Annual Christmas card exchange

That’s my job for today. And/or maybe tomorrow: Address, stamp and mail my cards.

I can’t believe a week of December is already gone! Wasn’t it just Halloween?

I’ve gotten a couple, too! Which of course motivated me to address and stamp most of mine. Some are going out today, the rest on Tuesday. At least that’s my plan.

Tar Heel and LivetoRide1000 win Most Organized! I went to the Post Office today and they were out of Christmas stamps. I got Kwanzaa ones instead.

You are all so ahead of me. It feels like it should be the end of November or early December. I’m NOT on board with it being the second weed of December already.

You will all get my cards when I get back from my work trip and put them in the mail at the end of this week. :rofl: Truly holiday cards this year… as in, mine will probably arrive right before the celebration.

Just put in the mail the second and last batch of cards, finger crossed they’ll arrive on time since they’ll fly overseas! And be kind to me for any mistake in writing, I did my best LOL

No problem! I hope my card to you gets there by Christmas, it’s been mailed.

My cards are mailed and I’m enjoying the ones I’ve received. I just wanted to say that I really like reading the Christmas letters enclosed in some people’s cards. My life seems pretty dull in comparison, especially since I haven’t ridden for several years. Maybe next year…

I just received the first three cards! I loved your letters, thank you! I’m not passing a really happy season (mom broke a femur on 30/11 and is in hospital, dad got Covid and now it’s my turn with Covid fever and hard cough :roll_eyes:)and your cards brought me so much joy

I just want to say, as well, that I love reading about everyone’s adventures. It’s not to see a side of you all that I wouldn’t know other than the newsletters. So, thank you!

Mine will go out this weekend.

I’ve definitely taken notes and will write a letter for next year! I weirdly wasn’t sure people wanted to hear about my random life. But I really have loved reading about others, so, note taken, will write more next year :slight_smile:

@J-Lu, your Christmas card envelope from me is bigger than normal because it contains 2 cards.

Hahahahahahaaaaaaa! l think I know who the other card is from and I think I love you! I got a whole bunch of cards, including yours, in the mail yesterday but I haven’t opened any yet.

Mine will hopefully go out on Tuesday. Amazon just delivered ink for my printer and I don’t have access to a color printer yet at work (don’t ask!). Time flies!!

Hey, it was too good an idea to pass up. Plus, what’s Christmas without a little bit of holiday cheer? :rofl:

(Just be sure to read both sides of what’s enclosed inside the special card).

@Paint_Party, Hahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Bwahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! OMG,I finally received my Patriot Medal! After all of these months, emails, texts and a donation! I’m so happy to have gotten the attention of my favorite governor (wait), senator (wait), politician (??), influencer (not the good kind), Kari. She will always be my BFF (as long as I keep donating). I’m so touched! So is my bank account!

You. Are. The. Best! Please tell Kari I say “hello” and thank her for the medal the GOP keeps telling me I’ll get. Any day. She really stepped to the plate!

(Oh. My. God!!!))

I have received cards from members in the States and Canada. I love reading about the differences in how we keep and compete our horses.

Sorry all, my cards just went out this week.
So they’ll be holiday season cards rather than Christmas cards LOL.
I’ve been enjoying all the cards & letters I’ve received.
All the years we’ve been doing this, I think I only missed participating one year.
