Expectations???
In the comments in the last post, we loosely started tossing around the "when" and "hows".
Here's what I'm initially thinking: to have a hard, fast date & time (when you all can "hang out online" at the same time), it will probably have to be a Saturday or Sunday (perhaps the 20th or 21st?). Weekdays are too "iffy" with all of Leslie's doc appointments. If it's a weekend date, I can pull Nick into the secret to guarantee Leslie's presence at a particular time.
So, what say you all?? What would you like this to look like?
I'm fairly flexible in terms of timing (I'm only unavailable mid-late afternoon weekdays).

hmmmmnnn...this is tricky. weekends are just so unpredictable for us. but you are right, she has all those doctor appointments. hmmmmnnn...and I totally think we need to let Nick in on the secret...and see if we can't get his help in the timing.
good questions???? good questions. hopefully some good answers arise.
and thanks so much Susan for all you are doing and are going to do.
Don't know what you ladies think of this idea, but seeings as it seems the shower will be pretty interactive on the shower day why not have us all log onto an instant messaging site such as msn messanger? and have one set up for Leslie and Susan to log into aswell. if you are still thinking of doing games this might work better aswell and be more interactive when she is opening up her gifts etc? just a thought that popped into my head this morning.
I also liked Susan's idea of a lunchtime date, I think that means it will be early morning over here. silly time diff!
Saturdays are also best for me - means it's sunday morning here before church. Also going back in the archives the 20th is Andi's little girls party - is that right Andi?
So is the 27 of Sept getting too late? It would also give me a little more time to get my gifts to susan.
oh the things to think about!
ps. you ladies are all so great :)
For me, I'm super flexible...just tell me when and where and I'll be here ;)
I agree with Chelle about contacting Nick and having him help with the coordination.
I also like the idea of getting some kind of IM going with all of us. Does MSN let multiple users IM together? I BELIEVE Yahoo allows you to set up a "room" for several people to enter into to chat.
Here is another thought - even if we can't all be here at the same time we could easily set up the IM room with an invite to everyone involved and just let it stay open for a couple hours...kind of like an open house. We could say, for example, from 3 PM 6 PM any one of us (or many of us) could jump in and say our congratulations to Leslie. Just a thought ;)
glad you like the idea Shanna. Yes MSN Messenger does allow you to have group conversations but you also need to download the program and I think a yahoo chatroom would be better and easier for everyone to sign in to. And love the idea of it being left open for a couple of hours to pop on say hello and surprise etc - fun!
