Are you ready to sign up for the Christmas Card Exchange?

8 years ago

For those of you who are not familiar with how we do this, here are the rules.

If you want to participate, please email me your name,
address and email address. I will end the sign up November 26. At that time I
will break down the list into groups of about 10, depending on how many
participate. You MUST to send a card to each person in the group in which your
name appears. After that, if you wish to send a card to anyone/everyone else on
the rest of the list, you may do so. Please try to have your cards mailed by December 4, so that everyone has time to receive them and decorate with them. Send me a message with your screen name, real name, address, and email, if you want to participate. I will email you to let you know I have received your message. I will NOT share your information with anyone who is not participating in the card exchange!!!

Now, what I need someone to do is to tell me/everyone, how to send me a private message thru Houzz. I don't want to put my email out here for the world to see, and I don't want anyone else's information out here, either. I know there is a way, I just haven't needed it, or had time to explore to find it.

Thank you Texas_Gem. I knew I had it turned on when we were Garden Web, and hoped I still had it set up that way here.

I went into the PO today, had to send a cd of pictures and had no idea how much postage for it, so I asked about postage for the exchange. I was told that they can only raise the price of stamps once a year, and they had been denied raising it for this year already, so it won't go up before Christmas. US to Canada is 80 cents US postcards are 29 cents US to most of Europe is 98 cents, depending. I don't know what it will be for those out of the US sending to the US, and he couldn't tell me. Hope this helps those intending to sign up. Heather, I missed having you sign up last year! Tami

My Christmas Wish 2007 In recent years, my parents health (esp. my mother) has deteriorated. I recently moved 600 miles closer just to be with them. I fear this may be the last Christmas for one or both of them. They really LOVE Christmas cards! As I was rummaging through the attic to retrieve their Christmas decorations, I found Christmas cards they had received from 30 years ago. They throw NONE away. I was trying to think of something really special to do for them for Christmas and I came up with this idea. If you have the Christmas spirit, and want to do something nice for someone (who doesn't?) - please take the time to send my parent's a Christmas card. Christmas was always a magical time of year for our family and I truly want to make this magical for the both of them. Please! God Bless You and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas. Address is as follows: Donald and Betty Coleman 704 Seattle Drive Lexington Kentucky 40503 Please forward this to all your family/friends/coworkers. God Bless!!!

Wanda, just added you. Don't worry. You aren't late! And I enjoy doing this. I have 14 of us signed up, including me. As that is all we have, unless all of you want me to split the list into 2 groups, I will just leave it as one group, and we send to everyone. Let me know if you want it split, please!

Anyone else? I am sorry for not posting again recently. DH surprised me. He has vacation time that needs to be used by mid Dec. He usually works every other weekend. So he has been taking Monday and Tuesday off those weekends, turning it into a 4 day weekend. Well, this past week became a 6 day weekend! Yay! We got in a few extra days in the RV with the unexpected beautiful and warm weather we had.

Anyone else want to join us exchanging Christmas cards? You still have until Thanksgiving to sign up!

Here is a reminder for the card exchange. I was out of town for the weekend, then found out that DGD is in the hospital on our way home, then Dr, appointments, ect, so I have not been on the computer. I have barely kept up with the important emails, and still have 150 to go thru! I know what I will be doing this weekend. In fact, today is the first I have been on the computer at all, anything for email has been done on my phone.

Toni, I did get your message, forgot I couldn't just reply and did, of course I got the failure email! Sorry. No you haven't missed the list.

One more week to sign up. I will probably separate the list into groups on Wed, night next week, and then send them out. I will be having the kids & grands Thurs evening for dinner.

If we don't get any more people, do you want all one group, or do you want me to break the list in half? There are 17 including me. Let me know what you think.

Mary, thank you. Arriana came home last evening. DD sent me a message, but I didn't get it. She is still getting breathing treatments every 4 hours, but is doing better.

An update on DGD Arriana. She has graduated to every 6 hours for her breathing treatments! She is almost back to her usually sassy, funny, sweet self.

Glad she is doing better, Tami! Just got back from getting my Christmas cards for this year. I also had a blast in the Dollar Tree, Wal-Mart and Dollar General looking for little stocking stuffers. We're having a secret santa gift swap at work. I also got some tiny stockings for everyone who's participating to put on their lockers for little pre-big gift exchange gifts. It was fun trying to find little inexpensive things for the tiny stockings. I love Christmas.
