Well, you know Jeff is a single guy. From time to time, things get lost in the shuffle in the house. As soon as he was informed, he moved last night's clothes, and THERE IT WAS!!!!!
 
I hate to admit but this was the first time I've donated. Kinda makes a guy feel good and yes I'm waitin for my cup too! So come on, If I can donate so can you!!!
 
So I'm sitting here laughing about CA and my other half is unloading her car and brings me a box. I'm looking at the address and thinking who's this from? It's too early for the stuff I ordered from Lou and Ed Sunday evening. I kept looking at the return address and duh..... It's from Jeff .. Got my mug today....Hooray!! Looks great and will use it tomorrow....Don't be Jealous.....donate and get yours coming. Thanks for the hard work Jeff and everyone else who has chipped in!!!

Now everybody get out and Donate!!
 
I know I spent $600 on my shop in one week last year. $50 to help out the group that shows me what to do with it is not a lot. By the way any donation helps. I know I could never give what this group is worth to me, So i give what I can. I recently found a group (not pen related) that charges for full membership. I have to say that I have a new found appreciation for the fact this one has been ran on donations all these years. It goes a long way toward keeping everyone on equal standing. Plus it has never set right with me to have to charge for access to information that was provided freely and I know for a fact others feel the same way. This group has a genuine "Give a hoot" about it's members and their goals, hopes and ideas. Donations are as important as greeting every new member, answering every question with helpful and accurate information and lending a hand to a member who is down and out. It is all a part of what makes this place happen. Also notice there is no advertising. trust me that is not because suppliers don't want to advertise here. Also there are no fees to sell things here either. There is only one way to generate the money required to run this site, and that is the generous nature of it's members. By the way I got my mug, and it looks way better than Cav's.
