So I was all upset about not receiving Christmas cards a while back. Boo hoo, poor me, I blogged. I love cards. I want cards. I will send cards out, I promised. I even went and bought the cards. I did give a few out at school, but have I sent any out? No. I have not.
I just finished writing them and they have stamps and addresses on them and everything, but they are not in the mail. The soonest I can mail them is tomorrow, the 23rd of December. There is no mail on the 25th. My cards will be late.
I am sorry, but I’m also glad that I’ve done them and that some of my friends will receive them. Some of my friends really don’t do cards, so in order for them to avoid any guilt feelings I’ve refrained from sending them cards this year. Maybe next year they’ll get one too, but then again, it’s way too soon to start planning for next year.

I wish I had time for Christmas cards. Every year I say I am going to send them and then the days go by and I forget about them until the very last second and by then its too late. Maybe next year things will be different.

I have a friend who does a mid-year card just because holiday time is too busy. 🙂

That’s a cute idea. 🙂

I love cards but I don’t get the chance to purchase or send them out BUT I do have a suggestion for you. Instead of Christmas cards maybe you can consider sending New Year’s Greeting cards next year. I had to do that two years in a row because I kept mailing the cards off too late for them to reach the recipients in time for Christmas. This way you get a little more time and you’re not too late even if the cards arrive in January!

Maybe I should write a disclaimer on the envelopes? 🙂 Good idea for the future.
