Sacramento Area/Roseville CD mommas

[luv2bmommy]

Hello,

Just checking to see who else is out there. My daughter is 18 months old and in BumGenius & we love them. Just found out that we are expecting again, only triplets this time around. LORDY!

Anyway it'll be time to potty train soon...

Thought I'd see if anyone else is out there!

~Holly

[BlessedwithBlue]

I'm a couple hours north of you near Chico. Triplets? Wow congrats!

[Jaylove]

We're in Carmichael just a few blocks away (literally) from Sacramento. We're a fitted and wool family but I love Bumgenius for outings and babysitters.

[tntplummer]

Roseville mama here :) :thumbsup:

[Songbird_kay]

I'm in Stockton, so I guess this would be the closest to me as well. I think this forum is a cool idea :) I have been wondering who might be around my area to be able to chat about local stores and such with.

Anyone know of any stores/boutiques that have cloth in them??

[faiths13]

Hi there! Im in Antelope and I have a lo in bg and bb! Cant wait to meet up! I tried to get a meet up with Sac moms earlier this month with no luck. Yay! Hey, does anyone go to the Mothers Support Network new moms meetings?

I just heard about them--I live right by the store and I stopped by once, but I haven't been to any meetings. I'm pretty shy so sometimes it's hard for me to do things for the first time.

[sparrowknits]

I live in North Sac and have a DD in Prefolds and wool covers/prowraps/litewraps. I've been to the MSN store a few times, but I can never make any of the classes or groups because I work weird hours.

[faiths13]

i kwym about being shy. sometimes its hard. not to many mamas seem to use cloth their, but they are cool. mostly all of the bf and there are a couple of homebirthers too (like me). i really want to meet some other mamas that are as addicted to cloth like i am so i can talk to someone about it! lol

[luv2bmommy]

Okay Mommas, does anyone want to meet up for a playdate next week? We could meet at the Roseville Galleria Mall, they have an awesome play area for kids who need to burn off some steam and lots of seating for us moms. The area is right infront of sears in the mall, so if it rains it's OKAY!

How about Tuesday at 10? Who is in??? Just some mommas coming together for support, no pressure at all. We could move the day if it's not good for people.... POST & let me know!

Hope to see you all,
~Holly

[luv2bmommy]

My brother and his wife just moved to Chico this last weekend! How funny! I'm still a little stunned about adding 3 more to the fam all at once, but it outta be crazy fun!!

[faiths13]

is it possible to pick another day? i like to go the the MSN meeting and its Wed at 10:30.

[luv2bmommy]

How about Tuesday at 10?

[faiths13]

anyone else?

[Jaylove]

I think we can make it. It is my first day of school though and I have to teach at 3:30, so it will depend on my stress level. Also, I have to figure out how to get there.:goodvibes:

[RetroBaby]

Hey guys! We live in Sac. Kind of between North Highlands and Carmichael. I'd love to get together. 10am is DS's nap time, but maybe he'll sleep in the car so count me in for Tuesday. :thumbsup:

[RetroBaby]

Anyone want to bring dipes to look at? :giggle:

[faiths13]

lol! we are gonna have a drool fest!

[RetroBaby]

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!! :lostit:

[lateybugprincess]

Hi Ladies, I never scrolled down to see this area. I live in the Natomas area and have a 8 week old little boy. I am extremely addicted to cding. Oh yeah, my DH is gonna die this week, I am diving into WOOL!! I would love to meet up with you all, but I guess you have older DC. He actually has pictures that morning at 11am at that Sears, and a Ped appt at 2:30pm, so we will be in RSVL. I grew up there! So glad there are other CDing mommas. My friends, and most of my family thinks I am crazy.

Rachael

[mum2kenna&lucas]

I am fairly close to Sac. I live by Jackson. My sis lives in East Sac, and I used to work at Sutter Roseville before I became a SAHM..:goodvibes:

[faiths13]

that is my ds nap time too, but at his age he naps all the time. maybe i can wear him.

[Jaylove]

I can bring some goodmamas for everyone to drool over.:drif:

[lateybugprincess]

Oh, yeah, that would be nice. I want some of them, hint, hint, you know where to sell them!:)
Rachael

[RetroBaby]

I can bring some goodmamas for everyone to drool over.:drif:

Me too, me too! :yay:

[faiths13]

what is everyone else going to bring to drool over?

