Oh, I took this idea from someone who was banned or suspended for good that hosted it last year...I would have asked but no way to contact her!!

For this swap you will keep a journal during the holiday season (starting November 24th, 2008 [USA Thanksgiving] and ending January 1, 2008 [New Year's]). I know that the holidays are a busy time, so you don't have to write an entry for every day, but you should write at least four entries a week. Talk about your holiday traditions, share recipes, discuss what you'd like to get for Christmas, recall favorite childhood memories, describe what the neighborhood light displays look like, whatever you'd like! Feel free to add pictures or decorate as you see fit. Please use a nice journal for this swap, no cheap spiral bound notebooks - send something you would like to receive yourself.

You will keep ONE journal and receive ONE journal.

Please be respectful of other religions. I'm not saying that you can't talk about your church or spiritual group, but no "anyone who doesn't believe exactly as I do is wrong" stuff or trying to convert others to your religion.

To participate in the swap, you must have at least a 4.8 rating with NO no-sends. If you believe that you were rated unfairly, please message me so we can work out the details. No newbies and must have at least 15 hearts.

Because some people like to flake...I will keep and extra journal to send if someone gets flaked on!! However, I will ban anyone who seems suspicious or doesn't meet the swap requirements.
