RoseB - 22 Oct 2004 03:59 GMT I have n ot received any names recently for the holiday card exchange, so I decided to send another invitation to participate.
If you would like to be on the list to send and receive greeting cards, please email your snail mail address to me. I have removed my spam blocker, so you can email directly to this email address.
Thank-you. Rose
Patty - 22 Oct 2004 04:47 GMT Ahhh, Rose. I'd love to. But, I'm too bogged down this year. This will be the first time I've missed the exchange, since the very first one. ---- Hoping your hills are never too steep. Be well, Patty
Janet R - 22 Oct 2004 04:56 GMT I would love to as well, but I cannot make commitments at this time. I never know when a "bad" day is going to overwhelm me...they are more frequent these days. :(

Char - 22 Oct 2004 11:10 GMT Please, Patty and Janet, add your name to the list. Even if you do not send cards you can receive them. I have been on the list for several yrs and have not sent any cards. (I already have cards for this year though.)
They are such fun to receive. Please add your name and address to the list. Char

Adelle D. Stavis, Esq. - 22 Oct 2004 13:57 GMT I'm going to pass, thanks. Nothing personal. Just the religious thing. Thanks for the invite, though.

Adelle, could we not send Hannukah cards? Because I don't mind receiving cards of any stripe. I wouldn't care if I got a postcard. I just love all the greetings that show up in my mailbox. Also, if you don't wish to send that's fine, too.

Caroline Marold - 22 Oct 2004 19:21 GMT Yep -- what she said. I usually try to send 'Holiday Cards'. Duckie

Adelle D. Stavis, Esq. - 23 Oct 2004 15:54 GMT Didn't want to make you guys have to go out and purchase anything special just for me.
And quite frankly, being a somewhat religious person, I support anyone who feels that the religious aspect of the holiday should not be outweighed by the commercial. But its precisely the religious type cards that are the most inappropriate to me to recieve. A lot of this is my own issues/confusion about how to deal with the holiday. And given that my husband was raised Episcopalian and we will have a tree and presents adds to my confusion.
I've added my own clarity somewhat. I no longer participate in anything related to Christmas that makes my life overwhelming. Before, things fell to gender roles - Doug got the tree and put on the lights, I did everything else: All the gift shopping for us and the families, wrapping everything, boxing whatever needed to be shipped and getting them to UPS, decorating the tree, the cards, the baking for 'exchanges', making hors d'ouvres for the Christmas day visit to his relatives.....on top of whatever Chanukah stuff and New Year's stuff was to be done. SO now, I only do what I enjoy - the shopping and cooking. Oh, and I wind up 'doing' the bulk of the wrapping because I can wrap three presents in the time it takes for Doug to do one. I also do the shipping because I used to do shipping when I worked retail and know what UPS wants. Many friends/family haven't gotten Christmas cards in years, but I figure it's Doug's job. It's his holiday.
SO maybe it's better to say, until I figure out my own mishegas (pronounced mi- shi- GAHS - craziness), I won;t inflict it on you guys. Or is it too late? ;-)

Or is it too >late? ;-) Yep. Too late. lol All I wanted to do was to send you a card wishing you a joyous holiday season, in whatever way you celebrate, whatever holiday/s you celebrate.
Actually, I just wanted to let you know that I consider you a dear friend and wanted to do that by sending you a holiday card. If you dont want to do that, it is OK by me. Dont wish to appear pushy. Char

DeeTee and Bob Taggart - 23 Oct 2004 16:53 GMT ROFL!! I love ya, Adelle! I usually send out Happy Holiday cards. To my friends who I KNOW are Jewish, I send Chanukah cards, and to those who celebrate it, Kwanza cards. It can get complicated, but I don't care. If you are truly a friend, you take the time to know your friends and their likes, etc. Adelle will never get a Christmas card from me again. :-D

Would you like a lovely postcard from Oregon in lieu of a (insert your holiday here) greeting? I would be happy to oblige, having some left over from the summer postcard exchange.
The bottom line is that I like you and want to include you, whether you want to be included or not.lol

Janet R - 22 Oct 2004 19:08 GMT My nephew is Jewish...but they celebrate both. Can we send you Hanukah (forgive my spelling big time) cards?
