do they have to be working? Cause if not I can send you some, my husband and my grandmother are what i like to call "pen thief" if it is a pen on the counter it is free game for them.

Preferably working, as the final destination is to be the fire station in the pen stash for report writing and such! A few duds will certainly get through!
Alicia and Betty - hubby picked up your two packages yesterday at the mail.
I need to do another count and see what the total is!
Do what you love, love what you do. |

Angie,
I have collected 126 so far!!! This has been so much fun! Hoping to mail them off to you Saturday morning. Oh, I'd love to have 200 to send!
I do have a concern tho...I mailed a quilt I made for Quilts for Kids on 3/24, via the US Post Office flat rate box. It has yet to arrive to the Quilts for Kids address. My concern is that is lying somewhere in a torn up box. :-( Guess I'll give the P.O. another chance, hopefully the pens will get to you.
Ya'll have a great day! Shelia

I just hit up my stash and only found one pen! What's with that? I swear I had all kinds of logo pens at one point! We always seem to take them from hotels and oil change places and dentist offices...where have they all gone? I'll keep looking and see if I can find some with friends and family - maybe I can get up to 10!

Karen Got your big bag'o pens! I will be working on your barter items to get them in the mail this week.
last count was 224, now it's certainly over 250! I will admit, there are a few pens that are not going to make it to the fire station... too nice to give away!!!
Do what you love, love what you do. |

Angie, I'm not having much luck in getting the pens from my daughter. She said she had a big bag but she is in the process of moving and thinks they may have been donated to the local thrift store. Oops. She'll still try to round some up at work but right now it isn't looking good. So sorry but hope you win anyway. Maybe I should go try to buy them from the store she donated them to :) but I think a lot of what gets donated goes to third world countries and especially supplies that can be used in schools. Best of luck with your contest!

Angie, the scrubber and dishcloth arrived safe and sound in Nevada. Thank you! The scrubbie is cool, and I just threw my old one away. It was well used! I've started another collection for you :)

Hi, Angie! I sent out an envelope of pens last week. Hope you got them! If nothing else,I got some strange looks from the postmaster! I just gently explained that there wasn't much he could put past us farmgirls, then grinned about it all the way home!

Angie Please forgive the delay in my great BIG thank you. I have started a short term job at a local nursery and I am there ALOT!!!! I got your package last Thursday (I think) and it was such a lovely surprise. Thank you so very much for the lovely scrubbies and tote (love the pocket). Both are wonderful and so beautifully done. I am going to share a scrubbie with my friend who collected up all the farm related pens. I am sure she will be surprised and pleased as well. Thank you again :-) Take Care - Karen

Let us know if you still need pens. I'll send some out if you do!
We seem to breed pens around here . . .
