  Hey, I thought there wouldv'e been many more hints on this thread by now! I'm soooo curious to know who's my SS, but from reading through this thread at least I can tell who's NOT my SS.

  Just finished wrapping the gift for my SS person ...

  Okay I'm not saying I don't see my ss person on the list, but just in case some one hasn't posted I'll help keep this on the top.

  Good Morning Annie Hope today is being extra good to you I have a confession to make are you taking confessions this morning? I asked everyone to please include you anyway on their christmas card list I figured since we had your address for get well/be better/strength to you cards it would be nice to just add you to our christmas card list too.

  Anyway, hehe. It is 80 to 90 cents to Canada and the UK, in that order, I am on my way to the post office now to send my out of country cards I'll have a better idea when I get back, I'll let you know a little better idea then.

  XXX Dorothy

  One more tip for those sending cards overseas.
  
  When at the post office - insist/request (or bribe) the person putting the stamps on the cards to use actual stamps - and not a cancelled sticker. Stamps from foreign/distant countries are really cool, and folks still like to see them - as opposed to a sticker.
  
  Are we having fun yet?
  
  Regards,
  
  Jim TX

  Good advice

  And yes I am having a blast

  One thing that I appreciate about the main person I deal with at the post office here he is also good to stamp/cancel the stamp from the town I live in otherwise it would be stamped in a metro area a long ways from where I live.

  I have a list of all the names and addresses saved so if I haven't gotten it to you yet let me know, and I can easily send another if it makes it easier to get them all at once.

  Thanks Jim_tex I have my address on most of the lists I didn't at first so thanks for mentioning it.
