Time for the "Maine Friends" Holiday Card exchange! (dinner, good)

[RHB]

Wait a minute....why were you all in the hospital???? Recovery??????

Are you all okay????

[Elcarim]

All's well! M had a family member who had a minor surgical procedure. I freaked too!! I thought, WTH did I miss???

[Elcarim]

Several people have asked if there are any rules or what they should send. Don't feel obligated to send gifts - PLEASE!! This is meant to be a card exchange, and in our current economic situation, feel free to send hand/heart made cards, as well! If anyone wants to exchange gifts with those you're closest to, that's completely up to you. You all just do what you feel in your heart.

As I opened each of my cards last year and read your hand-written and heart-felt sentiments, I was brought to tears........with every single card! Brad would walk through the room and see me sobbing and reading, and he'd say, "Must be another card from Maine!"

This is about sharing a little of OURSELVES with each another! That is special enough!!
