Default Anyone interested in...

... a regular weekly time to get together in the "Designers Coffee Shop" chat room to just visit, talk scrapbooking (or not) and continue the great mojo of yesterday?

I must say, I'm hooked. And I could really use a regular "girls night out," so to speak. And what better group to hang out with than you guys??? So... would any of you be interested in setting a regular time to meet each week ... say, 8 p.m. (MST)/10 p.m. (EST) every Tuesday??? Or suggest something better, though I realize time zones may be an issue...

It doesn't have to be a commitment... if you could just come "most" of the time, it would work. Let me know what you think!!!

I would love to try to make it =) If it was 8pm (MST) or later I could join after the kiddos went to sleep.

If you want the Brits involved! and why not then 10 pm our time would be 6 pm your time EST or is it EDT ? not sure what MST is... Even if you made it 11 pm our time then I'm sure us UK girls would try to drop in every so often. I think it's a brilliant idea to carry on the chat ethos of yesterday

That would be 4pm my time. I could swing that too because I would be home from getting the kids and not dinner time just yet =)

This sounds like fun! I'd love to join in. My kiddos are usually in bed by 8PM EST but I'll try to sneak in whenever is best for everyone. Are you supplying the wine Kristin?

Sure, Suzanne... at least to start. Then maybe we'll switch to BYOB.

Glad to hear there are others interested... let's double check with Katie & wait a few days to see who else might want to take part, then we can settle on a day & time.

I'd love to try it! I'm a SAHM so any time is equally good/bad, lol. I would definitely join in when I can, and since I'm more flexible I'll let you all pick the time!

I sent an email to Katie to get the okay (maybe a bit late... oops!) and if she's okay with it (fingers crossed), we'll set up a time. Can't wait!!

Did you hear that, everyone??? YAY! So, since a couple people have a problem with Tuesday and I didn't really hear any other problem days mentioned (yet!), how about we try for Thursdays at 8 p.m. (MDT)/10 p.m. (EST) starting this Thursday (April 30)??? If you can make it, great! If not, hopefully next time?!?!? See you then!!

Have fun, I'll be too busy snoring to join in, but I'm sure there'll be an earlier one some week too.
