Have Any Of You Gotten Your KT Cards?

16 years ago

I got two in today's mail and one the other day. Thanks Stoney Baloney, Janie_ga, and Lynn D. I had hoped for a note too :) Has any one else gotten cards yet?

Your Opinions? Have safety switches gotten too extreme?

"Stupid people will always manage to break something or hurt themselves or someone else." For every moron out there that rides around with their baby on their lap there are plenty of smart people that occasionally make mistakes. Personally I sometimes let my mind wander and maybe that label or that lever I pull is enough to keep my brain on track. Maybe I should have one of you perfect people that never make a mistake operate my OPE to save me and my family from my imperfect self. Go ahead and take off the switches, levers and labels and let all the stupid people chop themselves up so they don't polute your perfect gene pool.

* Have You Ever Gotten Your Credit Card Account Numbers Stolen? *
Q

I had a bunch of credit cards opened in my name some years ago. I had rental property and had a Centruy 21 agent manage it for me. Apparently, since the mortgage statement went to that office, so did a bunch of those free offers for credit cards. The receptionist opened the accounts got the cards, and just kept paying the minimum payments on the cards. It went on for over a year and was only discovered when she went away on her honeymoon and my agent started opening the mail with my name on it--a bunch of Visa bills with over $20,000 total charges! This girl had charged her whole wedding and honeymoon in my name! The hardest part was cancelling the cards--when I called Visa they wouldn't believe I was me because the girl had given them _her_ mother's maiden name, information of course that I could not supply! It was pretty stupid, really, she thought she would never be caught, said she every intention of paying off the cards eventually. Stupid criminal. Stupid credit card companies. We all paid for that one. And yes, I do check my credit report now!

I don't need it....nothing....don't need anything more.... BUT....today I went to the $ store because I needed several gift bags....and while I was there...I just had to walk around...and bought 3 glass pinch bowls...I was getting along just fine with custard cups...but... AND I got a new dishwasher last week...but that was because my 22 year old trusty Maytag died. I know better then to buy one of the newer Maytags (the ex CEO was a very good friend and next door neighbor and when he made all those trips to China and Japan, I figured it out!).. Anyhow I got a Jenn Aire....I know they are in the business of down draft vent systems....but it's a hotsy totsy model, likely last years but I made the dealer an offer...prepared to up it....and he said OK. Surprise! But its' not "fun" in the way that a new stock pot would be...I still am trying to figure out the best way to load the thing! Also got 2 new YeehaH stoves for the church...I bucked the people who said why do we need to spend that for stoves.....and I splained why!! Because I cook on them and you don't! I think I need new potholders.....mine are beyond awful...and people give me oven mits and I feel clumsy using them, so I save them for the grill. I Have a fairly nice assortment of Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's day potholders...but I need some simple every day ones that don't have burned corners and the stuffing hanging out. Linda C

Got mine! Have you gotten yours?

Glenda...the second stimulous is in the form of less $$ withheld from paychecks...people who have jobs will take home a little bit more. Since those of us who get SS have no tax $$ withheld, the "stimulus" we get is lump sum of $250. How it gets to you depends on how you get your monthly SS money. If you get a paper check, you get your $250 in the mail, a paper check. If your monthly SS is automatically deposited in a bank account, your $250 will be deposited in that account. Since these $250 "stimulus checks" are going only to those who are on SS or SSI or SSD rolls, the government is using the SS payment method to deliver it.

I have three! This is my third year, and each year I'm excited to see the cards come in from all over the world. My world is getting smaller - sometimes that's a great thing.

Happy Holidays to ALL.

Sue, I loved your letter, too. I've had four so far, and will get mine out this weekend. We are having our annual Advent Tea at church tomorrow, so have been busy with that.

I have got about 3, I think, am working on something to put in mine. Hope all enjoy. Whether they are homemade or not, I appreciate all. Mine are not homemade this year. Too many things happening, like sickness, end of year stuff for a couple of offices, deaths of friends etc.

Mine are going out tomorrow. I wanted to make some or something to go in them, but I just didn't get it done in time. I know they need to go out early.

I received 2 cards yesterday but I haven't had the chance to open them yet to see who they are from. I finally got out to buy cards today and will get mine off this week after I get some stamps.

It is fun receiving and sending out cards isn't it?

I've received four, and they're hanging on the fireplace mantel. My cards went out yesterday, except for nookie's. Don't know what the postage should be, but will research that today. This is really fun!

I sent mine out Wednesday. I guess I should have put a not in them but didn't it. I have received a few.
I always try to have a good message in mine and like this years. I too have done the card exchange for a lot of years.
I love my KT friends and even the ones i didn't send a card..
