Thanks Terry. Looking forward to another great year raising funds for the kids. :thumbsup:
This is gonna be a good year for the kids!!! :campfire:
Hey Terry when I clicked the banner it says I'm not logged in but I am logged in for the rest of the site. Email sent.
Hmm, I'm sure I can dig up some items for the auction. Thanks all for doing this auction!
Tim...its not the same site....so log in.
Most-excellent Mr. Green!
Shoot straight, Shinken
:archer2:
COOL!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
The other day I was planning a unit of work for my grade 7 science students, and there was a feature in their Science Edge 1 workbook about the big boss of St Jude's, who happens (or happened) to be an Aussie... Just a cool incidental at work, I thought.
TTT for those who missed it.
Well i hear another ST Jude is coming awesome! :scared: :readit: :biglaugh: I am bouncing off walls! :jumper: :jumper: :jumper:
some great stuff already. let's fill er up
Ah-ha, I live for the fun of this auction, and the great good it does, although I get more and more less active each year (is that an oxymoron - or just bad English - LOL). Anyway, I am tickled it is time again to do our level best, each in their own ways, for the blessed children of St. Jude Research Hospital with our "little" annual auction. Of course, as usual it has snuck up on me and (thanks to Don Batten's call to arms to me this evening), I now know that I must get busy and catch up with getting my tub of little goodies out, get pictures taken and ready, and then get my offers posted (I just added about three more to them this weekend.
One note that may not be so welcome to some of our bidders/friends: my dear wife Rose has had a bad year with her thumb, wrists and elbows and has (as far as it stands now) not been able to complete any of her beautiful afghans for this year. she tried to do at least a baby one but I don't believe she has even been able to accomplish that. She is, in all other ways, fine, as am I (Thank you, Lord), but the aging process is taking it's toll in our joints and muscles. We still pledge to do the best we can - and I, in addition, to harass everyone endlessly and mercilessly - :goldtooth:
Let's all have a ball, get more members into the auction and raise lots of research funds for the children of St. Jude. Bless you all, bless us all.
I am sorry to hear of Rose's difficulty. She has done way more than her share in providing beautiful items to be won by lucky bidders. I wish her well, and hope that her joints improve. There can be no improving of the generosity of her heart.
I treasure my Afghans, and the baby ones that I sent to ApplePie's twins were darling.
Now... let the games begin!
Killdeer :clapper:
Ditto what Killdeer said. I pray that Rose improves. I very much treasure my afghan that she created.
Looks like it is gonna be another great auction!
>>>>>----::-------------->>
This is always a special time. And I'm going to have to hurry to get a knife made for this year.
Thank you so much Killie, and Ron. I let Rose read your posts, and she was very pleased about your sentiments, as am I.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaawwwwww
What's this doing on P3???
I guess with that big ole Yellar Banner up top its not needed, but a bump for fun anyway!
There's some great suff posted all ready.... This one is just tooooooo CooooooL!!!!!

Well, I finally got around (yesterday) to taking my pictures of the items we will put up this year. Today I am finishing up editing them and will shortly upload to PhotoBucket. Then I can start listing the items. I might get done one of these days yet - LOL. As I said earlier, Rose will not be able to favor our efforts with afghans but she has given me a number of Costume jewelry items that folks give her, etc. but she wears very little jewelry (except elephants and holiday items - LOL). So hopefully those will add to our family efforts to increase the totals offered/raised. Also we will, as usual be putting up things most anyone who has a low budget may/should be able to get into the action on. Remember, if we all do what we can and stay aware that every little bit helps then all our efforts will count. :clapper:
Oh, and maybe I won't make more than the 1.000 or so mistakes that i usually make in my listings - :goldtooth:
Tell Rose to worry about getting better....she did WAY more than her part in the past. Her stuff was the best!!!
Thank you so much, Terry, I'll pass that on to her. Actually she is doing well but her wrist just won't stand up to the needle work (and some other things she's always been able to do - drives her nuts though).
Well, i at least got started listing my offers anyway (got nine done) before it got close to supper time - LOL. Shoot I may still be here on the 20th at this rate - naw, it'll go faster now that i have my memory back in gear on how to do it (I think) - :D
Where do you go to bid on the auction items? I may have missed it.
Big yellow banner at the top of the Pow Wow.
Bidding doesn't open until later in May. Go check out the cool stuff already listed!
Bidding opens 20 May (in the evening as I recall but check it out to be sure - sticky at the top of the list the yellow banner takes you to). Got interrupted on listing this evening and didn't get much further - will get back to it tomorrow afternoon (I hope).
Got a few more up this AM. With any luck, I might just finish this afternoon (after my nappy-poo - LOL). Boy, my eyes are tired (and my two typing fingers - :laughing:
TTT
I finally got finished - even posted one twice by accident - LOL - guess I was still tired, or tired again. Anyway, it's done. Now I can relax and wait for the 20th. :jumper:
Have you listed the ones you were thinking about offering yet? I'm just saying ............. :goldtooth:
I have a couple more items left to get posted. Hopefully I'll get it done before May 1st.
God bless,Mudd
That's the spirit, Mudd ol' boy! :thumbsup: Every single offer helps more than any one person may realize. It's all a game of numbers and the number "one" is the basis for all progress. :jumper:
