DQOTD: Hey Mr Postman…
Here in the UK, the final postal date for items going to the States for a Christmas delivery is tomorrow!
I am soooo disorganised this year, and haven’t even finished making my cards yet, let alone started posting them! How about you? Are you super organised and your cards are already stamped and gone? Or are you getting j-u-s-t a little bit stressed about how quickly time is flying by, like me? |

won't be doing any christmas cards this year as I am too broke. To be quite honest I haven't even started my christmas shopping & I only need to buy 3 gifts!

I gave up on cards a few years ago. I found them the most stressful part of the holiday because of checking up on everyones' addy & getting stamps & all of it. So I gave it up & send out ecards now & feel so much better about it.

Mine all went out last Friday. I had a couple that have moved and I'm not sure of their addresses, so they didn't get a card. That's how it works at my house.

Haven't even started... LOL! I say I've got a week yet... I had a friend who use to send out New Year Cards because he knew he would never remember to get them out for Christmas... ha, ha

I'm with Stacey. Cards just stress me out. I think I am going to make some and email them to my family and friends.

I was going to get them printed and sent off this week but um, the weather's not so nice and I don't wanna go outside! Maybe this weekend.

I used to send out alot of cards every year, but that kind of fizzled out. I do need to send out a handful, but I haven't done it yet.

Cards are one of my favorite things about Christmas, so I send out LOTS (in hopes of getting lots back Mine are mostly sent out- I ordered from WHCC and they shorted me envelopes, so I am just waiting to get those and send out the last batch

I just sent ours out this morning. Feels great to have it done!
ETA: I had a big debate with some friends last year about whether e-mailing Christmas cards was a good idea. Pros: it's fast and easy and from an environmental standpoint, it sure would save on paper and ink and all that post office fuel to deliver them. Cons: It just isn't "the same".

I'm starting to get a bit annoyed with Vistaprint because mine still haven't arrived. I was hoping to get them out early this year too!
***Edited to add that now I'm annoyed at FedEx for taking so long for my packages to get to me. They still have both of the ones I'm waiting for and they were both shipped on the 4th! Ugh.

I just ordered mine from Vistaprint. They should get here next week. I am working on my photobooks today and that is all I have left to order online.

I haven't sent out card in about 3 years.......the only reason I would is to show new pictures of my kids and I post enough of those on my blog and facebook that it's just not worth it to send a card.....plus that's one less thing I have to do!!!!

I am waiting until the baby is born to send them. If they arrive late oh well.
PS: I am being induced Friday morning.

Tomorrow I am going to get the cards sent out and finish my shopping, but I ordered a couple of gifts that need to be mailed. So I can't mail those until I get them. Kind of silly of me to order them this week, but I had to wait until I finally got paid.

I'm kind of glad I'm not the only one leaving things to the last minute again - but there are some intimidatingly organised people out there!
I bow to you, and hope to learn from your example for next year - too late for this one! |
