Whee!! I just got a slew of 'em! I’m now covered in little hearts.

The ones I sent out pale in comparison with these nifty ones.

Thanks, **scout, Scuba\_Ben, SexyWriter, twickster, and Pandora**!!

Gawrsh! I would have been happy even if no one sent me one, because I enjoyed sending mine out. 🙂

Half of mine went out today; half yesterday. You folks do realize you’re helping me make up for all the Charlie Brown Valentines Days I had as a kid, don’t you? I’m even looking forward to checking my mail.

OK, I’ve been fighting a nasty head cold and trying to wrap up a couple of other paperwork-intensive projects, so I’m afraid my cards may be just a _leeeeeetle_ bit late, but I promise they’re coming! Don’t despair!

I sent all mine out today, they will be late so bear with me. They’re not made by hand but they ARE filled to the brim with warm fuzzies and good cheer! I’ve gotten three so far, thanks **vivalostwages** , Irrverent Tone\*\*, and **scout1222**!!! This is a wonderful idea!

Two more were waiting for me at home after a #@\*$ of a long day at work.

**Earthpuppy** , your valentine was the first one I got too! I thought it was _amazingly_ clever! I liked the envelope too. Thanks!

**Quasi** , you take care of yourself, and let somebody know if you need anything. Dallas, GA isn’t THAT far from Duluth, GA.

Drop me a line… the rate I am going it will be St. Patrick’s Day before anyone gets anything from me anyway!

I live in a backwater… There is NO place in town that prints ordinary B& W photos… so the negs went off Mon hopefully will be back tomorrow. Then scanned on the computer and taken to Wal Mart to make digital cards with the computer there…Hopefully I’ll get them off ON Valentine’s

Lordy…

Thanks! For the cards!  
Anew bookmark from **Twickster** (she knows I read in the tub so she makes sure they’re waterproof)  
Loads of pretty confetti that went ALL over the school bus when I opened the cards on our lovely pot holes ( no road only holes)  
Pandora, I have a question about your RL name… I’ll email you!

I received my first two today - thanks, **Pandora** and **Archergal!** It’s so fun to anticipate something in the mailbox besides bills, and mine should be reaching most of y’all tomorrow.

I mailed mine this morning. My SO could only find pink envelopes in the right size, so my immasculation begins now. I upped the ante by putting sticker hearts on the outside of the envelope. Guys got small ones, girls got big fancy ones. I’m just as not-gay as **NoClueBoy** is. 😉

I have received three so far: **Archergal** , **FairyChatMom** , and **LurkMeister**. Thanks! I hope mine will make it by the 14th. I apologize to **Steve Wright** and **Sunspace** , yours will probably be late. Sorry, no undies were sent - maybe next year.

Yaaay! I got 3 today! Thanks, **Theo P., Scuba Ben, and Featherlou**!

Most of mine went out yesterday, and the rest went out today. If they’re not there by the 14th, they’re not late: I just decided to extend Valentine’s day, is all. Spreading out the love, doncha know. 😉
