Here I am again trying to beat a deadline. I am not talking about the daily prompts although I am a couple of days behind on that. It is the Christmas Eve deadline. For years now I have made my own Christmas cards and this year is no different. I am only about 5 cards short of being done. Then I will write about a dozen letters to go with a few. The final stage is to address, stamp and decorate the envelopes. As long as they hit the mailbox before midnight on Christmas Eve, I have fulfilled my duty to get them in the mail BEFORE Christmas. I am doing pretty good though this year. I do have three letters started and have plenty of time set aside for more writing this weekend. I may be able to get them done and in the mail by Friday the 20th so there will be a good chance of them arriving before Christmas even.
In this day and age of computer and text communications… do any of you still send out Christmas cards? I know I am part of a dying breed, but I still find it so nice to get something in the mail other than bills and that is why I still do cards every year.

We still send out Christmas cards.
Glad to know I am not alone.
It does take lots of time to do what you are doing. But feels so good when someone has made special effort. 👏👏👏
Thanks Sadje!
Always a pleasure Leigha. 💗
We send out a few Christmas cards and give people who provide services (e.g., paper delivery guy, my wife’s hairdresser, mail delivery guy, house cleaners, etc.) Christmas cards with gift certificates in them. But mostly we sent “Happy Holidays” emails.
Sounds like you spread lots of Christmas cheer.
