Holiday cards

I have noticed that I seem to be getting fewer holiday cards this year. The basket I usually put them in is only 1/3 full. Is that your impression, too?

Are you sending out more than last year? Less? The same? How many do you generally send out? We are sending out about 150 this year.

We send approximately 80 cards every year. The number is steady, although names are added and dropped from time to time. We usually receive 60 or so and I think we're on track this year. Some of my friends are habitually late (including two families who generally get around to sending annual newsletters sometime in March).

I used to send my cards very early, but procrastinated this year. We wrote our cards in a marathon session last weekend. Though it's a chore, I wouldn't consider dropping it even though now we can keep in touch through the internet (and I'm now receiving some ecards and emailed newsletters).
