Re: Anyone Getting Christmas Cards Yet

  I used to get a lot. The last few years we barely get any. As a result I’ve cut back on the number I send out.With the exception of about 5 I now wait to see who sends to us first.I got tired of sending to people who are too lazy to reciprocate.

  These days I get group texts or emails with Holiday wishes. What’s up with that? I think it’s so cold.

OP here.  We've only gotten 7; three more coming today.  Sure to be more next week.

 

DH and I are talking about paring down his list next year, removing most of his second nieces/nephews.

Re: Anyone Getting Christmas Cards Yet

I have for decades always sent mine out before Thanksgiving so delivery was that Friday after.  Used to be so easy to estimate the timing for the delivery due to locations of recipients.  Now the ones in my own town may not get the card if I mail it out on Wed. on the Friday, much less out of town folks.  Oh well still I just like to kick off the Thanksgiving week-end with Christmas in the mailbox.
