Re: Schedule Change (Please Read!)

Sounds good to me.  I have a huge portfolio due January 5th, so I was wondering how I was going to fit in reading the first part with getting my portfolio done.  This works out perfectly, especially with the holidays as well.

It's perfect for me too Paul since I have vacation that first week of Jan and wouldn't be able to participate as much as I like to.

Thanks for the update.  No problem, I've been caught up over in romantic reads with the sneak peek.

Thanks for keeping us posted. I marked my calendar to the new dates.  With the holidays it is probably better for most people anyway.

I was wondering the same thing as Patti since I'll be out of town starting next week - I don't want to miss the book.

Awe geeze. I'll get mine at least a week later. Dang. :/ Mine has to be shipped to my aunt's, who is in Utah, and I'm in Arizona. I'll be seeing her for Christmas. What a shame. Oh well. I'll patiently wait. :smileyvery-happy: I'm just excited to get my hands on the book! xD Gotta love 15 year olds who love reading!

Re: Schedule Change (Please Read!)

Thanks so much for the updates.  This schedule will work out better for me too, with the holidays and all.  This is my first First Look experience and I'm very excited about it.  :-)

Thanks, Paul, for letting us know about the schedule change and also when the books will arrive. I'd like to get started on the book before the discussions start.

Hi, vermontcozy, did you get any snow up your way. We didn't get any here in Charlotte, but we did get a little bit of freezing rain overnight which caused headaches for shoppers.

Re: Schedule Change (Please Read!)

Thanks, vtc.... I've done all my shopping and I'm ready to cook for Christmas. Having our daughter and son-in-law over, no kids. They have 3 cats that are their kids. However, the roads were slick yesterday morning as we fishtailed a bit getting to a Christmas breakfast at 8AM. Sorry you missed out on the storm, but it would have created problems driving and such.

No problem - just when it's over for everyone else, us First Looker's still have a gift on the way.
