PattyJo Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Well, I wasn\'t able to spend anytime sitting on my curb waiting for the Mailman to arrive, but I checked the mail when I got home and still no UP. Do they send this out alphabetically?"?? I\'m sure glad my name isn\'t Zelda Zimmerman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawn Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Still no magazine for me!! Why does it take so long? They were supposed to be shipping April 28th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 You know, it\'s the bulk mailing thing. When we used bulk mailing at the church I worked for, the post office said that it can take 4-6 weeks. I usually doesn\'t, but it could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Wow I did not know they were sent bulk mail. My mail is so bad I may never get it. HA HA. From what I read it is well worth the wait. This is a new subscription for me so I am very anxiously awaiting the magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmyhogan Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Very Nice article Mary Beth. It is good to read about experiences with a good outcome and people being generous and supportive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyJo Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Mary Beth - You know the only, and I mean only way that Bill and I have gotten thru this last year is with laughter, We made a pact about it. If you think it\'s funny, we have to tell each other, so that we can both laugh. I would hate to spend all the time crying and being depressed. God doesn\'t want that. He wants us to be joyful even thru the tough times. So go ahead, call me Zelda - I can take it!!!!

Bonnie Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Zelda...it\'s so good to meet you....but I have to say you do look like someone we all love very much...and her name is Patty Jo. Are you her twin sister that she has kept in the closet all these years now to be let out only after she was totally bribed with chocolate. Whomever you are...we are glad that you have come to spend some time with us....and tell your alter person...(ego sounded to rude ) that we love her as well.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattyJo Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Hello, this is Zelda again. Patty Jo is having a pity party with Job (the guy in the bible) this morning and they are comizerating with each other, so I stepped in for her while they try and get their feet back under them. YOU GUYS ARE THE GREATEST. You never know there may be another person in here as well but for now, it is just Patty Jo and me, Zelda....

seakitten Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 I can\'t believe it. My magazine came yesterday, and I AM at the end of the alphabet, and still waiting for my May National Geographic. Anyway, a wonderful story, Mary Beth. I joined the group just about the time Haylee was born, so did not experience the earlier trauma, only the joyful conclusion, but I pretty much got the drift of what had happened, so it was good to hear the whole story. Yes, this is an incredible group of people, and we are here for you also Patty Jo (& Zelda). All us Aunties feel like we\'re a part of this, so thanks for telling our story, Mary Beth.

nineva Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 And everyone KNOWS that Zelda was the GOOD witch of the North , beautiful and gracious so Patty Jo, you are hereby knighted as Zelda. You are such a nice and generous person. You tell Patty Jo to go on and commiserate. She deserves a few minutes of that. She\'ll be alright soon. P.S. Tell her we all love her.:cool::cool: Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginnysnowden Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 OK I can top all your stories. I subscribed to UP and got my first mailing in good order, and it was the January 2008. Guess my subscription will be from the beginnyng of the year. I love it but, I was so anxious to see the surprise in the current issue. Bummed. PS do not let any more info out until later OK. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bekah Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Great aritcle Mary Beth. Waiting for an updated picture. Our little niece must be getting pretty big by now. Zelda, you tell Patty Jo that she can take some time off to commiserate with Job. We love her and her Bill and will keep them covered in prayer. I like the fact that you are the good fairy from the land of Oz. will we get to see a picture of you in your tiara and wings? You know we who know and love you have to laugh right along with you so if we get silly sometimes, please know the laughter covers our tears.

cmoore1223 Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 I\'m with you in spirit PattyJo. Know that you have my prayers and thoughts for the best outcome. Zelda, the good witch will win out!! Coleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyJo Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Thanks Bekah & Coleen - I\'m doing some better today, just had a few bumps in the road. My kids used to call me a witch under their breath but I don\'t think the word "good" came before it!! LOL . Bill goes in to see 2 of his doctors on Thursday, so we will know more then. I was suppose to be working in the Spring Market Show this next week in Portland. I was to have been at the StenSource booth. For those of you who are going, please go and say hi to Bonnie for me. She is a sweetheart, me having to bail at the last moment like this, and don\'t forget to spend $$ to help support her booth. Thanks to all of you.
