i have been reading the posts of the people here who have loved ones that are shut in and many of you have sent cards and well wishes to them.
would anyone be interested in starting something that would be on going?
i would be glad to spear head this project and of course if anyone else would want to help :D

If you have a family member or friend that you would like to sign up
go ahead and pm me their name, address, birthday/anniversary or any other special day they may have.
i will start putting a list together
oh and if you have a family member that is serving in the armed forces-feel free to let me know and i will add them to the list as well

Bevy,
I am still very willing to do this, but there hasn't been any interest yet of anyone wanting to pitch in.

If we get more response, I'll let you know

Since there are more people interested now here is what I will do.

If you are interested in sending mail/cards please PM me to let me know so I can send you any address' that I get.
Also please include your email address so that I can send a file with the names (this will be a text/note pad file since not everyone has excel or microsoft word)

If you have some one that could use some mail as a pick me up, please PM me the following:
Name
Address
a little about the person, such as their favorite color or if they like butterflies, birds, etc.
It also might be helpful to know what religion they are (if any). Of course this is not required but if some one were an atheist, we wouldn't want to send them a FSL cross or a picture of Mary :wink:

I will start putting lists together once I get some responses in my in box.

please note; if you send me your name, this does not obligate you to mail a certain number of things or commit you to a time frame. Also you do not need to send to every address I send to you. If you decide at any time you no longer want to be on the list, just let me know, you won't have to give an explanation. Lastly, I will not give out any information about who is or isn't on the list. If you want people to know that will be up to you. I know some would rather remain anonymous
