Hai! (LOLcat infected speech)
I would like to compile a list of addresses for people who would like to participate in a holiday card exchange this year.
If you would like to be included on the list please PM me your name and address. I will be sending out the final list in December- please have your info to me by December 7th.
Happy Holidays!!! :)

I am looking for addresses also. Turns out, I didn't do a good job in saving anything for the cards. Resend them through PM!!

Will do. Once I have collected them all I will send a compiled list to the participants so you have them all in one place.

Hehe, I wish I could be a holiday card sender-type, but it's never (cough*cough) in the cards for me. I'm thinking once things settle down and I'm done with school and this part-time crazy hours business I might be a car person, but it's too early to tell... ;)
Have fun with the cards - I'm jealous!
For us newishbes, how does the card exchange work? Can anyone participate or is it by invite?

Everyone and anyone can participate. PM Nephy your snail mail address and she'll compile it. Then around the 7th, she will submit all on the list a copy of that list.
:)
Oh yes, and everytime a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.

...and don't worry. I'm not going to misuse any addresses.
I love doing these things :)

I've been terrible about sending cards in the past few years, and I'm always whining about how letter-writing, etc, is a lost art in the Electronic Age. Count me in, and great idea!

I would love to receive, but I wouldn't be sending any so that wouldn't be fair.
Kevy...it's better to give than receive, throw your addy in the pot...let 'us' decide if it matters that you won't be sending them out...

I agree, MS. I won't be sending the cheap bastard one, but I'm sure someone will take pity on him.;)
(Just kidding, Kevy! I do agree though- I send cards to people all the time without expecting reciprocity. I also get cards and for whatever reason I might not send back one, but I hope that the author is like me and doesn't have expectations. Real life and the busy-ness of the holidays kind of gets in the way of things sometimes.)

Please- if you want to give and/or receive cards- please send me your address.
The more the merrier!

I'm going to post "Happy Holidays" on the board, so I'm totally covered. :cool:

This is a sweet idea. It's been years since I sent out Christmas Cards, which I did for decades ... to about 50 people or couples per year. It was nice, but it's one of the time-consuming and expensive things - - like Christmas shopping for 30 -- that I ditched from my holidaytime to make room for personal enjoyment of the season.
And I can't look back.
I hope that's not too Scroogified of me, and I wish you all a Happy Holiday of Your Choice, and much success with the card exchange!

I thought it was "every time you hear a bell, another angel goes to hell." Hmmmm. :p

Count me in also. Did it last year in MC, but that could be a little overwhelming this year to say the least.

can you hear my bitching from there?
Ok- *sigh* working on it-hold that thought

Okies- the first 5 on the list worked fine- the last 2 on the list (not including me) worked fine- the middle 5 kept getting messed up so I sent them each seperately. Hopefully that fixed it-
Anyone else want on the list (GC I am SO looking at you)?

Hmm, have not deleted PM's for weeks because of this project so I know I did not delete it. Maybe it had the same problem my PM's did in the last few days.
Well- got it now and dispersed it to the masses!:D
