Me too! Valentine’s Day is so fraught & emotionally loaded that it’s such a sweet treat to get a lovely surprise from an acquaintance or friend. Note to self: pick up / make enough Valentine’s to send to ALL my friends this year, not just my SDMB pack. 😉 ---

Ok, I went ahead and sent you all of your PMs with addresses! If we get some last minute signups I’ll work them in. If I did anything stupid like give you your own address let me know. Let’s set a tentative mailing deadline for…how about sometime between next Wednesday, the 7th, to next Friday, the 9th? If you genuinely can’t get them out by those days, try for Monday the 12th at the very very latest. OK! Go! ---

Mailed. I’m a little more organized than I was at Christmas, bit I’m afraid it’s cards only. ---

**Anaamika** - could we have the complete list of people who signed up? And I think I have enough things that I can send them out to more than just my assigned people. Thanks! ---

> [@Atomic\_Mama](#): > > I guess I’m OUT. Saw this too late. I’ll try again next year ☹😃 Just saw this also tonight. Count me in for next year. What a kind gesture! Here is another thought…How about a Random Act of Postcard to peeps all over the world. I would love to see the face of some child in (name your country of choice) watching in wonderment as their mailperson delivers a postcard from (where ever you live) just to say “Hello! Hope to see you in the future!”. Yeah, I am sentimental like that…🙂 ---
