I don't always send them, but I always intend to! I have been pretty good, a couple years in a row now... Like Bill, I think it's an extra special treat to those who get one from me, the odds are dodgy!! It sure is a feeling of accomplishment, getting those cards in the mailbox. I also write a short personal message, since I don't have kids or photos or newsletters to share. It gets a little tedious to write in each one, but I make sure I have eggnog and carols playing and make it festive. This year I wrote half while watching "Holiday Inn." I like reading the newsletters, even when they are braggy! Usually they are from relatives I don't keep in touch with so it's just a nice record of their year. I don't mind cards that are just signed (always the photo ones) but I prefer the ones with a message! I also don't compare give-to-recieve. I am sure I've fallen off a list or two for the years I missed, but I send cards to people I want to extend a greeting to, not to those whom I owe anything!

Oakley, you asked how we felt about Christmas cards for cryin' out loud! Why does it always have to turn into all about you? Stop your innocent act, Natal. YOU are the one who made it about me with your thinly veiled comment AS IF none of us would notice it. lol. You said: A little sad to hear some consider the practice a contest. I hope none of my recipients are in that camp. insert your text Do you think I'm that dumb not to recognize an insult when I see one? "Some?"..uh, you mean ME? lol At least I don't hide behind rudely veiled comments like you do. If anyone dares offer a different viewpoint you get your feathers ruffled. I deliberately avoid many of your threads now for that very reason. I think others do the same. Oh reeally? You must have missed my recents threads which YOU reply to all of them. ;) Admit it, you live for my topics. hee. Now, lay off the eggnog and have a very merry Christmas! Dh and I have already been out shopping and out to dinner and I refuse to let you ruin my Christmas spirit. Sorry to everyone else, but sometimes ya just have to get it off your chest. :)

I'm slow this year,I haven't started Christmas in any form, I'm just now working on Thanksgiving get together! I better get in gear this week. I'm planning on making all my cards again this year.
