Posted - May 09 2005 : 11:27:56 AM Finally got the magazine! My husband had picked up the mail at the PO and ...well, let's just say it took a day longer. But it's here! And it's wonderful! I do a strange read from front to back, then back to front; it's good in both directions :) Now, to wait for the Farmgirl Kit....Enjoy, farmgirls! Sharon |

Posted - May 08 2005 : 03:54:18 AM Oh...It is just beautiful! More-much more than I ever expected. This place, you people, MaryJane, staff, the magazine...all just godsends! I feel so connected here even if I only get to venture in so seldomly...hoping that will change! I want to get to know you all much better! But homeschooling, gardening, and soap business are just now allowing me any free time. And since my dad passed in November I have had so much to do for Mom. Who knew there would be so much "stuff" to take care of after someone's passing?? Nothing has been cut and dried...we have had twists and turns now for 5 months! But I have learned a lot! And that's what most everything is about, isn't it?
Thanks for sharing your lives! All of you...not just thru the magazine, but here as well.
Blessings to you all!

Posted - May 06 2005 : 8:28:27 PM Oh, you are all so WONDERFUL !!! I am just headed off to bed and hadn't read your responses to your No Place Like Home Topic. Your support brings tears to my eyes! The magazine is what it is because we have such amazing farmgirl readers (and contributors)! Thank you all so much!
Much love,
Meg ps. If you haven't received your mag yet, we only received a few intial boxes from the printer and promptly sent them all out to as many farmgirls as we could (I am hoping to get my official copy tomorrow). We will receive many more very soon! Have a marvelous weekend!![](icons/icon_smile.gif) |

Posted - May 06 2005 : 6:33:58 PM Hi all, just got my copy yesterday and read it a couple of times already. Great issue. I was surprised to see it, because I just sent in a small order for Mary Jane's book, etc. and ordered the previous copy, which I didn't get earlier. What a great surprise. Still waiting for my Farmgirl chapter stuff.

Posted - May 05 2005 : 12:47:48 PM Yahoo!!!!! The mail cooperated today and I had a present in my mailbox!!! Nicely put into a brown envelope so the cover would stay beautiful.
The magazine is beautiful too. The cover photo is so symbolic of MaryJanes road home! I just finished my first read-through and I know I have many more to come. I still read and read the previous issues!
This new one is so beautiful - each issue of MJF just builds on the previous to complete and embellish the whole way of life we all love so much - and in that way of living there is no place like home for all of us.
Love it! Thank you! jpbluesky

Posted - May 04 2005 : 2:27:51 PM By the way, you'll love it!! I already hung the calender on my fridge. It shows a lot of neat events around the country this summer. And MJ's book tour! There is also something planned called a farmgirl campover the 3rd of July. Sounds pretty exciting. I may have to save to buy a ticket to Idaho this summer! How 'bout the rest of you? A farmgirl reunion!!!![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif) ![](icons/icon_smile_wink.gif)

Posted - May 04 2005 : 11:51:50 AM Still waiting too! Even called the Borders where I first found MaryJanes Farm mags, and no luck there either. I hope my subscription has not expired....but I will get the new issue one way or the other, sooner or later. Patience, I keep telling myself! jpbluesky

Posted - May 02 2005 : 9:39:03 PM My mailbox held treasure tonight! Very fine edition of the magalog! It's especially nice to see very familiar names as contributors. As always, it's quite an anticipated comfort when the latest edition arrives. Good job!
