Default I need some ASK experts for identification ...

Is this passionate pink? I have it marked as such, but I want to be sure before I post it on the website (for the raffles).

Thanks!!

Yep, it's just a sharpie. I use a silver sharpie on the darker rods (like black and such). It makes it a lot easier since I don't have to worry about rubber bands, tape, labels, etc., etc. Plus, when I get down to the shorts, the glass is already labelled, so I know what I'm running out of.

Hope to help!

Well, it's posted in the raffles now for whoever's interested. I'm not playing with it (I'm too scared), so it might as well go to a home where it will be used and loved.

Ummm... What raffles? Sorry! Haven't been here much.

(Been actually wanting to post a very depressing, ranting, upset, rambling, just plain "lost" thread but haven't even done that. Not up to it? Or just don't have the friggin time?!?!) So I've been avoiding this place a little.)

Wow. Sorry. I SO shouldn't have posted that but can't bring myself to delete it. A bit of therapy I guess. Anyway, not hijacking!! Don't really want to discuss anything right this minute. Just wondering about the raffles. and apparently I need to stop posting, LOL!

ARGH! Ok. Done. Thanks!

Go ahead, post that very depressing, ranting, upset, rambling, just plain "lost" thread you'll be amazed what people can do for you to help, and it might make you feel better

I bought one and a few others also. It isn't much but I hope it helps in some way.

I also want to give a special shout out to Nikki, who contacted me last night and gifted the raffles with two of her fabulous beads (an alien and a sheep) that the winner will get to choose the color scheme for. Here's a link to the raffle page, Nikki's beads are the first two posted: Raffles

Thanks again everyone - I really appreciate it!

I had another thought too ... some people have sent me PMs stating that they can't participate in the raffles, but wanted to let Trevor know that they were thinking of him ... if you can, please send him a post card from your area - he has a map hanging up in his room and he could put a thumb tack from every area that he received a postcard from. It gives him something visual to look at whenever he thinks about all the people out there that care about him. If you want to send one, just PM me and I'll give you our address.

Thanks!!

And yes, I was wrong - Shawn was the first to buy a passionate pink raffle ticket (I thought it was Kandice), but Shawn's ticket was hiding behind the Ziploc logo in the bag. Oops. Now Shawn's ticket has Kandice's ticket to keep it company.

Sorry about that.

Sorry about that.
I couldn't be in better company.

At Kandice.

I can't believe people are going to let us two get away with this that easy.

Kandice and Shawn now have company for the Passionate Pink.

Here's the update:

All of the tickets for Ginny's bracelet have been purchased - so Trevor is going to draw the name of the winner before he goes to bed (in about 20 minutes).

The "Denim Dreams" bracelet by Liz DeLuca will be ending tomorrow night (Sunday) at 10:30 ... there are still 11 tickets available for that. Seriously, there are only 5 tickets in the bag for that one ...

The Maria Grimes tray and spreader set has only ONE ticket in the bag!?! OMG! That's an easy win for someone.

So, that's my update. Oh, and I also heard from Helen (who made the gorgeous rose ring that was raffled) ... she's going to donate some Amber Rose for the raffles too. Be on the lookout for that. Yay Helen!

Okay ... another 15 minutes and the winner for Liz's bracelet will be chosen. There's still lots of tickets available if anyone's interested in a last minute chance.
