Holiday cards

[pegkerr]

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.

I sent out a few more than last year--didn't keep an exact count, around a hundred. Basically, I send out cards to everybody in my address book. New names get added over the course of the year, and it takes a concerted effort for somebody to lose touch with me to the extent that their name gets crossed out.

I think I've gotten a few more than last year, too. My friends seem to be hitting the stage where they start sending out Christmas cards--in previous years, they've been mostly from family.

Soon, I'll start getting back orphan cards that were returned to sender. There will be more crossing-out of names, and then I will transfer all of it to a nifty new address book.
