I put mine the the mail box last night. Some of you may be getting yours a wee bit late but, as I said last year: late valentines are good – it makes the love last longer!
This is always so much fun! I got my first bunch yesterday – Harry Potter, glitter, confetti and a cool bookmark (good idea, Twickster. I stick all my valentines up on the mantel so everyone who comes over can see how popular I am…
Most of mine went out Tuesday, and the final 7 were finished last night. But I left them at home today! I may be able to get them in the mail box before pick-up tonight, otherwise, the “last” 7 people on the list will be getting theirs a little late.
I told my husband that I’m going to take down the Christmas cards and put up my Valentines!
I so agree… thats why I used it in a story I wrote last year.
Blonde ? Are you the card from Texas with the name that is so AMAZINGLY close to a male singer’s that I looked at it and said “No way! Why would HE be writing me?” Bet you get loads of jokes about that one!
from under a ton of heart-shaped, shiny confetti comes a happy voice
WOW, folks!! Today, I got valentines from: Theo P, ScubaBen, earthpuppy, Pandora, FairyChatMom, Blonde (you scare me, tee hee!),romansperson (I soooo needed a bookmark, thanks!), and earthpuppy (WOW, pretty!)… thank you all for the Valentine vibes! Next year, I’m making my own, darn it all! Don’t egg my house because of my storebought cards, k?
I love you all and mine are still going to be late.
Wow! I am amazed at the creativity of my fellow Dopers! earthpuppy – Wow! How gorgeous! Which isn’t to slight archergal, Andros_X (whose contribution I opened a wee bit gingerly), scout1222 (really? your very favorite out of all the thousands and thousands of us? ), sexywriter, lurkmeister, Blonde, and FCM. Plus romansperson, whose contribution arrived yesterday.
Okay! I bought more stamps today – I’ll fire up the Valentine-Making Factory tonight and get going on the couple of dozen that I haven’t done yet…
OK, all of mine went in the mail today! I cannot count, so the last three people on my list got storebought cards with good wishes, not the personalized cards that everyone else got. Sorry!!!
I"m so happy! I cleared a shelf for them, and have a lovely valentines display to look at that just cheers me up! Thanks, everyone!!!

What a treat! Thanks to you all. (My hubby doesn’t know what to think… he thinks I’m having some sort of “extracurricular activity” with all these folks!)
Thank youarchergal, twickster, SanguineSpider, andromansperson. I had a lot of fun making them!
I dragged my sick, achy self out of bed this morning, expecting to find bills and junk mail in the mailbox, and instead I had NINE VALENTINES! Holy cow, that was great!
So is everyone getting a little tired of receiving all their valentines so promptly? I mean, really, it’s so predictable to actually get your valentines on or before Valentine’s Day, right? Want a little more variety to it? Well you’re in luck!
Mine are going to be late. I promise they’ll be in the mail tomorrow!
Yippee! I received five more today. Thanks so much to Pandora, dantheman, Scuba_Ben, and Averie537. Oh, and NoClueBoy, thanks for the compliment, you really know how to flatter a girl.
My SO sent mine out on Tuesday, so people should be getting them soon.
I love Valentine’s Day!
FCM* - cute kitten! Steve Wright - whose picture is that? dantheman* - Harry Potter Blonde - love to you, too SexyWriter - did you make that? very cool Pandora - very pretty name Scuba_Ben - looks familiar (identical to one of the four I sent out) Avarie537 - cute chick!

This was a great idea; definitely going to do it again next year!
*who wasn’t on my list - fortunately I have extras I can mail out tomorrow
This day has definitely ended better than it began.
My illness that has laid me low the past week is pretty much gone.
I passed my performance review at work today, so I have a job for another year!
And…
When I got home, I found six valentines in my mailbox! :eek: :eek:
Thanks to Featherlou, LurkMeister, Avarie537, Pandora, Theo P, and earthpuppy! And the three from yesterday, from Lynn, FairyChatMom, and Steve Wright!
