They were supposed to be picked up at 1:00 p.m. Theyā€™ll be the ones covered in stamps. For those of you who are running late: that is considered an extension of the Valentineā€™s season. šŸ™‚ ---

My valentines are already and WILL go in the mail tomorrow. My valentines may require some assembly (some, but not all of them will). Received ones from **Atomic Mama** , **freckafree** , and someone else (canā€™t remember at the moment). ---

**acctogo** and I ( **Atomic Mama** ) thank all the wonderful Dopers who sent us Valentine cards and clever goodies. It made ā€œour dayā€ even more special ā€“ February 14 is our 3rd anniversary + 1 day of getting engaged. Chuck proposed to me late (but before midnight on) Feb. 13 when we were living in Alaska, musing about what our life might be if we moved to Maine ā€¦ (It would be Valentineā€™s Day there, already šŸ™‚ ) He couldnā€™t wait one more hour to pop the question! I donā€™t know which of us is more sentimental, but now you know youā€™ve shared in our happiness. Highest Regards! ---

I got valentines today from **Sticks and Scones** (who was very brave to include a non-flat item in the envelope, given the POā€™s propensity to mangle such things) and from **gardentraveler**! Thank you, thank you, thank you! ---

And I received **freckafreeā€™s** fun collection yesterday and **Sticks and Sconeā€™s** non-flat item today. Loved them both. Happy to share in your anniversaries, **Atomic Mama** and **acctogo**! ---

Iā€™m glad that your items made it safely. I havenā€™t been to my box today to see if anything else arrived. Yours especially, **gt** was one of the more difficult ones, some of them like **freckafree** ā€™s are a bit different style. And **freckafree** , I absolutely loved yours. I was even asking the lady at the post office if she had seen it/put it in my box. Happy anniversary **Atomic Mama** and **acctogo**! ---

Thanks for the cards! I had hoped mine would have arrived for the US crowd by now - hopefully theyā€™ll be there by Saturday at the latest (and early next week for the Canadians.)
