I got the cards out, I printed off all the addresses, I put them all on the table and went off to make coffee. Along comes Mr Fixit, who sees the cards and says "Oh great. I'll just write mine first, then you can do yours."
Mr Fixit writes cards to 3 particular friends of his. So can you explain to me how come the ones I write to everyone else, friends or family, are "mine"?
Here is a picture of my new "Christmas tree" too. I went out to buy a small tree to put in the bay window in the lounge. This is what I came home with!
Tell me about it, I write all our Christmas cards and each year I keep cutting back, even more so this year when our postage almost doubled!! Sorry but the people we met on holiday in the year dot are not now getting a Christmas card from me. xx
ReplyDeleteThis year my husband is "helping" me make Christmas cards..so much fun...lol Love your Christmas trees.
ReplyDeleteI have to tell you...you are so lucky he helped with that much! For some reason my husband feels it is my duty to insure not only holiday cards are sent out but the b-day cards to his family are bought as well! I have to force him to write a one liner before I seal them up and I mail them!
ReplyDeletelol hmm, makes me appreciate my relative sigularity! I send few cards, and even then I find it a distressing task! Love you 'new' tree :) perhaps I need one of those for the Diva!
ReplyDeleteThat´s why I gave up writing x-mas cards...
ReplyDeleteMy husband will do all cards that don't require a message. If a card requires a message, it becomes my responsibility.
ReplyDeleteThis is too spooky - not only do we both have gold & red trees, but I think we have the same baubles!! Lovely to talk to you last night, still haven't found that damn book!
ReplyDeleteAs for the Christmas cards, it's called "being married", I thought you knew that by now. At some point over the weekend Management will ask me "have WE sent a card to ... [insert name of one of HIS relatives] ?"
That would be the Royal we, then?
PS: Bay window lovely, it will look super from outside.
ReplyDeleteLovely tree with red and gold, very striking. The slim tree is very modern and very sleek. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHave a super good sewing and stitching day.
aww your tree is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI gave up sending Christmas cards a long time ago. And most people we know have too. I do miss the pretty cards but it was just getting too expensive.
ReplyDeleteLove the tree. The new one is fun!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should hand him half the cards and addresses and see what happens...
Ab ;o)
Our Christmas card list gets shorter every year--know how I know??? I still have remnants of a box of Christmas cards from last year and I sent some of those out again this year---maybe next year I'll finish that box!
ReplyDeleteI still have cards to do. I'd love to scrap it but then I'll get complaints about that's their pic of the girls so hopefully they'll get it by Christmas!! LOL! Love your trees!!
ReplyDeleteI've got to get my cards out...but I am so behind on blogs so here I am.
