F/U to the KK Tradition (LONG)

Catalina Island Bound · October 2009

Ladies ~ just a reminder. ( I'm not directing this towards anyone in particular, just to everyone in general ~ so PLEASE don't take this to heart ~ if you have any questions or problems, please feel free to email me directly - shellicabo@gmail.com) Some of the ladies on this DW Board have been here for a year... some two years. These women have DESERVED to take part in the KK Tradition and have been waiting to get the KK in their hands and deservedly so. Please, please, please know that in participating in the KK Exchange tradition, all that is expected from you in return is to ensure that the next in line receives the KK prior to their leave date. We currently have 8 KK's in circulation and have just about 45 participating in this tradition. I have ensured that there is MORE THAN ENOUGH TIME from your return date and the next in line's leave date for your to take some time to unwind from your DW and then forward the KK on. It is not fair for the next in line to have to be stressed out as to whether or not she will be receiving the KK in time ~ I firmly believe we would all have enough to have to worry about. With that being said, it's not fair to me to have to make last minute changes to the KK's path to accomodate another's failure to pass it on; as well as it being fair to the bride to be in which the KK is supposed to originally go to. However, I will be doing everything in my power to ensure that EACH AND EVERY BRIDE on the KK list get to have a KK with them on their wedding day. It is a little disheartening for someone who's been waiting for the one particular KK that they've been signed up for, knowing what former DW Brides had it prior and it having a sentimental value in their heart, and then having to be told that they won't be getting that KK after all. Sorry if this isn't making sense, or is too long, but I guess what I am trying to say is, please respect this tradition, enjoy the KK on your wedding day, add your postcard well wishes, and send it on to the next in line. Just think about how you felt when you first got the KK in your hands... how exicting it was for you.... reading all the well wishes from the Nesties... don't you think your fellow DW Bride deserves the same feelings?!?!? Thanks for all of your anticipated cooperation. Much ♥, Shelli

Thanks for handling the KKs Shelli! You do a fabulous job!

Very well said. And we all know you are doing and absolutely fantastic job with this. You know you rock my world :-) Also...I should add that the knottie that was going to send it to me sent me an e-mail about a month ago and I know she has a lot going on for her. I'm not sure if the KK was sent and lost in the mail, or if she got complications of some sort and has not been able to send it. The girl I'm getting it from is a very loved knottie, and she has been wonderful and I don't have any issues with her...I'm just a little sad by the situation...that's all.

You are doing a great job Shelli! This shouldn't be so complicated. Normailed - I hope your able to add a postcard to your temporary one. It just wouldn't be right if there wasn't a KK floating around with your advice.

Shelli kudos to you for taking care of KK for all of us! It is awesome that you are staying on top of things and trying your best to make sure all of us get a chance to have the KK for our big day!

Future.Mrs.H. · October 2009

What I mean is not that the op is directed to her...I just wanted to clarify so the knotties that read my previous posts know.I don't wanna cause any drama or hurt feelings...you all know that.

Future.Mrs.H. · October 2009

I wish I had time to get the pic and add it to that KK, but I'm gonna try to send it no later than Monday, even Saturday if I can, so I don't think I would have time :-(But I'll make sure I do something creative when I come back ;-)

FutureMrs.McC · October 2009

I was gonna say that! You could always send your Post Card to Shelli so she can add it later.

Also for clarification...... as mentioned above, I'm not pointing fingers at ANYONE WHATSOEVER!!! In Normailed's instance, whatever the circumatances may be in which the KK has not been received yet has nothing to do with my reasons for this thread!!!!! However, of all Knotties on this board, she deserves to have the KK with her on her wedding day. She may still receive it tomorrow, or the next day or the day that she leaves... that isn't the point... I was merely trying to state that there is some very strong sentimental reasons for why we each signed up for this tradition.... some more than other. And I just wanted to point that out.

Well said Shelli!

Very well said Shelli.

Shelli, you ROCK! And so do all the DW knotties who have signed up to participate in the KK! I'd hate to see this tradition discontinued because the knots keep getting lost or whatever so let's all reaffirm our promises to get the knot out as soon as possible, or ask to be removed from the KK list if you don't think that's possible.

Lisa7 · October 2009

Very well said. Do you still have a copy of the current KK list? I was wondering/hoping the one I had is still around. I forget who was to get it next

VERY well said Shelli! We all appreciate you taking care of this tradition for us!I know how excited I've been to get the KK and now that I have it it's almost surreal! I couldn't imagine taking that away from another knottie. I really think we all need to respect & take very good care of the KK's while in our hands and be sure to pass them on in a timely manner to be sure everyone gets a chance to enjoy this tradition!

Very well said Shelli. It's a shame that Normailed among others cannot participate the way others have.
