Wow, y'all are so sweet! I've already received 5 cards and I wasn't expecting any. I didn't want to be in the card exchange this year because we've got so much going on right now, I didn't think I'd have the time. Julie said she would put me on as receive only but I thought that was unnecessary...

I will be gone for about 65 hours, and I have to leave Teti and Tinùviel to themselves for all that time... Of course I know they will do...

Hi group, Norma has asked me to pass on the following message: Christmas Please tell all of your friends that I love all the cards from them and I hope by next year I am able to send cards their way. I have just had a mild stroke and I am not able to adress the envelopes and sign all the...
