The pile grows ever larger! I no longer remember who I’ve thanked and who I haven’t, so just consider yourselves thanked, all of you. I’m tempted to throw the cards in the air and let them fall down on me like snow, but I’d probably get a corner in the eye. And that would sort of ruin the mood. ---

Hi everyone, I just wanted to write a little note to apologize to the people on my list. While I did send out about a third of my valentines, and have the rest of them minus addresses and envelopes, I wasn’t able to send them out ☹ I won’t bore you all with the details but I got hit by a car as I was crossing the street (in a crosswalk no less) at school. To say the least, V-day has been the least of my worries lately. Thank you for the valentines you’ve sent and sorry again that I haven’t had time to send out all of yours. Kitty ---

In other news, I got a valentine from **Blonde** on Saturday! Even though there’s no postal delivery! These valentines are unstoppable! Next thing we know, these valentines are going to start boring their way through bedrock to get to their destinations! (It was on top of the mailbox unit in the lobby today. Looks like it got misfiled in someone else’s mailbox yesterday… but still…) ---

Thanks for today’s valentines from **Dantheman, Aries (nice job, by the way), and Stargazer**. Glad you folks liked the funny store-boughten cards. I gave my mom the one with the dorky matching outfits. 😃 ---

Got eight more Friday and Saturday: **Misstee** - shredded paper heart **sheepi83** - ewe sweety! (and I’ve never seen a sequin “I love you” before) **Punkyova** - nice photo **Horseflesh** - like everone said - WAAAY too much time on your hands!\* **NoClueBoy** - Daffy! **DirkGntly** - very nice card **rocking chair** - took a moment to identify that “signature” **SanguineSpider** - finally figured out who “The Spider” was 😃 Definitely made my day; and apparently there are more to come! \*and thanks for the note. ---

With very nice penmanship! **ultraviolet** - my first Canadian! Whee! Very nice, btw **RockingChair** - cool custom card with a wicked cool signature **Sheepi83** - a really neat totally custom card. And why does everyone want to SWAK me? 😕 **Seige** - thinks I’m a weanie. A weinie DOG!! 😉 And a VERY personal note. (Wait til a certain party joins up, dog lovin’ lady!) ---
