So I have a few questions.
And I am looking for some honest feedback.
The Pinktastic Swaptastic has just wrapped up.
Everyone received their packages of PINK goodness.
Even though Mother Nature TRIED to put a major damper on the whole thing.
PINK prevailed!!!
Hah! Take THAT Mo-Nature.
I have received the questionnaires from ALMOST everyone who participated.
(if you didn't respond there is a very good chance you will be disqualified for future swaps)
The feedback was GREAT.
People are pleased I run a tight swap.
I have posted TWO polls on my sidebar
ONE to choose the next swap theme.
TWO to choose the date of the next swap.
PLEASE vote, everyone...even if you have never participated in one of my swaps!
I want to answer any questions you may have about why I run swaps the way that I do.
I am also ALWAYS open to feedback.
So, the floor is now yours.
Ask what you want and I will reply in another post.
You can ask me ANYTHING.
Swap related or whatever....I will answer.
Also...while I have your attention I have a few questions for you:
1. Have you entered this week's giveaway?
2. Are you part of the bloggy revolution?
3. Have you considered joining My Happy List linky party?
4. If you could change one thing about my bloggy style what would it be?
Be honest now...

I think your blog is awesome just the way it is. One more time: Thanks for doing swaps! This last one was great and I know you have to run a tight swap and that's awesome!
Voting was hard, I like all the choices you gave in your poll. I can't wait to see what you come up with!
I always enjoy your swaps! Regardless of theme (I voted anyhow though). :-)
No, REALLY....answer my questions.
and ask me ANYTHING...
look I am even commenting in my OWN comments...
THAT is how serious I am.
SEE, serious.
What?! My TwilIght Swap idea didn't make it to te poll?? I'm disappointed.
Whew. Good thing I finally decided to clean out my 554 emails yesterday or I might not have seen the final Pinktastic swap email I hadn't responded too yet. That was a close call.
I wouldn't change a thing. Nothing. Nada.
I voted!
I can't enter this week's giveaway. But I commented! And I'm planning on buying me a cute coffee cozy soon!!
I'm on board with the revolution, but I still need to squeeze in a blog post!
I participate in the Happy List...and I love it!
Do I really have to pick just one swap theme? They're all pretty awesome & look like fun.
I voted. I like all the swap ideas--some a bit more than others. I'm hoping to get in on the next one, whatever it is.
I like the way you have your blog set up. It's fun to come visit.
Question--If I participated in Shortmama's spring swap last year, does that make me eligible to play in your next one?
Am I a horrible person for hoping for disqualifications so i can participate?
yes?
ok...
First off, I'm so excited that you do swaps! I can't wait to participate! I was apart of my first swap in December and I loved it!
I love your blog! I enjoy coming to visit!
Even though I didn't participate in the pink swap this time I voted. Hope that is ok. I want sooo badly to be in on the next swap. And girlfriend, don't change a thang!!!!
I am enjoying your blog as is. I need to grab one of the buttons. That is s good one, and it is frustrating when you can't email peeps after their awesome comments.
I want a tutorial on your swap parties because I want to participate :D
xoxoxo,
Ricki Jill
Don't piss Mother Nature off!! She is a bitch!!
That's a tough one to vote on! I'm torn between 2 themes right now, and the only dates that do NOT work for me are the ones in March.
I need to get better about linking up with your Happy list again. Maybe this weekend???
And you know I wouldn't change you!
I guess I'll go vote now.
And maybe ask you a question via email, if I think of one...
I just entered your giveaway.I already participate in The Happy List...love this:)
I like the style of my blog,but would like to add tabs. But I don't know how.
I love doing swaps,how do I join the Pinktastic Swaptastic?
Nope...don't change a thing about your bloggy style! You're a straight shooter and I like that about you! I've participated in one of your swaps before and I really enjoyed it...hope to do so, again! I'm off to vote in your polls!
I haven't answered those questions yet. I may be in trouble because I think I deleted that email.
I'M SORRY!! Re-send if you REALLY want me to answer the questions but there really is no need. It was perfect.
