Here is my first shipment! I had about 274! I got to the post office and realized that I had the $14.95 box, but only $11 in my pocket! So I sat at the counter and moved it all into the medium box!
I got them all in! Woot! Woot!

Thankful Thursday: September 23, 2010
Well, this week saw our shippers processing a record amount of mail in just one week: 26,274 cards! Yes 26,274!! The avalanche has truly begun! Many many thanks to all who are stamping the backs of their cards, and learning "the tuck" so well - you're making our job SO much more manageable.
(I was 151! I just had to cut and paste my name in to brag!)
So last month, their shipping alone was $9,000 with all the cards they sent overseas! So I think I am going to have to put in more than the $10 it cost for me to ship!
Remember if you want to help me, I will always have my box with me at any of the events I am attending. I will also have a collection can for donations for shipping. Each month, whatever money I have left after shipping the box to the handler, I send it with the box!
Thank you for your help! I could not have sent my September box, if it wasn’t for the help of the following!
- Tracy Croy
- Donna Brown
- Darleth Wilhelm
Thank you, everybody!
