skype

Hello, this is Stacey. Megan and I are working on a Skype schedule for you guys. Our goal is to make sure that each family has a chance to chat with their kid[s] while I am here this month. Because electricity here is very unreliable, we will be using the gas-powered generator for power. We are setting up schedule of 30-minute blocks where the kids are free, and we can have electricity without turning the generator on and off.

We have tried to keep the times slightly varied to account for your work schedules and time differences. If NONE of the blocks work for you let us know and we will try to make other arrangements.

*The time slots are referring to the Eastern Time Zone.

Hi Stacey and Megan. Can Steven and Belle have the Jan. 15th slot at 4pm. They have been begging to talk to the kids at the O. They miss them so much. If that doesn't work, just squeeze us in after all the parents talk to their kiddos. Thanks!!

Hi Stacey & Megan,

Could we have the Jan. 15th slot at 3:30 p.m. to talk to Reece?
If that doesn't work, we could do either of the available slots the following Thursday the 22nd.
We can't wait for Reece to meet his new baby sister! :o)

Roxanne said...

Hi Stacey and Megan,
We are Jim and Roxanne Malley, Dave's parents. We would love to see Dave even though he doesn't really talk. Our kids want to be here too so I'm trying to choose a time after school. We could take any time on Monday 26th or Sunday the 25th at 8:00 pm. We have never used skype but if you can walk us through it, I am sure we can figure it out.

Thank You So Much!
Jim and Roxanne Malley

hey everyone. i've updated the list again. there are a few slots that were requested by more than one person. if you are not on the list and you requested a time please try and pick another one. i gave it to the person who requested it first.

Abbie said...

Hey Stacey,

For each of our time slots - are we to call you or will you call us when our kiddos are ready? Do you need each of our skype addresses or do you already have them? Also what is the skype address you will be using, we will need to add it to our skype accounts.

stacey said...

my skype address is smkandel5.

Michelle said...
