    Question Have you mailed your Christmas cards yet?

    Half of my cards are sealed and will be put in the mail today. I have to go and buy more though. I didn't have enough!

    How many cards do you send out each year?

    I send about 30.

    Nope, not yet. Most of mine are written out. I need to add some people from the list here. Unfortunately that list has around 30 people on it, and I won't be able to send to everyone.

    I have all mine filled out. All I have to do is seal them and put a stamp on them. I have about 35 cards to send. I will probably have to send a few more as I get some cards from people every year that I don't have on the list. (Dec. 3 :  They are sitting in the mailbox as I type this.)

    Mine are all set and ready to go. I had been postponing it because I thought I would put a family picture in this year, but we never had the time to go get one taken. So, I'm mailing them out, sans picture, tomorrow.

    I have mine still sealed in the box sitting on the table for me to write out today. I hope I have enough to send out. I have 3 boxes of 18 cards. I am hoping to get them in the mail tomorrow along with 2 packages I need to mail out of state for Christmas.

    I'm still hoping to get a picture done, or at least one of the baby to send (that's the more likely option as I can shoot and print it myself- that might even be my project for this afternoon).

    The cards are all stamped & addressed and about 2/3 of them are written out.

    Now I'm waiting on the caricature address labels I ordered to come in so I can get them finished. The labels were shipped on the 11th so they should be here any day now. Normally I make my own labels, but I couldn't resist the VistaPrint caricature labels this year at 1/2 off-- they're so funny!

    We send 50-60 cards to friends & family each year.

    I'd like to send to everyone on the FV list, but I don't think I'll be able to.

    I don't usually send cards, but I'm going to start! I'm not even sure who sent us one last year.

    Michelle...why are you sad? Is it the money that is stopping you to send your cards?...if so, please don't feel sad. You know you can send ecards to your some on your list...I know I wouldn't mind to get one. I would be even happy because it's from you. and it's really the message that counts.

    As for myself, I haven't written one yet...I will do it this week.
