AdminAssistant
Morgana
Plaidman
Iradney
OneFang
"Steve"
"Monica"
"Katie"
Irate Guy (And yes, Iowa IS the most boring state)
DesignFox
Irving Patrick Freleigh (LOL)

I love the ones I got so far!

I'm not sure how I'll display lal my cards in a way the animals wont destroy them. For now they're in a nice red box. I kept the envelopes too for the stamps. Some are very pretty.

I've been slipping the back of the card into the envelope so I can display the fronts and still keep them together.

I just got back in town today, and there were bunches of cards for me - yay!!!

Oh, IrateGuy - Rock Chalk!

I WAS going to mail out at least the international cards today, but the opportunity came up to get a couple of kittens for Becks*, so...sorry. They WILL be mailed out next weekend.

Forgive me?





*When I post the pictures of the kittens, I'll explain a bit more.

Never got the second list, but can sent a card to the return address on the card I got.

Huh. Maybe your email spammed it. For some reason the first test email came through to my inbox fine, the second email with the list went to my spam box, and the third with the corrected list went to my inbox again.

Oh well, as long as you have the address

So, I just got back from the post office from mailing off my cards and I need to apologize to a few people who received square cards in square, red envelopes--sorry about the postage! Because they are irregular sized I had to put 2 extra 10cent stamps on them. Plus, on some of those envelopes I used last years' teddy bear holiday stamps, which means I had to use an extra 1cent stamp as well. So, some cards, all USA cards, look like there's a helluva lot of postage on them (4 stamps total), but it's just the right amount. Trust me.

JuniorMintz - Did you put your name on the list.. Can't find it. But thanks.

Are you working from the first or second version of the list? JAM wasn't on the first one but sent out a corrected list a couple days later. PM her (or me, if you want) for the address

[Eben56]

I can't decide which card I like the best so I'll just like 'em all.

Got three yesterday (is it bad that I work for the government and I still didn't know if we'd get mail service the day after Thanksgiving? )

DesignFox (with polar bears AND horses. Love it!)
Boggles (I know you couldn't know this but Eeyore is my favorite Winnie the Pooh character! Sweet! Also, the Malificent w/the apple stamp is way cool. Methinks someone likes Disney! )
Irving Patrick Freleigh (funny card)

I sat down and wrote out my cards last night with some wine.....who am I kidding?? It took me to two hours to write everything out and 2.5g lasses of wine. I ran out of free address labels (courtesy of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer foundation that I donated to sometime earlier this year) so the last 11 return addresses on the list are written out. I haven't handwritten so much since.....well, last year's card exchange. I will send them out today and hopefully they'll start reaching people next week.

Friday's holiday goodness came from:

Irate Guy *hiss* lol

[Horsetuna]

Hee. Familiar Horsies.

I got IFP's as well today. I love the cards. I have plans already for next year.

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

Today's card came from DesignFox. Horsies!
