Wow, Lut, thank you so much - this year more than ever we need ways to reach out across the miles to each other, to spread the love but not the virus!

Count me in, this year for sure.

Despite chaos and illness
Politicians and pundits
Christmas will come

Advent will happen
Quiet, steady
Candles lit
In the grwoing darkness
That humble walk to
Renewal and joy
Preparation and prayer

As we pray
And pray again
For peace and healing
Compassion and understanding
And love

Cheers! - Pat

Purrrs! - Sparkler and Tinker

Almost halfway now, so please join this list and send me your address

Every year it is so much fun sending my cards and receiving cards form PT-friends

I usually make my own cards, so that's what I have done again!!
I made 60 cards, all unique, and I cannot wait to write and send them all!!

Love to y'all and stay safe

I hope I'm not a fly in the ointment here but with the cost of postage and our area being near lockdown right now I'd like to put in a request for doing e-cards. A friend in my walking group sends the loveliest cards to all members (BCC). Gorgeous art, animation, music and a space to personalize a note.

In the case of Gary, I'll send a paper card.

Will PM you with all my info, Lut. Thanks for doing this!

**Maya & Inka's mommy** · 11-26-2020, 02:58 PM

As today was 26th November, I collected all these addresses, and put them on a list.
I've send the list to all who joined this list.
Please let me know when you've received the list.
If there any mistakes, please let me know okay

I have to admit that I am very disappointed that so few members have registered. I am
not sure yet whether I will organize this again next year.

To everyone who didn't join but want to know, my new address anyway, please send me a pm and I will give it to you

Have a happy and healthy Christmas 2020 !!

That's fine with me, Candace. Will you be able to receive paper cards all right?

Thank you so much, Lut! Fewer members have been posting on PT these days, so I'm sure that's why so few have registered this time. I hope more people will join in in the future!

I will send cards to some friends who were on previous lists but aren't on this one so far.

Yep, but I decided that you may join us this year!
It's been a difficult and sad year because of that dreaded Covid 19,
so we must be good to everyone and hope that next year will bring us all much more joy, hope, and happiness, and of course a good health

Please send me your address as soon as possible, so I can forward it to the other participants. I will also send you the list as soon as I hear from you
