QotD: Holiday Cards
Were your holiday cards store bought, handmade, online, TBD or MIA?
Handmade - no way!!! Who has time for that?
Normally, I don't bother with Xmas cards and they are MIA. This year is for some reason different.
I bought a bunch of cards to send to business associates (good little ass-kissing to keep the company's we follow happy). While I was at it, I got motivated to send some cards to friends as well -- Hey, if I'm writing cards to people that are just work-contacts, I should be sending cards to people I actually LIKE! I pulled out the leftover cards from last year and actually found some that I had addressed, and stamped, but never written -- how lame am I???
I still have at least 10 friend cards to send, but am otherwise done. I figure my friends won't be highly offended by receiving a card between Xmas and NYE, which is good, because that's what is likely to happen.
Pet Peeve -- I HATE cards when people don't take the time to write anything besides their & our names. Why even bother. I think that's why it I don't usually do holiday cards often. I only want to do them if I'm going to do them right (at least what I consider "right"), but that takes forever!
Between baby announcements and Xmas cards with kids on them, our fridge is quite the sight. I haven't gotten cards from a few people that are card-sending folks, so I suspect its going to get worse before it gets better.