[Shawna in CA]

Hi, I'm in Sacramento, too. 10:00 is way too early for me to get to Roseville, though. Gosh, the other day, it was almost too early for me to get to a La Leche League meeting in East Sac! LOL

Hopefully, I can make it to the next play date, though.

[Janiceandscott]

Hi! I'm in Carmichael:goodvibes: Is it ok to come if I don't cd? I would be really interested in meeting other ap mama's.

[faiths13]

if 10 is too early, then when is good for you? its my ds nap time and i wouldnt mind having it later.

[luv2bmommy]

Anyone who wants to come is welcome (janiceandscott)! I'm looking fwd to seeing the "goodmammas" I've heard awesome things about them. Let's leave the time at 10, and if it's too early for some folks, then just come a bit later. I'd think we'll be there till around noon... next time we'll pick a later time and see how that one goes.

This outta be fun! I'll be in a black shirt/sweater and jeans if you are looking for who I am. I'll also have a green CD in my hands for all to see (incase theres someone else in black and jeans lol).

Hope to see you all on Tuesday at 10 (ish)!!!

Go mommas!

~Holly

[faiths13]

Anyone go on cafemom? im starting a new group!

http://www.cafemom.com/group/addictedtocloth

[lateybugprincess]

I will be there, too. My baby has pics at Sears at 11:00, plus he is to small to "play" But, I want to drool over the GM's too. Ha. My good fluff hasn't come in the mail, and my new Butterfly Beco will be here tomorrow!! Yay!

Rachael

[Jaylove]

Sorry, I knew the first day of school would end up being busy:banghead: for me. I won't be able to make it. Hopefully we can do this again and I'll bring my goodmamas. I really wanted to see the new beco too.

Janay

[Janiceandscott]

My oldest dd goes to school in Fair Oaks at 11:30 so I'm going to try and come before taking her to school:goodvibes:

[RetroBaby]

I think I'm going to stay here. :( I am scared of driving on the freeway when it's raining (was in a bad accident a few years ago in the rain) and my kids slept HORRIBLY last night and I think Ethan is going to need his full nap at home. He was up way too early. :cry: I wish it weren't raining.

[faiths13]

my son was up from 12 am to 4 am last night and kept my whole house up. i had to stay home and get a nap in. i know what you mean about the rain though. : (

[Shawna in CA]

Anyone go on cafemom? im starting a new group!

http://www.cafemom.com/group/addictedtocloth



What a good idea! I bookmarked it, but haven't signed up yet. The baby is stirring, which means she'll be awake any minute, so I'll register next time I'm online.

As for a good time to meet----Usually closer to 11 or noon is better. My baby is only a month old, so our sleep patterns are still quite erratic, and there are times when she's cluster nursing from like 5:30 a.m. until 7:00 a.m., and then we go back to sleep for awhile.

There have been days when I felt fortunate to be able to shower and dress by 12:30!!! LOL

[Shawna in CA]

I think I'm going to stay here. :( I am scared of driving on the freeway when it's raining

I'm not too crazy about doing freeway driving in the rain, either, especially in our town!! Seems like everyone still drives like it's 90 degrees & sunny, even when the rain is coming down so hard it's almost like driving in fog.

I went to Laguna yesterday to visit a Jo-Ann Fabric store, and the husband had been out by Roseville & nearly had a conniption. I'm all, "It's just LAGUNA! Sheesh. I'll be FINE!" Plus, it wasn't even RAINING in that part of town, meanwhile it had been sleeting around Roseville from what he'd said. I'm all, "SLEET? We don't get snow here, and you're saying it was SLEETING in Roseville?" HAHAhAHA Such drama.

[RetroBaby]

anyone want to get together on thurs? nak

[faiths13]

that might work for me

[Shawna in CA]

Coming down with a sore throat. I'll stay home for awhile, rather than put other people & their babies at risk of something contagious.

Be careful out there. The RSV virus is at an all time high this time of year, and it's very dangerous.

One of my husband's friends is a doctor in the ER at Sutter General, and has been admitting babies to the hospital because they've had it.

