    son of a gun!! the first time I posted, a page came up saying there was a problem. Tried resubmitting and it said there already was a duplicate. I come back and no sign of my first comment, so I post again. THEN the first one shows up! sheesh

    helloooooooo elloooooooo loooooo ooooo

    quite an echo in here! where is everyone? whatcha’ doin’?

    CONTEST

    I’m switching out handbags and shoes. Packed up a box of ones I won’t be using; then started looking at all the handbags left out for this season and decided to count them. 😳

    anyone to guess the exact number will win a pet code; coming close to the number will win…something.

    hint: the number falls in the *needs an intervention* range, imho

    gramma we might have to play higher or lower …

    needs an intervention would be 32???

    funny you mention bags b/c i’m trying to figure out a great way to “store” my bags so that they are easy to see, accessible, but i have a specific closet where I want them & the build in shelves are full … some can hang, some can’t, so i’m thinking a looooong board with towel hooks and a shelf along the top????

  6. momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 1:42 pm

    for some people – a bag intervention wouldn’t hit until 3 figures or more πŸ˜‰

  7. momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 1:45 pm

    the webkinz closet would be a good place for bags, but then i would have to do something with the Webkinz …

    it’s downright shameful …

  8. momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 1:48 pm

    you know what would be cool – wonder if i could find old door knobs or drawer pulls from someone who has renovated or something??? that could be a neat way to hang them …

    OH! well then I’m close to needing an intervention. WHEW! I feel better. πŸ˜€ ‘course, those aren’t all of them; just the ones for now. lol

    LOVE your doorknob idea!!!!! remember Aunt Clara on Bewitched and her doorknob collection? bet she could help you out. πŸ˜‰

    Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to our Canadian friends!

    I must be in sync with dee, sniffling a lot this morning. Hoping it’s mostly allergy from being outside all weekend. My hon & I drove to Tahoe (I should’ve looked at gas prices before going, cheapest we found was $4.39 and most were close to $5).

    Aww, bags and shoes are accessories; we should be allowed to have more than a few. I’m gonna guess you have around 25 for the season, gramma.

  12. 12 gramma said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 2:31 pm

    Hi Zingy!! sorry ’bout your sniffles; feel better soon. Your guess is low.

    today is the last day of meds for my pneumonia. Luckily I called dr almost the minute I went down sick, so I should be good. The meds have been hateful, but pneumonia is worse.

  13. 13 Zingyginger (Isla4577) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 2:47 pm

    Thanks, gramma!

    Just a mild headache and congestion so far, no temps. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

    Ah, you really meant intervention, lol. How’s 75?

    So I’m glad you got your meds asap. Pneumonia’s the pits!

    October 8, 2012 @ 3:15 pm

    So not a museum sized collection of bags yet?

    How ’bout 30 (only coz it’s a nice even number)?

    My hon’s sister dropped her camera and damaged her memory card this weekend. Apparently, she’s never backed up her pics ever and now we’re not sure if she’ll get it back as she hasn’t found anything that would read the card.

    So now I’m sync’ing my iphone pics to the apple cloud in case something happens to the phone.

    not sure if this was mentioned before but sometime over the weekend, dawnscott1 solved the Busy Artist Smock

    pink polka dot rain boots
    purple beanie
    yellow raincoat

    now that it’s solved, i can get ’em off my dock.

    also, if you’re considering geting a build a haunted castle and want to purchase the bundle (only way to get the pumpkin launcher), if you buy a total of 10 items, it’s automatically 40% off for the lot

    anything that is over or under 10 items, you pay regular price

    October 8, 2012 @ 4:21 pm

    anyone else a wee bit apprehensive about ganz changing the ww map into something like wf?

    it looks pretty but wf takes an eternity to load on anything but the fastest computers. on the netbook at one time, it timed out before it could load the program.

    this is where i wish they would listen and fix stuff first (like moveable/removeable doors, more naming options, mail organized by date like we had before, etc) before adding more.

  25. 25 zingyginger said,

    I totally agree, zingy, I am not sure that will be a good thing, I rarely do WF on facebook since it takes so long to load and move around. TailTownsFriends is faster but soooo slow to move up in levels and I find it close to boring though the pixel thingys are pretty

  28. 28 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 4:47 pm

    what a dingbat! i am putting these in an extra closet that has plenty of hanging space left – i could just hang them on shower hooks!