Other questions:
1. I left a comment but didn't enter this week. Coffee makes me gag.
2. YES YES YES I AM! I blogged about it.
3. As a matter of fact, I have my HAPPY LIST sitting in my draft posts. I'll be participating!
4. Your blog is perfection! I don't think I'd change anything.
I made my vote known on the sidebar but I'm being outvoted and I don't like it.
That email got lost and then buried! I will dig it back out and reply today! So Sorry!
I did join the revolution and love being able to reply back to emails! Makes it so much easier!
I didnt enter this week-not a coffee drinker...but I need to start...would love to win free stuff!
Haven't entered this weeks giveaway because I'm not a coffee drinker. Haven't done the bloggy revolution post or happy list yet either. I've considered both but I'm the first to admit I'm the biggest procrastinator ever and haven't gotten to either yet. :( But I do still love your blog and am looking forward to being able to do the next swap! I just voted.
Oh no...did I respond to that email? If not I'm with IA, send it again if you want me to answer but nothins broke so there no need to fix a thing!
1-I have a ton of insulated coffee mugs so I wanted someone else to win the coozie {that's what I call those things}
2. YES! As a matter of fact I just send someone to your blog to be schooled on it!
3. Week 33 if rolling around in my head right now.
4. Ummmm don't be so darned nice and "on it" all of the time, you make me look bad!
Ok, so I totally just voted. Goodness I can't wait until another swap! Beth and I want to run a swap eventually too, but we'll plan it around you first-because you are the queen of swaps and I LOVE them! You do run a tight ship, and it's brilliant.
To answer your questions:
1. I didn't enter the giveaway-I should I know, those are brilliant I just have no use for them... I want to save my chance to win for something I'll use :)
2. I am SO a part of the bloggy revolution. VIVA!
3. Yes, and I need to link up and do it more often. I will this week, promise.
4. Nothing, I love you just the way you are. :) thanks for always being so responsive and active.
Loves!
What the heck is a flip flop swap? Wish I could vote for more than one theme....but I guess that just means the NEXT swap has multiple potential themes, too. :D
Oh, I suck! I forgot to answer the questions. Ok, here goes:
1. Have you entered this week's giveaway?
YES.
2. Are you part of the bloggy revolution?
YES.
3. Have you considered joining My Happy List linky party?
YES, and I participate every Saturday.
4. If you could change one thing about my bloggy style what would it be?
Uhm...good question. I feel like you have a good balance of personal info posts, giveaways, swaps, and now reviews. Uhm....hrmmmm....nothing, really. I'm curious about the vlog linky party, but I love the others that you do. They encourage me to blog regularly. Yay! :D
Don't change a thing! I love your blog.
Yes I am part of the revolution.
Girl, I keep forgetting about the happy list. D'oh! And I do like that post.
Now I am off to vote on the poll. The ideas for the next swap are so fun!
thanks for the reminder to answer my email! I do not want to be excluded fo sho.
I voted.
I entered this weeks giveaway
I am part of the revolution.
I don't blog on weekends which is why I don't do the happy list.
ummmm. I don't really have any questions for you or suggestions or anything really. I'm kinda useless like that.
I read someone suggested a Twilight Swap ... good grazy that would be awesome! Maybe next time :)
I voted, I wanted to vote for two (flips and favorite things) ... look like fun!
I want to know how you made your falt, I want to make one. Not to be all copycatish, but it'd be fun to take my flat out sometimes, or have our flats have a play date.
Happy Wednesday!
Maegan :)
{some how I missed the questionnaire... do you think you could re-send that to me?, I have good intentions but I'm really working on my issue with following through. I think that's why swapping so good therapy for me}
I think about your happy list... mine too. I just never seem to get it up in time. I'm working on it though.
I miss some of your day to day posting and the ones with your family. You seem to have so much business going on with Happy Lists and Give Aways, and while I love these... I miss hearing about you.
