Just finished digging my car out of 11 inches of snow. If I got mail today, I ain't going back out there to get it now.

I was feeling bad that I haven't sent mine out, but after seeing a few other posts from people who are in the same boat, I don't feel quite so horrible. Will be getting them out tomorrow, hopefully.
I have no excuse other than a crazy hectic month and a bit of depression that has kept me from doing a lot of the fun stuff I normally enjoy at Christmas.
I have received cards from:
csquared

Kittish
Pixelated

DGoddessChardonnay
Ironclad Alibi
KuariKaydrith
Kit-Ginevra

Someone who appears to go by the name of Ralph?? it's a bit of a squiggle... your card was of a manger in a circle with gold writing around it...
I shall hunt down more-it seems they all got packed up with the house cards,so the entire family's got mixed in together.The Copyright Monster has made me tell you that my avatar is courtesy of the wonderful Alice XZ.And you don't want to annoy the Copyright Monster.Comment

I think I have just about everyone's now. I got Eric Kei's today. I'm leaving again in less than two weeks and won't be back until sometime in October. But, hey, I should be able to sign up for the 2018 card exchange.

And another one brings Eric up to three.
Now if only the USPS can find Kit's card...Comment

Kit's card is always the last one I get.
There are a few people who haven't posted who they got cards from...while it's not an absolute requirement, it would be nice to see more green...Last edited by BookstoreEscapee; 12-24-2020, 10:37 PM.I don't go in for ancient wisdom

It's because it has to swim across this big ocean,competing with all the other Christmassy cards and New Year cards making their way across.And because I count my coins and send it economy standard,it swims along in the slow lane... but it makes it there eventually

I got a card from EricKei today! And yes, the USPS does seem to be having difficulties with Kit's cards (thought you guys meant ME for a second), as well as a few others in my case.

I too received a card from EricKei today.
I have yet to receive only two cards from my fellow card exchange participants. According to the card chart nobody else has either. Oh well, that always seems to be the case every year. There's always a few no-shows.
Now to start designing a card for next Christmas."I don't have to be petty. The Universe does that for me."Comment

I'd say maybe drop a PM to them if there's been no word by this weekend or so