One of this guy's neighbors has a 2 month old that caught it, and she was in the hospital over 2 weeks and had to be hooked up to oxygen for awhile, and will now have to live with permanent lung damage as a result of coming down with this virus---which she caught because her parents had a Christmas party & everyone was breathing on the baby, and someone in the crowd had the virus.

http://www.kidshealth.org/parent/infections/lung/rsv.html

So, just in case, I'm staying away from everyone, especially those with children. So far, all I have is a sore throat, but I'm not taking any chances.

[Janiceandscott]

What time were you thinking?:goodvibes:

[Janiceandscott]

I noticed that "The business of being born" will be playing at the Imax on March 13. Anyone here plan on going?:thumbsup:

[faiths13]

i would like to go to that. at this point i cant plan that far ahead. i havent even left my baby yet! i dont know much about that movie. ricky lake taped her birth? n e way, is are any cali moms trying to meet up or what?

[Luckiest*DW]

Hey ladies~I live in Indianapolis but grew up in Folsom and we'll be visting at the end of Feb. Are there any good CD stores in the Sac area? There aren't any in Indianapolis.

[faiths13]

there arent any in sac that i know of, but i think there is one in chico. i wish there was one!

[mccullar]

[Shawna in CA]

Hey ladies~I live in Indianapolis but grew up in Folsom and we'll be visting at the end of Feb. Are there any good CD stores in the Sac area? There aren't any in Indianapolis.

Yeah, I don't think there are any CD stores here. When I was pregnant, I looked, but wound up just buying everything online due to the lack of actual CD stores.

[Shawna in CA]

are any cali moms trying to meet up or what?


I'd like to, it's just kind of tricky right now. The baby is 5 weeks old & we're still trying to figure out how to shower, dress, and leave the house in a single day! LOL! I don't remember it being THIS tricky when my 15 year old was a baby. :giggle2:

lol! i kwym! i had the same prob when my ds was that little. its gotten easier, but now i just have to work around his naps.

[faiths13]

man, where is everyone?

[Shawna in CA]

I'm here. Been trying to get the baby's naps on a more regular schedule, and it's a bit tricky. Plus, when she's napping, I've been trying to spend more time unwinding with fun stuff and fixing things that have been neglected the past month----like dusting furniture. LOL

[Janiceandscott]

Is anyone interested in girl clothes from 0-9 month clothes? I have way too many and I just don't have the time to list them. If you are interested let me know:thumbsup:

[Forest77]

Hi everyone! I'm Cara and I live in Placerville. I have a 9 week old little girl. We're just getting started CDing, I'm still trying to figure out what system I like. I wish I had known there was a CD store in Chico, I was just there!

[motherculture]

hI,
I am in Cool near Auburn and grew up In Eldorado County. I have family in Eldorado Hills. I I love Diapers and if anyone ever wants to bring me fabric I can take custom work. Alwayf funner to see my diapers on a baby in person. And Tripplets! wow you will need a lot of diapers.

[faiths13]

anyone wanna wakl with me? the weather is so nice and i need to loose baby weight! anyone interested in walking with me n ds?

[princesslilahsmom]

I live right next door to Carmichael in the Arcade-ish area!

[Jaylove]

The weather is no good for it now, but would anyone be interested in a picnic/trip to the zoo/Fairytale Town when the sun comes out again? If there is interest I will suggest it again in a couple of weeks and try to organize something.

[faiths13]

[Janiceandscott]

i would be!

[mccullar]

hey any mama's that are prego want to get their pictures done professionally please pm me. a friend who owns a local photography studio is looking for a prego mama.

[Sew Crafty Baby]

Been on here a little while now and just saw this forum.. LOL

I'm also in the Sacramento area.. used to be in Folsom but now in Rancho Cordova, new Anatolia area. But sooo wish to be back in Folsom.

Anyone else out this way?

[granolababies]

Hi Everyone,

I just posted yesterday in the Intro section. That is where I learned about the Sacramento forum :)

I list my location as Sacramento - but I am actually in Folsom. I just list the Sacramento as a general thing for people.

I am excited to see all of you locals! I don't run into that many locals who use cloth - so it is always exciting.

Maybe there can be a park day meetup? That would be fun :)

[makoa's mommy]

Another Antelope mom here:thumbsup: , part time cloth diapering, always spending way to much money at the Galleria!!! Open to play dates! Also worked at SRMC until LO was born:giggle:
Beth, I will be needing some Bummis covers so I will check out your site, would much rather support a local momma!!!

