I DID it!!

Yay!! I finished Christmas cards! 63 are in the mail, and on their way. I remembered one more to get out tomorrow, then Mel will need some to pass out at work—but for the most part they are done. I normally have the task completed within the first few days of December, but sis' month long visit left me quite discombobulated, and I'm just beginning to get it back together. (for me—lol)  

It's late—or rather early, so I'll make another promise to do better soon.   Hugs!

I think that is a real accomplishment getting 63 cards out! I am not sending cards...didn't last year either. The cost just got too much for me. Please know that I wish you a Very Merry Christmas though!!!!!

I feel the love, and your warm wishes! Thanks!

It IS expensive! Postage alone was $26.46. I'm going to do some serious trimming of my list, next year. But, there are many old, old friends (we're just old) who would go mostly unnoticed if I was to scratch them off. So, for those I'll keep the card list going as long as possible.

I've often wondered how much the USPS could trim off the postage cost by dropping Saturday delivery—and how many trees could be saved by getting bulk mailings under control? Hmmmm. They need new management there, too! Hugs!

Good for you. We quit sending cards last year. Too expansive and my handwriting is too bad and too much arthritus in my hands. I sure wish you and Mel a Merry Christmas though. Love & Hugs.
