All my cards have been done for awhile but Eckerds messed up the photos FOUR times. Needless to say they gave me a refund. Anyway, I finally got to pick them up yesterday evening and was starting to stick all the pictures in and I came down with a NASTY bacterial infection. Since I have diabetes, it hasn't been fun. I had to go at 4am to get an IV at the emergency room. I am doing a little better but still have no strength. Its all I can do to sit up to type this. So my cards will be delayed a few more days. I am really so so so sorry about that.

It's okay, Aly, we love you anyway. You just take care of YOURSELF!!!!!* until you feel better. Snuggle those babies close, maybe Reese and Lolly'll help lick envelopes, at least! ;)

*We know you have a tendancy to forget how important YOU are to all the animals you care for, so we'll all remind you.

And remeber, the Wise Men didn't get there overnight, either!

Ouch. You have been having challenges, haven't you? Why not aim to have them Martin Luther King day cards instead? (Valentines day??? St. Patrick's Day??? I will be irked if they turn out to be Easter cards ;) !)

I'm not in the card group but wanted to let you know you are not late. We are still in the 12 days of Christmas!!!

Most people don't realize this but the actual 12 days of Christmas are the 12 days following the birth of Christ. In the protestant faith we celebrate the arrival of the wise men at the stable where Jesus laid in a celebration called Ephipany. This occurs on January 6th. So you still have about a week left before your cards are late! ;)

Hope you are feeling better soon!

Thanks so much everyone for your understanding. I am doing a little better. Not throwing up anymore but still have no strength and in pain everywhere. I am thinking I will still be able to finish up the cards tonight or in the morning though.

Its really weird but whenever I get a sickness with throwing up, Lolly always throws up too. It happened last year and I thought it was a coincidence. Then it happened early this year and again with this sickness. Isn't that weird? She also kept coming up and putting her paws and head on me to see if I was okay. Shiloh and Reece were oblivious though, hehe.

It's probably what grandmothers used to call a "nervous stomache" - when you are sick and throw up, it upsets her so much that she ends up throwing up, too!

Just happened to be on a "National Flu Outbreak" map, and Texas was the only state that was bright red, meaning "Widespread Outbreak" - so hope YOU feel better soon!

We don't mind if your cards are late. Your health is much more important to us. Please take care of yourself and get well soon.

Aly - sorry I'm late here - was away from 29th Dec and only got back yesterday - so sorry you've been sick - please don't be thinking of cards - just be thinking of recovering - properly. Don't go doing too much it'll set you back again. {{{Hugs}}} across the miles - Lynne xx
