I received 17 cards in the mail today! I'm so excited to open them Christmas Eve and Christmas day as I'll be alone and will need the cheer.
I'm so happy to see my card has arrived as well.
Once again my eco conscious DD is complaining about the glitter. I save as much as I can each year and fill an empty, clear ornament with it. I'm pretty sure there's 4 on my tree already, soon to be 5.

OH my dear people. I am so ashamed to be posting this - but have to - I haven't been on the site since October, almost right after I signed up - and then completely forgot about this exchange. I was so excited about it at the time and then so much happened that I had to focus on -so this site went on the back burner until things settled down.. and I've missed it
Today, despite my abandonment, by the grace of God, 23 cards came here. I am in tears beside myself with joy, gratefulness, and horrible anger with myself that I messed this up. You all have made me feel so loved today and I haven't even read anything yet (I will be wrapping myself in a glitter mat suit first).
You are so kind to have let this happen I would be thrilled to tackle my own cards to you all tonight, send out a federal express package tomorrow.. or New Years theme card?? But I see after reading the rules tonight that I'm not able to and understandably respect that time and effort were already spent.
Not going to make excuses about the distraction from the board - I screwed up - but I hope you know I love you all and I hope I won't be banned forever from this event.
I will have to perhaps be creative and think of a another way to love you all back!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Oh I am sorry also, the post before me is similar to what I did.
I feel like an idiot. I was ignorant and didn't read all the rules.
I received 17 cards, glitter everywhere. I started crying. I thank all of you
from my heart. I may not post much but this place has helped me through.
Not done, that's for another forum.
Merry Christmas to all of you dear people!

You guys... Got my cards. Spread paper out, check. Gloves, check. Brush, check.
Happily opening cards, enjoying all the sparkles...
THEN MY CATS, BOTH OF THE LITTLE SHITS, JUMPED UP ON THE COUNTER AT THE SAME TIME. The paper slid off the counter and hit the floor on its edge. Glitter. Fucking. Everwhere
Seriously. It looks like strip club up in this bitch... Omgggg. Bad enough I dropped the container of middle fingers 6 weeks ago and am still finding random fucks all over my house, now I have fairy cattens too
Merry Christmas everyone!

I like the idea of those who weren’t able to send cards this year just pay it forward to others.

thanks all for the cards. If I do not get myself banned in the next year I will do much better.

I've been saving my cards to open because I haven't received the one marked "NSFW" yet. I gather this is a reference to what's in that envelope.

Gah! I want my sparkles! Still no cards here yet, sadly.
But I think I see one of mine in the picture that was posted, so I'm glad my postage was all good!

Another small pile of glittery treasures in my mailbox today that included a padded envelope fully decked out in stamps.
I plan to open mine either Christmas Eve or over the weekend. Like others, I have a paint brush and funnel in my crafts waiting to fill this year's ornament with all the glitter I can save. Thankfully, I don't have any pets to deprive me of any. Although maybe a *glitter-mat suit* would come in handy, looking at that pile!

Tbh, you got my nsfw one yay!
And good luck... I sent to my cousin too only she got waaaaay more r rated glitter. She dropped the envelope and is still finding them all over her house 3 weeks later
Is it very wrong that it makes me so happy that they're gonna be all over everyone's houses?

Haaaapy Dance...Happy Dance! Chili gots some things in the mail today. And at least one of you has a critter too if my pup snuffling the pile is any indication.
All the little almost-spoilers (I'm thinking maybe a little *ick in a box?) has me all curious. (Reminder to self: do not shake before opening).
But I'm going to self-regulate and open a few every day just to stretch out the joy.
Cheers to everyone who sent something - this is so what I needed right now!

Got a ton of cards. Every single card meant so very much to me. Thank each and every one of you. Thank you Elves, for making it happen. Shit, I thought Elves lived near the North Pole, but they are in more proximation to the BBQ center of the universe!
