Envie Addicts Unite! September

[TrinaLD]

Mel, if I understand you correctly I will send my envie to Wildholly because she is the first name after mine??

LindyLu, Jezebbelle's correct. The Postcard List is separate from the Envie List. Yes, it looks like you'll send to the person listed after. I couldn't find the list because my eyes are burned out from all of this heat. The EAU swap will be a bit different this month. Fun.

The partner's list for Envie's is on the home page in it's usual spot. You'll understand the madness if you see it there. The Halloween postcards have 8 people playing...so you make 7 postcards. I sent an address list to all of those that are playing in the postcards (I sent it twice, because I forgot to put my address!)

Mel, is this correct? I just saw it and copied it - 7 envie people so send to the person below our name?

"
Ok, both the swap sign ups are closed. We have 8 people playing in the postcard swap. You make 7 postcards. The Envies are odd numbered, so I will have you each hand an Envie over to the next person. (Don't know if there's a term used for that method, but that's what we're doing.)"

Thank you, Mel. I think my eyes are burned out from the heat.

[kwailin777]

No worries friends...it's new...and will take time to get used to all of our new ways of doing stuff.

[kwailin777]

Speaking of heat, I can't wait for the weekend where our heatwave is suppose to end!!

If there are anymore questions please don't hesitate to post it...it's likely someone else is wondering the same thing.

So my partner for this month is Trina? Yes? No?

Hot, lol it has been between 100 to 108 for over 3 months here. There are days it feels like you stuck your head in the oven. It just finally cool down, we are now in the 90s.

[kwailin777]

Yep, you got it girlfriend Trina is your partner

Glad to see things moving along smoothly here. I am finally enjoying the delicious fall like weather we are having for at least a week! Went back on my morning and evening walks. I don't think I told ya'll what I have been up to. I started converting over to a some what Keto diet. I cut out sugar and carbs. (I'm part asian, so rice was sorta a tuff one to get rid of LOL!) I also change a lot of my ingredients to cleaner and more humanely raised food. I know i'm sounding like a hippy right now! I would hear of other people caring about organic and ethically raised animals and think that they were just fancy peeps! Now i slowly changed a few things to be more healthy and it sorta snowballed to why some of these things are so important. I started my walking four months ago. My goal was to lose weight, but it has changed so much more. I lost 14 pounds! (So hard earned...it's slow going) However, I don't feel so sluggish and I feel more agile. My backyard over the years has become a blank dust bowl! But now I have enough energy again to work in it. I've been adding plants and just got a new fountain...been putting up lights. It's been fun. My lil oasis is starting to come about.

I start talking about good weather and then you got all of that out of me! LOL! What every ones else up to?

Mel, thanks for sharing. This is great on so many levels, and very inspiring.

Today and yesterday, it seems the humidity is temporarily gone. I love it- I can pick my zinnias and do outside garden stuff which I love. The sky is just clear blue and all is well here in my world. 79- 80 degrees and no humidity--wowza!

Just finished the last of the Halloween cards and I will put them in the mail tomorrow... maybe a bit early but Dutch mail is unreliable at the moment and I'd rather have them arriving sooner than later.

[wildholly]

Finished my Halloween cards today.

Here is a group photo.
