Very sorry to be saying my thanks so late in the month - I've quite a pile gathered up. I'll try to organize them by dates received.

u/imnoporcupine : your card was such a treat to get! I found everything except for the second "yay". I've turned the card sideways and upside-down, but cannot figure it out for the life of me! Thank you for the fun! :)

u/secret_dogs : Thank you for the great space postcard - while I have what seems like a never-ending set of different cards, I did not have the one you sent me!

u/sigidies : I imagine the weather has gotten a bit cooler since you sent out this card. Funny enough, it should be pretty cold her in NYC, but this past week has been unseasonably warm! I do love the marigold card - I love marigolds in general, but always have a hard time finding them at the markets. Thank you!

u/detectiveporkchop : you are my first Christmas card of the season! Thank you! And who can't love an animal in a Santa hat, though I imagine the picture makes the wombats look a bit more cuddly than they actually are!

u/honeybee-18 : Please don't judge me, but I let out a yip of excitement when I opened your fab card and saw the golden "ticket"! Stickers are great in general, but there's something about gold that makes it a bit more glamorous and festive! (I may have also been singing the song from Willy Wonka the rest of the day too...) Thank you for that afternoon of fun! :)

u/amyt13 : I think you are my first card from Ireland! There's something comforting about receiving an old-timey scene card. That picture is one of the many things that makes me want to leave this dumpster fire of a country and move to the UK. Thank you!

and last but not least..

u/uncutprideofthebull : I couldn't have put your words better - this year flew by, while also somehow managing to be the longest in history! I am very grateful to have not caught the 'rona, but know others who have and are still suffering the consequences. I've only just started setting up my tree - slightly later than usual actually - because I've been helping out at my friends baking making gingerbread houses! (also the reason why this post is so late!) I also fully support your buying more ornaments and decorations! I have too many, but will never say no to a cute critter. Thank you!

Thank you all again for the great cards. I kick myself sometimes for not sending more cards at a younger age, because they are always so fun to receive!

Happiest holidays to everyone!
