Secret Santa 2009

1.6k · October 27, 2009

I have renewed my account at www.geocoincollection.com so it should be up to date.

The kids doesn´t have an account of their own so I keep the coins with attached info from whom they were gifted and the kids get the stuff.

Much info about us can be found in our gallery at our GC.COM profile. Or at facebook if I am a friend of my sender there.

I did send some info with the sign up email so I hope that will be attached to the ones that will send to us.

But again, it is the thought that matters. We will be very happy for what ever gifted to us.

Ahhh..snow...I just hope it holds off here until i'm finished my field work and back from vacation in Ottawa. We're still trapping invasive crabs in Basin Head, PEI and then i'm off to Ottawa towards the end of November for a week

And then.... It's ALMOST CHRISTAMS

I've finally done something with the link in my signature. There's a seeking list but, tis in no way complete. I'm sure there's more coins out there that I don' know 'bout. And I will be working on sorting it over the next couple weeks to have the most wanted coins towards the top of the list. I love shaped coins and coins with moving parts. hehe

Can't wait to get started! I heard the other day that WM has already started putting out Christmas stuff. lol

Edit: I have a hamster. LOL (Since everyone's including pets. ) She's about a year old now. Her name tis Timmain. hehe

Edited October 31, 2009 by Howlingmoon

October 31, 2009

I cant believe i am getting a seeking list going.

I have been trying to do this for way over a year.

It is so far from being complete but i have started.

I need to add one more to the mission from my family.

My 20 year old daughter (River Dancer) has a cat.

This is going to be fun but surely not easy.

I wrote a novel of useful stuff in the email. Hopefully our missionhost will pass it on.

If not, here is some info. I keep the coins and the kids get the stuff. I collect animalshaped coins and food/ beveageshaped coins. I treasure all coins gifted to me, no matter what shape or design. I even treasure those "fake geocoins" or what to call them.

Thanks again, let the fun begin.

My seeking list is in my signature line, but I love coins so I don't mind if you send me something else!

I love cats and dragonflies. Well, all animals really. I'm really into photography, video games and almost any craft. I love traveling, especially to national parks! For that tshirt question, XL for me. Oh and I have no favorite color, they all are beautiful.

I sure hope that helps! If you want specifics, ask gillianms, she's got the inside track. (And likewise, I can answer any questions about gillianms :rolleyes: )

OK, Ok, i have some extra info on a few people, that i forgot to send out with the missions. The spread sheet that I was using to email out the names had that column clipped off. I will try to send out some more individual emails on people that I have more info.

But... there are quite a few new people and friends that either don't have a seperate GC.com account or don't have much info about themselves on their profile. Please post a little about yourself, or if you don't want to do that, you can email it to me and I will pass it along.

If you are really stuck and want to ask your person a specific question. I might be able to help, but I do not make any guarantees.

Also on final thing, if any one is willing to switch missions, i have one person with an international mission that requested a switch because they have had the same person in previous exchanges.

Thank You to everyone who has participated.

Please make sure to mail your packages with plenty of time to get there by Christmas. This is especially important for international missions.
