well that was nasty...........

O.k so I'm signed up for the christmas card exchange and I'm filling out my cards. My mom came over and said she was headed into town (good luck woman!) She asked if I needed anything. I told her STAMPS! She asked 'how many' As she was taking a drink of pepsi. I said "69 of 'em" That crazy old bird spit pepsi all over my porch
Didn't even offer to clean it up. Just looked at me like I'MMMMMM the crazy one.

LOL!! She would really think I was a crazy women...I have no family that lives near me. My dh has family all over the US.. I send over a hundred Christmas cards each yr.. One uncle told me that "it's not Christmas until he get my card'... They all talk about my cards so I know they enjoy getting it..Dh's oldest aunt (94) says she LOVES getting mail, cards and she hates that she doesn't get more! I also send birthday cards to all of them and they are amazed that I can 'remember them all'---LOL I am family historian for my dh's family and I have my grandmother's bible===very easy to remember...QB

Yeah, when I went to the P.O. to get my stamps I told the clerk I wanted "100 to start" and her mouth fell open.

By Monday I should have my cards ready to be "stamped"..... Guess I better get me stamps tomorrow (good thing the clerk at the P.O. and I are friends.... she knows to expect the unexpected)....

I can't wait to start receiving cards.... It's such a treat to go to the mailbox....
