received anything yet This is meant to last through 2007 and perhaps beyone :)

Sometimes it's tricky to get ahold of an address without spoiling the surprise.
I am looking to propose a Master Snail List Sounds kinda weird like eating escargot

--------updates--------January 12, 2007----------updates-------
We are fast approaching 100 participants! Many have continued to send/receive addys
Due to posted popularity - if you receive something and want to acknowledge public - this is the Post to do it as people are subscribing to the thread and it's easy reference.
The FIRST list will be ready on Monday 1/15
I have to be honest - it is tricky for my email & PM's to keep track of who wants a list
So I have to ask that you send a request to my email with subject as follows and below is how you will receive it back. My apologies but I am afraid I will miss someone if I can't "organize my brain" this way.
LIST REQUEST - OLS SNAIL MAIL
Then tell me Excel or Other format
I will reply via the email with the list attached. (I love the email sort by subject feature )
Requests for one or two names is not a problem via email or PM in any format
Okay I think I have covered all the items that have come up this past week
Again and Again I can't stop saying HOW FUN IS THIS?!?!?! OH YEAH!!
-----Updated Jan 5, 2007------
WOO HOO we are now 70 members strong as of Friday January 5th, 2007
(addtl edit 01/05/07)
So what has been happening behind the email you ask?
I have been adding everyone into an excel spreadsheet - those of you who ask for the list
but don't have excel - please let me know at time of request so I can convert the most current info.
Other exciting news - I have several requests for random names to surprise - so keep an eye out. I would like to suggest that when you send surprises include the words "OLS Snail Mail Fun" when possible
When you receive something-
we can post it in the RAOK thread -or send PM -or whatever makes you smile
Okay I am updating New On top - but maybe I should do new on bottom - suggestions?
Thanks y'all - this is definately a fun project.
=================================================================
NEW 2007 YEAR Clarification There is TWO parts to this

Thanks! I love the idea of a random swap.I can no longer afford to do too many of them but a card or a little teeny gift here and there is great!
My trip is to Sedona beginning of April. It's a trip win! I hope it's warm enough to swim in the outdoor pool at the hotel. We're only there for 3 nights. Staying in Sedona area and will visit Grand Canyon one day. We are so excited!

I just got a package from blopatin (Barbara). I am so thrilled! First, she made a beautiful hand made card on her computer. On the front is a chipmunk with my name on it and inside is a very sweet note! I loved it. Then, she sent a big Hershey's Kiss (ate it so fast my head spun!) :laugh: and to top it off--she also sent a really sweet Ty beanie baby called Fairy Dust! I had never seen this one before. I love it. My daughter wants to take it away from me. I said...no way! It's right here now next to my computer to bring me luck! I will be on the lookout when I shop, I would love to buy some for people to spread the fairy dust luck!
Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness! Big hugs back at ya! xxoo Grace

Isn't little Fairy Dust cute? I bought all the store had so I can send some out to other OLSers...I can't think of anyone who'd understand better than us! Happy Valentine's Day.
Gotta go check my list to send another :gift: out.
Good day everyone. Barbara
blopatin just made my day! :jump:
I just got a package from blopatin (Barbara). I am so thrilled! First, she made a beautiful hand made card on her computer. On the front is a chipmunk with my name on it and inside is a very sweet note! I loved it. Then, she sent a big Hershey's Kiss (ate it so fast my head spun!) :laugh: and to top it off--she also sent a really sweet Ty beanie baby called Fairy Dust! I had never seen this one before. I love it. My daughter wants to take it away from me. I said...no way! It's right here now next to my computer to bring me luck! I will be on the lookout when I shop, I would love to buy some for people to spread the fairy dust luck!
Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness! Big hugs back at ya! xxoo Grace

I was going through so much I never had the chance to say thanks, I truly appreciate it. I did pm her recently and thank her, but wanted to say it publicly. It was a nice surprise during a very tough time. :hugs: to you you wonderful, sweet lady

