We have received the following suggestion from one of our members.....
"Just a note about the Thank-you forum. I LOVE the idea that it is there
for us to express our Thanks to our sis. However it may build in
expectations in gals who may wonder why they are not hearing as frequently
as some others. Just a thought."

#1: I THINK THAT EVEN IF OUR SECRET SISTERS WISH TO REMAIN ANNONOMOUS AND NOT REVEAL THEIR IDENTITY THAT EITHER THEY THEMSELVES OR BAR_BAR OR AJRSMOM SHOULD LET US KNOW OF THIS DECISION. AT LEAST THAT WAY WE ARE NOT JUST HELD IN DARKNESS . HONESTLY THIS BUILT UP EXCITEMENT TO LEARN MY SECRET SISTERS IDENTITY IS A REAL DISSAPPOINTMENT TO ME.
#2 I AM HOPING THAT ONCE WE GET OUR SS ASSIGNED TO US FOR AUGUST THAT THE JULY THREADS ON THE MEETING ROOM AS WELL AS THE THANK YOU FOR RECEIVING THREAD WILL BE DELETED AS THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I MAY VERY WELL CHOOSE TO SEND THE SAME ITEM TO MY NEW SS MONTH AFTER MONTH SINCE I AM A CRAFTER AND DO ALOT OF THE SAME PROJECTS, ESPECIALLY THE GRANDE FANALE WHERE I REVEAL MY IDENTITY TO MY SS.

1. Yes, I agree with you that even if the secret sister choses not to reveal, they should let you know. That is what we intended from the start but I see that there are still some problems to work through. Starting in August, This will be required.
Im am sorry that your secret sister hasnt revealed to you yet but there are still 2 days left in the month so there still is hope!
2:We are planning on locking the July threads and opening new ones for August. We will continue to do this every month. No plans to delete them though. Maybe you could ask your sister not to reveal what your last gift is? This way they would know that a thank-you would be enough.
*********************
Vrsherren, You are joining the secret sister exchange for the month of August. You should have the name of your secret sister by Aug. 5th.

I have a suggestion and I really wish I'd done this last time but I am going to do it this time!
My suggestion is this: I printed out the info sheet on my SS. On the back I am going to write the date and what I did/sent to her so that I can track what all went where! Does this make sense? That way if there is ever any question that comes up, I can look back on that sheet and say "on this date I sent this to her email" or ??.
Just wanted to share this as I thought it might help everyone else, too!

I am also starting a scrapbook putting in it all the cards, emails, ecards and a pic of what my ss sent me last month in it! That way I can go back look at it from time to time...
