Yeah, I looked for the postmark … there wasn’t one. Double weird.

I mailed them out on the 6th. Doggone - almost 3 weeks?!?!? And still, they’ll raise our postal rates.

The postal service seems to be functioning pretty darn poorly this year, ☹ .

I’m still waiting for mine from **Noone Special** , but I think I’ve gotten pretty much everyone else’s.

Thanks to everyone for participating; I still have mine on my mantel and they’re still making me smile.

We thought of you, BTW, when we saw [this](http://s119.photobucket.com/albums/o155/portia327/?action=view&current=dogbutler.jpg) at a local gift shop the day before Valentine’s Day. If only it hadn’t been so expensive - or homely.

I’m more hound looking anyways. 😃

My valentine from **SpecialOne** finally arrived! I honestly don’t know what the USPS (and maybe even the Israeli PS) do with the mail, but it did eventually get here. Now the question is - did **SpecialOne** get the valentine from me, which was mailed from here on February 11th?! :smack:

No shit!

Seriously, **BrattiAtti** , **Avarie537** , **The Punkyova** , and **Sunrazor** , you haven’t received anything from me yet? Nearly 3 weeks later?

Time for someone to (not) go postal.
