I don't need this, but I want it.
TV ClubHouse: Archives: I don't need this, but I want it.
Not1worry | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 01:56 pm     A 2 week trip back to Italy to see all the things I missed when I lived there for 2 years in the 90s. I like Twinkie's idea of a nutritionist/cook, I'll sign on for that one. I'd like to replace almost any piece of furniture in the house. A trampoline for the kids and a yard big enough to put it in. The Sound of Music on DVD. A nice girl for my brother to marry, he's impossible to please, however. Unlimited stuff from Pampered Chef and Tastefully Simple. The more I read this thread, the more stuff I think I want. |
Mack | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 02:19 pm     Landi....you're not related to my DW (Carey)are you? She asked me when we got married 6 years ago if I minded if she collected "some" Longaberger. "Some" has turned into something like 100 baskets and two visits to "basket mecca" in Dresden. We put everything in Longaberger!!! :-) |
Halfunit | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 03:08 pm     Landi - this is for you:
Unit and I bust out laughing everytime we pass it on our way to Columbus. I'm sorry, but it is a strange building! |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 03:19 pm     MM says he wants but doesn't need a private island in the Bahamas, complete with all self-sustaining amenities. Put him there, and the rest is moot, and he'd stand on the beach dongling anyone who sailed by because he could. (LOL). |
Neko | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 04:00 pm     A Car A Cell Phone (One of those nice Telus ones..) A Boyfriend A personal trainer for Track and Field A bigger bedroom A new computer (With tons of ram and a fast connection) A closet full of new nice clothes :P |
Landi | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 04:45 pm     mack, i'm not a collector, i'm a user. every basket i buy has a function in our house. i don't just have pretty baskets. i have replaced almost all rubbermaid and storage bins, etc. with longaberger. i just love the look of it. i'm lucky my husband likes it too (he just doesn't know how much it costs! ) i just.... WANT MORE!!!! ROFL halfunit! i know dave longaberger had a great sense of humor when he decided to create the corporate building! i always think it's a hoot too! |
Landi | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 04:46 pm     mack, previous message was a way of me trying to validate my obsession! hehehe I WANT therefore i MUST HAVE! have your DW email me and we'll talk the basket talk! |
Tagurit | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 05:39 pm     All new living room and bedroom furniture. A year round sunroom. A two week vacation to CA. A big new TV. I want to redo my kitchen. A beautiful gazebo in my backyard. A craft room. (I guess with that I would have to say a big workshop shed for my dh. Can't enjoy my craft room if he doesn't have a haven for himself.) |
Mack | Wednesday, August 27, 2003 - 05:28 am     Landi - We too use many, actually most of our baskets. Carey is a charter Collector's Club member and has all the mini's and we've collected a number of the original J.W.'s. I'm not complaining.....have even made two baskets myself at Longaberger. Have made personal friends with the first Longaberger weaver. One of the "bad" things about moving from Virginia is that we're no longer without easy driving distance of Dresden. DW's license plates in Virginia were "BSKT FAN"!!!! I know if she was posting here she totally agree....WANT therefore MUST HAVE!! (Order went in yesterday!) :-) |
Sia | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 09:15 pm     I have a first-cousin who is a top-notch weaver for Longaberger. She's been there for years! She's so good at weaving the baskets that the company sends her around the U.S. demonstrating basket-weaving. I don't have any Longaberger baskets, but I have two Herschbargers' baskets. They're also hand-made and not nearly as expensive. |
Tabbyking | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 09:45 pm     i have a cheap plastic easter basket. does that count? |
