I am cleaning my room and got sidetracked when I found my box of glitter coated SI Christmas cards. These cards are like therapy today.

Gahurts cool lights, chico and broevil's intense glitter flecks that are all over the floor now, Sad in AZ's beautiful bird that made me cry when I opened it because it reminded me if my grandmother, DragnHeart's moose, JPapa's shiny pennies, Tred and SandAway's sledding couple walking hand in hand. 60+ signatures, many little handwritten notes, from all corners of the US and Canada. A whole stack of love, kindness, friendship, and care.

I loved finding these cards today.

We should totally do a Happy Summer card exchange to hold us over till Christmas.

Now I need to break out the vacuum.

Gifts of the heart just keep on giving As my grandfather used to tell me, cutting firewood warms you twice. If I recall Aubrie, yours was so full of glitter the seams of the envelope had burst

Mr. Aubrie was appalled at how much glitter I bought. He said, "Are you sure we're not going to make enemies this way...?"

"Are you sure we're not going to make enemies this way...?"

He'll just have to wait and see, won't he?

Glitter bomb your enemies

Aubrie posted 5/13/2013 12:12 PM

Nahhhh. No enemies on SI. We glitter bomb those we like/love.

Oh, we do love DS and MH, but we didn't glitter bomb them because well...I didn't wanna get banned. Figured since everyone else signed up for the card exchange, they were kinda asking for a bombing.

Moo, I am slightly askeered for next year.

I still have glitter on my brick fireplace.

Everytime the baby comes around the corner table there is glitter stuck to her somewhere. I swear I have vacuumed that corner once a week since the glitter bombs arrived. The little stinker keeps finding traces of glitter.

So much love is very hard to contain inside one little envelope.

I still have my heart shaped bowl full of glitter on my dining room table. People keep asking what the story is.

Can you post a picture of what a card looks like?

Aubrie posted 5/15/2013 07:24 AM

Chrysalis, here's about half of what Mr. Aubrie and I received.

Thanks

I *tried* to save as much of the glitter as I could (except that wicked super-fine stuff that is still floating EVERYWHERE around the house - it's eerie)...and put it all in a big ziplock baggie.then I put a bow on it and pinned the bag to the bulletin board in my kitchen...next to the calendar I look at every day.

You're right, Kajem....so much love.

Almost halfway through the year, and I still feel it every day, sustaining me.

Aubrie, you big liar. I knew you had been into glitter lately!!

I was forewarned about the glitter and opened the cards outside on the deck.

Aubrie posted 5/18/2013 08:04 AM

KB, that was Monday.

I have no clue where last nights sparkles came from.

KBeguile posted 5/18/2013 08:11 AM

Your personality?

Hell, maybe gonnabe2016's asterisk bombs went off...
