I'm interested in doing the words. The problem is that I can't log on every day. Suggestions?

How often do you log in? You would have to commit to some type of schedule so that people would know when to look for words. If you log on like every other day then you could post two days worth of words everytime you log in. But if you only log in once a week I would think it better if someone else call the words. What do the rest of you all think? Gina

JUdy how about Shower words for April. You could do words associated with bath type showers,wedding showers or baby showers. Just think of as many as you can & then ask for help if you get stumped. I am not sure how many words you should have in the original list.

| There are 30 days in April, 5 words a day are picked so you need 150 words. |

Looks like we are good to go. Suggestions for gathering your words list once you pick you theme. 1. Ask for words here on the site. I think that is how we did it in the beginning. 2. Search the internet for word lists. I think Lennie did it thsi way. 3. Pick a word and enter it at Thesaurus.com (http://thesaurus.reference.com/). This is how I got most of my words. I qam sure there are other ways to collect words. Just remember 5 words per day. Gina

I was wondering if there is a rule, I couldn't find it in the bingo, rules so, could I combine the theme for april, like wedding showers, baby showers, etc. I thought I could do Baby shower, but couldn't find enough words, anywhere. only have 128. for baby,and I checked on wedding shower, etc. still couldn't come up with enough words, so what is everyone;s thought about combining wedding shower, bridal shower, baby shower, house warming shower, we are going to have a big shower in April.

That would work. You can also add rain showers, snow showers & any other kind of showers you can think of.

Judy, I think showers in general (rain/gift giving/whatever) would work and you can add anythign that goes with them too!
