Holi-daze fast approaching! Card Exchange?
 
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!!! :)

libraryvixen 11-12-2007 11:00 AM

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!!

Nephythys 11-12-2007 11:06 AM

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.

:)

blueerica 11-12-2007 11:57 AM

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?

Gemini Cricket 11-12-2007 12:37 PM

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.

Nephythys 11-12-2007 01:01 PM

Bingo- and GC is my elf :p

Snowflake 11-12-2007 01:04 PM

Include me in, I've already got some addys, but will happily accept more.

Nephythys 11-12-2007 01:28 PM

*clap* *clap*

...and don't worry. I'm not going to misuse any addresses.

I love doing these things :)

wendybeth 11-12-2007 01:31 PM

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!

katiesue 11-12-2007 01:36 PM

I'm in

Kevy Baby 11-12-2007 01:57 PM

I would love to receive, but I wouldn't be sending any so that wouldn't be fair.

~MS~ 11-12-2007 02:00 PM

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...

wendybeth 11-12-2007 02:08 PM

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.)

Nephythys 11-12-2007 02:16 PM

Please- if you want to give and/or receive cards- please send me your address.

The more the merrier!

Disneyphile 11-12-2007 02:44 PM

I have boxes of really awesome cards to send, but never find the time to send them. :(

Cadaverous Pallor 11-12-2007 08:06 PM

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

innerSpaceman 11-12-2007 10:41 PM

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

I hear that was in the Director's cut of It's a Wonderful Life.
:D

JWBear 11-13-2007 12:13 AM

I'm in.

wolfy999 11-13-2007 09:15 AM

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

Nephythys 12-02-2007 12:07 PM

*bump*

Ok! Last week to get involved in the first LoT card exhange! I will send out final lists on the 7th!

PM me your name and address - Cheers!

Nephythys 12-07-2007 06:52 AM

*final bump*

Last day to get involved! Send your PM's!

wolfy999 12-07-2007 09:04 PM

So Nephy...where's the list? Today's the 7th!

I know I'm being pushy but I'm on a roll with the Holiday Card thingy.

Nephythys 12-08-2007 08:42 AM

Getting it out today- cheers!

Nephythys 12-08-2007 08:59 AM

ok- all sent out. Had some small glitches but everyone should have the full list.

If anyone wants to join in late let me know and I will send it out as well-

:)

Ponine 12-10-2007 04:02 PM

I sent a PM on 11/15 to be included in the list, but I did not in turn get a list of folks...
did I miss a step?

Check your PM

Nephythys 12-11-2007 06:29 AM

I sent it twice to you Ponine- but something keeps glitching the PM list-

Looks like Kevy has you covered but I need to check in with everyone else-

I didn't get a list either.
:)

Nephythys 12-11-2007 09:26 AM

can you hear my bitching from there?

Ok- *sigh* working on it-hold that thought

on edit- wait a sec....where is YOUR address GC dearest! Don't YOU want cards too?

Nephythys 12-11-2007 09:58 AM

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

You do know that you can only PM 5 people at a time - no?

CoasterMatt
JWBear
Ponine

JWBear 12-11-2007 12:14 PM

I got mine just fine.