[faiths13]

does anyone in sac ever come here? yikes! its always so dead!

[motherculture]

HI, I just forget about this thread all the time. I would be up for teaching a sewing tutorial for anyone who is interested in making there own Cloth diapers. I don't have any children in diapers (hopefully in a year or so we will have an unplanned Cretion!) so a diaper swap is not as fun for me.

[Shawna in CA]

does anyone in sac ever come here? yikes! its always so dead!

I try, but with the baby & everything, my online time is practically zero.

[sparrowknits]

I just wanted to update my stash info since it was so boring in my first post. I'm done with tidee didee, thank goodness. Now I have a nice little stash of fitteds (swaddlebees one size OCV), home-dyed prefolds, 5 pockets (bumgenius 3.0 and happy heiney's one size) for nights/babysitters, wahm covers (new york diaper company), thirsties, home made fleece covers, home made wool covers, and super brites. I am so excited that my diapers are so much cuter now! We also haven't had any diaper rashes since we started washing our own.
Does anyone know of a local daycare/babysitter/nanny who is cloth diaper/breastfeeding/etc. friendly?

Hi ladies,

I'm in Sac 95827, I'm cding my 3 month old and have a 7 yr old, 5 yr old and 2 1/2 yr old. I went to one cd class at the Mother's Support Network and was thinking of checking it out again when I get a minute !

[princesslilahsmom]

i missed last weeks- group- i completly forgot, i'm gonna try to come to the one on the 20th though. I'm in carmichael!

[MEMO412]

Hi ladies! I am flying out to CA tomorrow and will be there for a week or so. We'll be staying in Jackson. I wondered if any of you could point me in the direction of some stores that sell cloth diapers? I have a bunch of Bum Genius, I would really like to try some other kinds. I have a toddler so I need bigger ones. Maybe fitteds or some cute covers? I hope someone sees this today, becuase I won't be able to check it once we leave. :) If you can tell me a place (even in Sacramento or the surrounding areas is fine) try to give me semi-specific directions as to how to get there. My MIL will be able to help me find it.

Hey mama, I don't know of anywhere locally that sells fitteds/covers. Sorry, we just don't have a good B&M store here-I think that Goore's sells Bum Genius, and Kushies, but no covers. Have fun, it's rainy here today:)

[MEMO412]

Yeah, I found Goore's online. Is it a good store to check out for general baby stuff and just to shop around? I might have MIL take me there one day. :)

[Sew Crafty Baby]

Just thought I'd let the mama who asked about daycare's that are CD friendly know that Phoenix schools is ok with CD.

[Sew Crafty Baby]

Yes Goore's has those two.. otherwise it's just me here. I'm really trying to get CD info out there in this area. There really are a lot of mama's in the Sac area who want to CD and contact me but other than me there really isn't much. There is the mothers support network.. but they too are limited in items but DO have a class you can take about CD. It's a good start for new mama's.

I do meet up's almost every week or two but no classes as of yet.

[gcherrix]

Hi Mamas!

I just got so excited when I saw this thread!! I live in Roseville (HWY 65 & Pleasant Grove) and cloth diaper my 2yr old and my 4month old. We use GMD PF's, Growing Green OS organic fitted with Imse Vimse Covers, Imse Vimse countours, Bum Genious AIO and Bumkins AIOs.

It's great to find some local moms that share my love for CDing!!

[randifay]

Hi ladies! i'm in roseville. (nak) have 4 boys! youngest 8 months. cd and homebirther too :P good to see some local friendlies :) :thumbsup:

[gcherrix]

Does anyone here go to the MSN cloth diapering support group? I'm looking for ways to meet other mom's in the area and thought this looked like fun :goodvibes:

[Jenette]

I think one of the mama's on here teaches a CD class there :thumbsup:

[Sew Crafty Baby]

Yep - Think someone might teach there that is part of the board. Believe there is only one that teaches the CD class so it might be her. :goodvibes:

[benitaeaton]

Hi Mamas,

I'm in Sac 95827, I have 4 kiddos, ranging from 7ys to 6 months. Maybe we could arrange to meet up at one of the MSN meetings, I showed up for a meeting there and no one else did :(
I'm loving my cd's !!!

[gcherrix]

I would love to meet up! They have the CD support group twice a month... I'm going to have to miss the one next week because we are in the process of moving to Citrus Heights, but we should try to meet at the first one in March. What do you think?

