Irina, your card reached me as well! Thank you!

gooo postal office, come on i know you can do it...... in the end 7 arrived, 6 more are still traveling

malgosia, i am glad it finally arrived !

I want to express my deepest sorry, for not being able to send out my cards to all of you, apart of those I'm in daily contact. Would have loved to send one to each and everyone of you attending the project, but studies didn't really allow me this year, so I only wrote to those I know since forever on here! Forgive me!

THANKS to Irina, Mary and Lin I receive beautiful cards of! As well for the wishes, which go back to you for a very Happy new year(which goes out to the entire bjdg)!

@Irina: Did you get mine?

@ eva, i gave my mom's address cause i thought i would be moving, which ended up not happening so i only know abput the cards from my mom. i will have to double check with her.

Yey it's great news my card reached you, Eva now just one car left to arrive..

You see, Im a terrible person! I went home for the Christmas holidays and plenty of cards were waiting for me!
Thank you very much, Gis, Sheena, Irina, Eva, Carol, Malgosia, Sevda, Esra and Saori (of course with the great photos!!!)

and I have a good news too I got Irina's card today !!!! at last !!!! lol Thank you so much
Thank you for thinking about Japan too

i am so glad saori ! i hope this year my writing was better and that you could understand it

Yes, I was able to understand it 100% ..in this time you know, I had to guess what would be written on your card, a few years ago.


You wished for me and Japan, that new year will be better, and you hoped that I would be able to be surrounded by my family, friends, lovers and Figure Skating ... I also hope we can get a chance to drink something.


Thank you Irina

btw, I've found the thread which was talked about the story of the unwritten card. so, I had to guess what would be written on it it's still funny memory

I got a card from Irina today! Thank you!

I have to chime in, here, too, lol as I got a card from Irina today also. Thank you Irina....your card was worth the wait!

Mary C.

oh dear, mary and kiki, i am glad it finally arrived. i am amazed by the way the postal services work every year. well, i guess wondering about this is part of the fun in this project
kiki and mary, how is the weather in USA, because in Romania it snows so much, it could still be Christmas

i think there is just one card letf now that did not arrive.

Irina, it snowed lightly here this morning. It was supposed to be 5 inches, but it turned out to be just a dusting.

How much snow did you get?

well, in the town i live in, in the fields it's somewhere up to my knees.
but in parts of the country it snowed so much it covered the houses and people can not get out. they had to make holes in the rooftop to get out.

I've been reading online and in the local newspaper, here, about the devastating winter that has befallen the vast majority of Europe. It blows my mind! Our winter, this year, is nothing to compared to what you guys are getting. At the present, in my part of Ohio, there is roughly 2 inches on the ground; approximately 1.5 inches of that fell last night. Tonight we are having bitter cold with temperatures to be between 10 to 15 degrees F., plus winds gusting to 25 miles per hours. It will feel like -5 to -10 degrees F. against your skin if you venture outside. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...to say the least.

I've read reports of whole mountain villages cut off from the rest of their country and many deaths due to the bizarre conditions. Irina, I hope everything remains alright with you and your loved ones during the remainder of this unusual winter. The Danube River is completely blocked by ice and all shipping has come to a complete standstill, even many airports have been affected with shut downs and grounded planes. It's totally insane.

Mary C.

OMG Irina, that's insane. Please stay safe and warm.

It's bitterly cold here today. The wind chill is about zero. *cranks up the heat*

In effect, we live a period of cold, there are numerous regions in orange alertness owed to the cold of which mine! The weather forecast announces some snow and a "mild spell"..

I saw in the TV that in Romania there was a lot of snow of cold as well as in Poland.. I hope that everything goes well for all members Poles, Romanians, Russians, Ukrainian...
En effet , nous vivons une période de froid , il y a de nombreuses régions en vigilance orange dû au froid dont la mienne ! La météo annonce de la neige et un "redoux" ..

J'ai vu à la tv qu'en Roumanie il y avait beaucoup de neige du froid ainsi qu'en Pologne ..J'espère que tout va bien pour tous les membres Polonaises ,roumaines ,russes ,ukrainienne ...

Sending warm wishes to all our East European friends!

Merci beaucoup Gis et Sheena!

Well yes here was heavy snow and snow storms too..very cold! There were villages were lots of houses were covered completly by snow! Some people died and also birds or animals
It's very hard winter! I'm from the region which was more affected by the winter! But Thank God living in a town is better than living in villages near by! Lots of ways blocked and villages too!

On tv news they say that in Ukraine or Poland was much worse!

God bless people all over Europe and Japan too - saw at news that it's the same weathere there too!

Irina I got your Christmas card two weeks ago, sorry I couldn't let you know because I was busy with my big exam. I had the exam today and so I can write here
It was too late but it made me happy to have good wishes in this time of year as well as the Christmas time.
Thank you so much

oh my god, i don't even know what to say. i guess better late then never is really appropriate for this situation.
i am glad it finally reached you and i am sure it was surprise.