Thank you so very much for the wonderful package that arrived here Thursday 2/1 - what a terrific start to the month :jump:
It was perfect timing - I came home from work early due to a migraine from a yucky announcement at work today and Saw the Big Box with my name and hearts on it .
My dad was like What did you get?? he was just as excited to watch me open it and still amazed at how much this online group is such an extension of friendship in a wonderful way.
Well after opening the box (- dad showed me where the rip strip was - :laugh: )
in side was a wrapped package and card
I received a very sweet valentine card and a wonderful Special Dates book that holds cards
Vicky - you must have been peaking in my drawers - I bought one from the Company Current about 25 years ago - don't even know if they are still in business and it is tattered and full of my previous life dates (ex-DH & family) - LOL
This will totally be put to use starting tomorrow and get all the Brat family special dates into it. Although my mom opened it up and pointed I MUST put June 30th down for HER birthday - I said NO my birthday is First and MY Anniversary is July 1st....yours is December ....... we had a fun time with the "dates competition"
This was a total surprise and I am delighted by the thougtfulness you put into it
THANK YOU again..................((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))) Kathleen :gvibes:

The package contained an adorable little Fairydust Beenie Baby, a heart shaped box of chocolates, a beautiful card and a bag of Valentine's candies including those fun little candies with the sayings on them. I am so very happy and blessed to be part of OLS! Thank you Barbara...you rock girl!!!

The Furbaby Valentine is now taped to my monitor

Okay y'all have me crying today........... In a good way :gvibes:
This has turned into such a positive thing in such a short time
I am enjoying getting to know real names and new cities and places we are all from - each of you are so special
The emails and e-cards have been so enjoyable and positive and it's a nice change to non-winning spam :laugh:
Today the mail man brought me two surprises that had me with goosebumps and my jaw dropped. My folks called me up to get my mail .................... they laugh on days I get more than them. They know what you all mean to me - and words will never show it enough.
Gracepap...................Miss Grace in NY Sent me a Valentine Greeting of a cupcake head laday - my gawd so funny............... I was tickled at the picture. And then inside was a book of stamps - that have HERSHEY KISSES as the picture.............Ssssssssooooooooooooooo adorable
Blopatin.................. Miss Barbara in DE I am in love with the FairyDust Ty Baby Bear you sent me.......... When I saw about these I was wondering how I would find me one and you beat me to having to hunt one down. The card with the roses is beautiful reminds me of vintage valentines and the heart box of chocolates...... I shared those with the folks.
I have been "hearted" plenty and I hope that the love continues all over the list.

We saw the lighthouse and I got a few pic's, but we saw it from a short distance, we didn't go in. I wanted to visit the Fountain of Youth, so we arrive get thhe kids in the strollers and go to the front desk, only to find that they accept cash only and I only carry like 10.00. I always use my credit cards. So we are going to go next time, my sister lives there. We did visit the shopping area downtown and had a wonderful time. The parks and the shopping area in an Old Town feeling with narrow streets and lots of steeples. Beautiful City with lots to see.

I still love it though and the brownie recipe is intact so we're good to go! :laugh: This was so sweet on so many levels, thank you Grace, you're great :toot:
You're welcome. Glad the recipe was still there. :laugh:

I got a cute little Valentine from KathBrat today. It had a Laffy Taffy. It was so funny because when I go on road trips, I ALWAYS stop at a convenience store and get Laffy Taffy candies! But of course my daughter stole it from me as soon as she saw it! LOL
Thanks!!
P.S. I sent a couple of gifts out to people I met on the Campbell's Aventure Cruise. So be on the lookout. One of you have already received it (it was nice talking to you again, Crystal) and the other person should be receiving it by tomorrow as told by the post office.
This is so fun!!!

Whew............. I "think" I am caught up now
Thank you Shirley/phredj for the Sweet Snail Mail V-Day Card.............. The folks were like - More of your sweepstakes friends? I said YUP!!!! :razz:
For those that haven't figured it out yet - I live with my folks right now to assist with their home needs. My hubby is in our home in Oklahoma AND I am SOOOOOOOOOOO Excited he will be here for three weeks March 27th - April 17th - as it's his time to do the spring cleaning on the folk's yard. For those that know about all my furbabies - we have already lined up the babysitter to ensure all seven are well taken care of........ okay - I will stop rambling.
I guess what I am saying is even when you don't know it - you are cheering up my folks as well - when they see me smiling and having fun.
E-Cards
Heather & Paula - thank you thank you
The PM's were many and some from this list and some from general
and the box was overflowing........so Thank you all for thinking of me.
I am looking foward to more snails in everyone's mails and all the good stuff that the next days hold.
What is it that they say about March - In like a lion and out like a lamb - and then the beautiful daffodils.
Make it a wonderful day!!!!
