I have sent PMs to everyone with their buddy's address.

Fleur, I gave Claire the last address I have for you but please confirm with her so your package doesn't go astray!

Please post here both when you mail and when you receive!

I've got the sniffles today.  Unsure if it's the beginning of something more or, most likely, just the weather.  It's cold (for us) and going in and outdoors tends to make my nose run in the winter.

Ani, I think there's a connection to the cold, winter weather, and sniffles. I've been walking our dog in the woods almost daily, with a handful of tissues with me when my nose turns into a faucet, and then home to a house with dry air.

I think that's true, Shirley.  My nose is always slightly runny in the winter.

A doctor told my husband that's a good thing because a lot of germs, etc, won't stick around long enough to hurt you.
