    Be glad that's the only place it's ended up...
    It's not.

    And no, Irv, I merely reiterate for effect . . .

            Question - what happens if people don't get our cards? I sent out 35 but according to the tally only 19 have been received. Do I have to send out another 16 or something?

              Naw....just means the others haven't been received yet, or haven't been tallied yet.

                Well, from an "administrative" perspective, as long as a reasonable number of people tallied them I'll assume you sent them all out. Some people don't keep up with the tallies as well as they should. (Shame, shame!) And some people just tally them all up towards the end. Of course there's always the possibility of getting lost or delayed in the mail but that's hardly your fault.

                While we're on the topic, I'll just remind y'all that you have until February 1st to tally your cards.

                  I'll admit that I'm a little behind on my tallies. I really will get them done soon.

                  Y'all are such wonderful crazies!
                  Agreed! I'm having loads of fun with this. The front door is covered with awesome cards (some fun or beautiful professional cards and some highly impressive homemade ones), and I've gotten several ornaments and a bookmark.

                  I've also been getting cards from family and from business contacts like my insurance agent and the real estate agent who sold us our hours. What's weird is that, when I see the return address on those, I'm almost disappointed, like, "Aw, it's not a Customers Suck card. It's just from Uncle Dave." I like cards from family and friends, but these are more fun.

                  I'm just slightly paranoid about the impending glitter bomb I've been hearing about...

                  Also, my daughter loves the Hawaiian shirt the best. She wants to take it to her kindergarten class and show everyone the present Mommy got.

                  And a right cool and colorful HawaiianShirt - that's too pretty to put on the tree. I think I'll make a place on the mantle.
                  Glad y'all are liking the shirts. I'm way too picky about store-bought cards, so I decided to make my own again.

                      Today I got cards from MistressOfTangents and Amina.

                      Amina - I am very glad, too!

                              If it's anything like the square glittery card from the UK that I got, then it's from MistressOfTangents. Got it a couple days ago here though I'm just now getting around to opening them (between family, CS, and customers, I've had to hang a second string from my ceiling to display them. At this rate, I'm going to probably end up with three lines of cards hanging from the ceiling this year.)