[Sew Crafty Baby]

I could meet up somewhere but probably won't need to go to MSN Cd group since I really am pretty adept at Cding. :giggle:

[AmyLeigh]

I'm in Elk Grove and I would love a meet up....:thumbsup: :lostit:

[Dyimond21]

Wow I am so excited there are some cloth mommas near me. I live in Antelope and spend most of my time Roseville. I am expecting my first baby, a boy. I run a childcare but only work 3 days a week right now since I am in my third trimester. The only place i have seen cloth is at Goores and it is really limited. My mom and I are planning on opening up a store next year that is all about cloth and accessories.

My stash currently
12 GMD yellow edged prefolds
4 NB Mutts Fitteds
8 NB Nanipoos Fitteds
6 Goodmama OS Fitteds

Big Stash of cloth wipes

Still need to purchase covers

[faiths13]

I would love to meet up also, but not at msn. I have gone there alot and decieded I dont really want to hang out there anymore. I have a 1 year old in dipes and another on the way!

[matoryaubz]

I saw a couple people asking about stores selling cloth diapers. Up in Chico, Apple Blossom Baby has them! That store is so awesome!

[lailas_mommy]

so...
we should actually arrange a meet up! everyone is talking about it, but this thread does not get enough action!

[benitaeaton]

Hey Mama's,
I never recieved replies from this thread. So who's up for meeting up ??

[Jenette]

I get every other Monday off ... PM me if you have a meetup

Hey Mama's,
I never recieved replies from this thread. So who's up for meeting up ??

[the first Noël]

just popping in...I'm in Lincoln :) Refreshing to "see" locals!

[protection]

Hello from Downtown Sacramento!

I've attended a MSN group once before, but didnt say anything... i'm shy :P

[delphin]

I'm near Folsom. I have attended a few MSN meetings. GREAT group; HIGHLY recommend it. Unfortunately their hours are really funky and I can't attend the new moms group because I work. Plus it's a trek to get there from where I live. Oh well! Nice to see other moms in cyberspace.

[newmom_1989]

We're in Carmichael just a few blocks away (literally) from Sacramento. We're a fitted and wool family but I love Bumgenius for outings and babysitters.

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE TRIPLETS!!! THAT'S SO EXCITING!!!

Hello! We are in Carmichael too :) Literally across the street from Fair Oaks, and across the other street is Citrus Heights, lol.

I would love to meet new people! i am brand new to the site and havnt quite gotten it all figured out yet.

I have a 10 month old boy who is my first and only love child :)

ya, that's it- just wanted to introduce myself! My name is Nikita btw, im 20 years old.

[gcherrix]

Hi Nikita, welcome to DS!! We live in Citrus Heights off of Greenback.. I also have a 10 month old boy :)

[Sew Crafty Baby]

Ah Fair Oaks.. my old stomping grounds! I grew up there and went to Del Campo. Now I'm in the Folsom/Rancho area.

[nikinic29]

Hey Mammas! I live in Roseville and am always up for meeting new people - Jennifer - I know I've talked to you and ordered from you also! :) You totally ROCK! :)

As for me, I'm a Mamma to one, very precious Cub who will be 10 months on the 21st! I have a serious CD addiction - I really really need a CDA group to help me. LOL! We have everything from prefolds & covers to pockets, AIOs, and fitteds. I love them all! :):giggle2:

Jennifer! I added you to my Buddy list - I've ordered from you - you totally ROCK!

[MyGlorylife]

hey I was thinking in like three weeks maybe we could meet at one of the water/play parks. I know of three in rocklin.

I like whitney ranch but often its just tooooo busy there so we go to the one behind the big green church off lonetree and... is it west oak? well you cant miss the big green church anyway!

anyway game?

[Sew Crafty Baby]

I would love to meet up but Rocklin is a bit too far for me since I'm on partial bed rest with #4 due in a few weeks. A couple of my friends live there and it takes about 45 min. or so.

Maybe after the baby comes I can join in if you all decide to meet up.

Thanks mama.. I try to help out as much as I can with orders and info. :hugs:

[nikinic29]

I would love to meet up! It would just depend on the date and where but I could go anywhere...

