    Ironclad Alibi (that card presented a challenge; mom tapes all cards up on the wall and she couldn't do that with yours!)
    Maybe I should have included a bottle of glue?

        • I also put all the cards on the wall, including the puzzle one. But I taped the puzzle together on the back, and I used poster putty to attach them to the wall. So that worked well for the puzzle, too.

Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."

          • I got BSE's card today!

            The envelope was open; not sure if it was the glue on the main flap or what, as one of the side flaps was torn. But hey, it got here intact an' it's purdy ^_^

                • I can't find csquared's. Most likely, because there were different mailpeople delivering mail, that it was not delivered.

                  • Sorry that I'm the absolute worst about tallying my cards. Holidays are always the most hectic time of year (between the biggest deadline at work always being the Friday before Christmas and this year dealing with stress by proxy with the family court bullshit that my in-laws are dealing with). In no particular order, the cards that I have sitting in my Christmas card stack:
                    • Dreamstalker
                    • DepecheModeFan (like the little star things, amazed my dogs haven't destroyed them)
                    • Pixelated
                    • CSquared (very pun-y)
                    • Bookstore Escapee
                    • Eireann (I feel you cold bird)
                    • Irving Patrick Freleigh (my son is obsessed with the Grinch, you made his day)
                    • Ghel
                    • Android Kaeli (all cookies are meant to be on the dark side)
                    • Ironclad Alibi (I haven't even tried at the puzzle yet)
                    • Kit-Ginevra (to quote my son, that seal looks sus).
                    • Quest Diagnostics (very weird Christmas Card, it said I owe them money, do I owe any of you money and I just forgot about it?)
                    (That last one is a joke at my husband's expense, I told him to bring me the stack of Christmas cards and for some reason he also picked up a bill and handed it to me as well).

                      • I should also point out, there was a one week period when I was not at home and my mom was collecting our mail... so it is entirely possible that we got cards from EricKei and TaxGuyCarl and they got lost in with my mom's mail.

                          Ha, that probably would have gotten it 'detained' by the USPS for suspicious material (or around here it might have been stolen for the glue).
