Default FAQs Long question~

And I have an EMPTY Yukon and now a Trail Blazer to help......and, boy
howdy, do I have the experience of packing. I will have to bring my
partner-in-crime tho--she's pretty good at labeling

Howdy!

Speaking of faqs, you may have answered this befo
"from GA for the moment"--- are you moving, Joan?
If so, we have some excellent stash packers here,
some will pack it into the trunk of their cars, some into the moving van,
some will just pack a little into a tote bag. But all are willing
and helpful. Just don't expect to find all your stash in your house
after you've moved. g

Cheers!

Sandy,
Thank you for your response, I did go to the rctq faq page, it was
extremely helpful. I know a lot of the chat related abbreviations but
the group ones, not so much! I am glad i know what S.E.X. is now,
apparently I have done that many times without realizing what I was
doing, I just knew it felt good!!!
I am still lost as to how to add a signature to my posting but will
continue to search out the answers.
Thanks again, Joan from GA for the moment

Default FAQs Long question~

Thank you for such a generous offer, it's nice to know what a wonderful
group you all are to offer your time and energy and large vehicles to
help me pack and move my stash!!! LOL!!
But, no, sorry to say I am not moving, the whole 'from ga for the
moment' is more an expression of discontent. I have lived in GA for 4
1/2 years, but it has felt like an eternity!!! I know GA is a fine
place to live for most, just not for me. These have been the most
stressful years of my life and I long for the day that I can move
geographically and mentally!! Although now that I have a sewing room
again (my fabric was in boxes for over 2 years) and I have been able to
hang out in my 'sanctuary', I feel better. I am still not sewing as
much as I need to but the family is slowly adjusting to me being
unavailable. If they would pay attention to the fact that I function
better after a long period of "sewingtation' or "medisewing", they
might just learn to leave me be when I am in the 'sanctuary'. Who
needs clean clothes & food when my stash needs attention!!!
I think this was more of a little rant than an answer because I feel
better!! Thanks!!

JustJoan- I'll leave it at that!

Default Directory question - need input


I have no way to use an Excel spreadsheet which is why I opt for the
text document instead.

You're in good company, Debra. Lots of others have the same issue so we are
glad to provide a variety of formats.

I think I'd prefer a Word document. PDf format would be my second choice.

Ok, I may be opening a Pandora's box with this posting, but I need to know
your preferred format of the Directory for the pending revision
.
The form that you will fill out dumps the data into a spreadsheet format
similar to Excel. I do some tweaking of the information and save it as a
spreadsheet. This format allows sorting of the columns for any number of
purposes. LN takes this data and also creates a two column word processing
document. This format does not allow for any sorting, but it can allow you
to create mailing labels if necessary.

So, given the above explanations and with the understanding that this
version of the Directory will be mostly done by me this time, what format is
preferred? I don't mind doing both, but I would really like to streamline
this process given the size the Directory has become, but I also want to
provide a Directory that is user friendly to, well, the users.

I realize that many of you are very computer literate and twist and turn the
Directory into a variety of formats once it is received, but these
variations of the Directory are for personal use only and are not to be
shared. Sorry to have to do this, but we need to take measures to ensure
security of our data.

So, speak now, yadda, yadda,..........

Thanks! Only a few more weeks to the new Directory!

Piggybacking here since I missed the original while I was out of town for
the Fourth. (Brought the teenaged DGK's home with us, so the 'puters are
pretty tied up most of the time LOL)
I like the text file too. Thanks Alice!