Um...I think I better go find said questionnaire and fill it out...because I would cry if you wouldn't let me play :)
And...you better not change a thing about your blogging style :)
I totally voted on the next swap and cannot wait to see which one ends up being the winner!
As for questions, I don't have any at the moment.
And here I go looking like a horrible blogger ... No, I haven't entered the giveaway ... I have horrible luck with them (and I don't drink coffee)! The bloggy revolution - of course, although I haven't blogged about it. You got me into replying to my blog comments!! Yes, I've considered joining your happy list, but haven't and *promise* to soon. And as for changing anything about your bloggy style, well, I wouldn't!
I figure ... for my shy self, I should probably take it slow! However, I will say that you've brought me out of my bloggy shell quite a lot already!
You're fantastically fantastic just the way you are!
Ummm, Can I blame my forgetfullness on the baby and beg you to re-send the questionaire? I'm sorry. I suck lately.
I just voted. I am being out-voted though, DANG IT!
Question for you... Are you ever gonna tell us what the changes were on your blog when it got "touched up". Is that weird that I still wonder? Geesh, I have more to occupy my brain with, not sure why this is still rolling around in my head. I'm lame, I know.
I entered.
I am part of the revolution. I have helped change a few people.
I need to be more regular about joining "My Happy List". I'll try harder.
I adore your blog. I adore you. Keep on keepin on sista!
Question: Why is the sky blue? LOL!
No really, your swaps are awesome and I can't think of a thing to change about them. Just, how on earth do you make sure awesome pairings?
I voted, but I too, am being out voted. I hate to say it, as much as I love Favorite thing Swaps, it's been done. And *maybe* over done. But that's just me. Any my hormones!
As for your questions:
1-I didn't enter bc I don't drink coffee, and I never go to Starbucks or another coffee shop to get hot chocolate.
2-I am apart of the blog revolution. I should probably blog about it again.
3-I starting to do My Happy List linky party and will do it again this week!
4-Umm, IDK. Your s-t-y-l-e is great! Love it!
Gee, guess I'm out for not posting enough, and did not receive a questionnaire either. My complaint is that sometimes life interferes with posting and you must understand posting when time permits is far more enjoyable then the stresses in life. Funny, everything went well till swap ended. Lori
I voted on both polls and am getting my butt handed to me. With a fork lift, cuz it's pretty big.
I don't think I did the questionaire!! CRAP!!! I must go look and see if I saved it or what.
Send it to me again please cuz I suck!
And. I get lazy about entering giveaways. I know. Rude. I just won a cozy from JK a couple months back, but I could use another. I'll enter. :)
My revolution post is going up NEXT Friday. I know. LATE!!! I even wrote how late and lame I am.
I wanted to put it in a confessions post and I'm doing FBomb tomorrow. Bleh.
Oh. And I like your style. I only like MORE posts. Cuz I can't get enough! :)
I Love your blog! I'm a new follower and can't wait to read more.
The swap sounds awesome...Love the idea!
And I also am liking the confess Friday and Tuesday talk about it! Fun and I plan on joining.

Nothing is wrong with your blog, I love it... following your blog anyway, hope you could visit and follow mine, I am a newbie...GOD bless!
Although I've never participated in any of your swaps, I can tell that you are super organized about it. That's a good thing! You stay on top of all of the participants, it's actually very motivational.
I hope that I get to participate in a future swap! I answered both of your polls, so it'll be interesting to see what comes about!
Now to answer your questions:
1) No, I have not. But I should! I heard something about Starbucks.....
2) I am part of the bloggy revolution. I just finished a post about it (better late then never, yeah?), so it should publish tomorrow.
3) I love Happy List linky party!!
4) I wouldn't change anything about your bloggy style. I love your blog cuz it's amazing.....just the way it is. Which is why....
I've awarded you with a Stylish Blogger award, because you are awesome. Hope you don't mind :). http://tayirl.blogspot.com/2011/02/oh-hiwhats-up-guys.html
I voted in your two polls, and I wouldn't change a thing about your blog.
First week participating in Friday confessional!