  29. 29 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 4:49 pm

    i might “have to” do some vintage door knobs, though, and hang the one i’m using in the mud room b/c that idea seems to pretty to waste πŸ˜€

    did anyone have the answer to me contest-style question… the other day.. yesterday? not sure, lol

    congrats Zingy!!

    vintage door knobs awesome idea, momsk, I LOVE them! For my house I bought glass door knobs, like vintage style and then had a time finding a door they would work on but as a hanger that would be super cute!

    October 8, 2012 @ 7:37 pm

    29! that’s a lot!!!!! 😯

    this is like confession sometimes!

    i don’t want to hang the purses – i want to hang them from drawer pulls or knobs or something along the other wall, so that’s what i’m going for …

  34. 34 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 7:40 pm

    oh, except i found a rack that i like where i could hang the big ones, and it has a shelf space above for the clutches …

  35. 35 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 8, 2012 @ 7:41 pm

    krafty – i definitely want some glass knobs like that – i’m going to troll some antique stores around and see if i can afford πŸ˜•

    Are y’all having a challenging time finding newly released webbies?

  44. 44 gramma said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 4:11 am

    morning, Krafty!! nice to find you here πŸ™‚

    number of stores carrying limited number of webkinz and new releases are all declining. Thinking before long, I’ll have to be ordering the ones I want; and be rather selective about those choices. πŸ™

  45. 45 gramma said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 4:15 am

    btw, I googled your quote from the other day. Probably should have known the answer without looking, but it’s been a looooong time since I heard it. don’t know if anyone else commented about it.

  46. 46 gramma said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 6:12 am

    is it actually the ‘map’ that is the big change coming??? what do we care about the map when there are tons of other things that need fixing??? bah ganz!

  47. 47 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 7:43 am

    gramma – i had hoped the construction thing was going to allow us to do construction on our rooms – move doors, etc.

    i’m losing hope …

    when dh is gone, i need to check to see if i have a stud in a certain spot to put one of those curtain holds to hold whatever purse i am currently using πŸ™‚

    i decided this morning that i don’t have time right now to chase down my other ideas, so i think i’m going to clean off a closet shelf for the bags for now & keep it simple – i have ‘real’ errands to do and probably shouldn’t spend time on that right now πŸ™„ <- that's me rolling my eyes at being practical .... lol

  48. 48 dee said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:02 am

    whaaat?
    I log in and see that moms is going looking for a stud when her dh leaves?

    what have you all been up to?

  49. 49 gramma said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:09 am

    hey dee! I’ve been looking around my house for a spot to put a purdy door knob. moms got me thinking I ‘need’ a door knob. :-/

  50. 50 gramma said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:13 am

    moms, I too was soooooo hoping the ‘construction’ was going to be the door issue. Been putting off all the construction needed on BLG. Projects would be a piece of cake if doors could be removed. πŸ˜₯

    also, I gotz codes for 10 pairs of estore shoes that won’t work AND the candle thing back from the Chinese New Year is still stuck in the dock. πŸ™„ *stomps foot hard*

    they have lots and lots of flea markets here…at the Nashville Flea market (which is at the state fair grounds) there are a actually a couple of buildings that is all they sell!

  52. 52 dee said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:29 am

    i wonder about the mounting of the doorknob tho….granted if it is hold something light….might be easier to put them all on a board (decorated of course) and then hang that…..less holes in your real wall too!

  53. 53 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:40 am

    dee – yes, if i do multiple knobs, they will be on a board – then hang the board

    i’m thinking one knob downstairs for hanging my bag tho just to make me πŸ˜€ for now

  54. 54 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:41 am

    i’d love a piece of weathered barn wood for knobs

    see why i need to back off this great idea for now??? πŸ™‚

  55. 55 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:43 am

    then i started thinking i might do the knobs in my closet for scarves, bags, etc. b/c it would be pretty

    in the closet i was thinking for the bags, it can be functional – like a bar with hooks hanging on it to hang the bags

  56. 56 dee said,

    October 9, 2012 @ 8:54 am

    also someone asked about the sapphire gem lamp

    there were so many click to wins september that they never released it. they also never got around to releasing the navy school girl uniform.

    frankly, between tail towns, webkinz friends, amazing world and nakamas, i suspect ganz is getting spread too thin that they can’t even keep up with what’s already programmed.