Jennifer: Do you need anything? I couldn't imagine being on any kind of bed rest. Wow, #4! Congrats! :)))

[lovepinkgotblue]

I'm new to DS. I'm in Elk Grove. :) I'm new to CDing. I'm wishing I could afford more of the upfront costs. I only have 14 diapers. and i don't think that will be enough because i don't want to do CD laundry every day!

I know CDing is cheaper in the long run, but man is it expensive up front!

Hey lovepinkgotblue! :) Yes, CDing can be costly upfront - but there are plenty of places that you can get deals at or discounts if you want to buy new. Are you just doing prefolds?

[gcherrix]

I'm new to DS. I'm in Elk Grove. :) I'm new to CDing. I'm wishing I could afford more of the upfront costs. I only have 14 diapers. and i don't think that will be enough because i don't want to do CD laundry every day!

Hi Mama,

Have you heard about Miracle diapers? They provide diaper (by loan) to quailfying low income families. www.miraclediapers.org

Click on "Reservations" at the top of the page and then scroll down to the bottom to add an appointment to your basket. They base it on financial need and if you qualify you will pay $20 to cover all shipping cost (return shipping included) and $5 for each additional child that needs CD's. I believe they provide 12 diapers for children under 12months and 9 diapers for children older then that and are not yet PLing.

I hope it works for you :)

Cloth diapering is so worth it! :)

:yeahthat: I never thought about that! Thanks Mama for being in the know! :)

Hi mamas! I'm new here, I'm in the Rio Linda/Elverta area. I have 3 boys, the youngest is 7 months. Nice to see other local CDing moms, my sister is the only other one I know IRL! Everyone thinks I'm nuts when I tell them I have my baby in cloth!

[nikinic29]

Hey CrazyBoysMamma! :) You're close to me! :) I'm in Roseville near the border of Elverta :) I don't think I've had anyone say anything to me that I CD, probably because anyone who knows me KNOWS that if I decide to do something, then I'm doing it!

hey I was thinking in like three weeks maybe we could meet at one of the water/play parks. I know of three in rocklin.

I like whitney ranch but often its just tooooo busy there so we go to the one behind the big green church off lonetree and... is it west oak? well you cant miss the big green church anyway!

anyway game?

Love that place.. we were just there Sunday for about 3 hours. My kids always have a great time there when we meet up with a girlfriend of mine who lives near the golf course.

I would love to meet up! It would just depend on the date and where but I could go anywhere...

Jennifer: Do you need anything? I couldn't imagine being on any kind of bed rest. Wow, #4! Congrats! :)))

I am good but thanks for asking. :hugs:
Bed rest is done now.. just waiting for this little bugger to come out. 10 days to go. :yay:

Oh, wow, you are close! I prolly drive right by you every day taking my oldest to school in Roseville! Yeah, the people that know me. Know when I decide to do something, that's it, I'm doing it. It's more people that I meet that are shocked that anyone still uses cloth. I'm trying to spead CDing like a disease! LOL I converted my sister and now I'm working on my neighbor.

Hi all!

I am in Greenhaven... Just had #2 -- she was born at home 10 pounds 4 oz, 22 in... I was in labor for about 40 min. Urgh. Thats another story. =)

So now I have two in diapers. So fortunately I was thinking ahead and got lots of one-size diaper covers and pockets. They work pretty well - some better than others as one would expect. The ones that worked well on #1 (tall and skinny) are not working as well on #2 (thighs. She's got thighs.).

Yeah everyone thinks we are nuts for the cloth diapering. Honestly though, outside of a few more loads of laundry, even having two in diapers doesn't feel like that much work to me. ~shrug~

Yep :) That's me! I was sort of hoping you'd show up at her Pampered Chef party, but I realized it was probably too soon for you. :) How are you holding up?

Hi...I am Jamie - I just found this 'board'. I live in Plumas Lake but I work in Rancho Cordova. My daughter Jera is 6 and my son Jaxon is 4 mo. My husband Jesse works in Rsvl. I started cd'ing with my son and I wish I had started with Jera. My stash is OS pockets (BG, Babyland, Coolbaby, Wonderworks, Wonderoos, HH) and PF with X small covers still. I need to move up a size in PF and covers but I just haven't yet. I love the BG and it is my new love. I almost want to sell everything else and just have a stash of those.

Nice to 'meet' everyone. People look at me like I am crazy sometimes for using CD.
