I'm the WORST at sending friends and family cards. The absolute WORST. Even though I have a whole mess of cards premade, I never realize it's their birthday or anny until THAT day when it's too late to send the card.

So I JUST thought of something now. I'm going to take my card box and make it like a recipe box with dividers for each month. Then inside, I'll keep a list of who has an event that month and when it is. If I keep the box on my desk in plain sight and stocked with cards and envelopes and stamps, there's no way I can forget! Right??? :blink:

Thoughts?

It's on my Facebook, silly gurl. :)

Yeah, we're not doing STDs. FI has no clue what they are & with our guest list being so small, it seemed silly to do it. Now with the big ol' wedding you're having, they're a necessity. :)

I never check the info on ppl's pages. Good to know :)

Yea, I had to add in there that it's being held in NY, just so people knew for sure. You never who listens to what, so I added it to be clear for everyone. Right now the guest list sits at 178 I think. But we know a handful of those won't show (like my 2 bosses). We're sending them out in February which is a little early, since it's technically a holiday weekend (not that anyone makes plans for Columbus day usually, but still). Jordan wanted to send them out in October cuz his friends sent theirs out CRAZY early. I was like no, we don't need to, we'll send them after the new year.

PS~Your birthday is 3 days after mine!

ETA: Bree I totally had to think about it for a second too :p
