    Hi, Norbana. You can add my name and blocks to the list. I sent them air mail on Thursday, so they will be out there somewhere.
    I am trying to imagine what a pile of 10,000 blocks will look like. It's mind boggling. Good luck, and many thanks.

    Please take pictures as this goes along. Can't even imagine what all those blocks will look like. Just finishing mine up and then the signing starts.

    I haven't been receiving notifications on this thread so I have had to catch up.

    Great to see the number of "blocks received" is climbing.

    I sent the required number of blocks so don't have extras but would think using the extras to fill in where there is a shortfall in numbers sent would spread them round. I doubt people want to receive their extras back.

    I agree with everyone here regarding extra blocks...just do whatever you want with them. If you want to divvy up amongst those who otherwise wouldn't be getting very many back, that's OK with me. Or send to the ones who had to drop out due to medical issues or moving or whatever. Or send them back if you prefer (although I, too, don't really want a bunch of my own blocks...personally, I got kinda tired of looking at them!).

I feel so bad letting you all down. But, the moving thing came up after sign ups and I just ran out of time and energy. Hugs to you all.

    Sorry you have to drop out. You sound terribly busy. I can understand the need to drop. I hope things settle down and the medical issue gets resolved.
