I hate any holiday that involves sending cards through the mail. I guess it's an occupational hazard. I do like getting them, so it's a predicament. We're seeing the brunt of it, lots of pink and red envelopes today, must be from parents and grandparents because lord knows kids don't use snail mail much. When I first started it was wicked because it was the only means of communication for most kids at college, mail and pay phones. I remember one year when I was sorting mail for Cornell getting postcard after postcard for the same kid. We eventually realized that when you put them all together that they formed a picture. Kids don't get really creative anymore. They text and twitter. God, when did I turn into a curmudgeon? LOL
The doubleheaders found a little ceramic heart they want to share.
How clever of those kids to do that with post cards!
ReplyDeleteYou are right, though
ReplyDelete100 years from now there will be a lack of envelopes with funny stamps and interesting handwriting. The hand written letter is such lost art
I am different from you, I love making cards for Christmas. I don't usually send Valentines.
( sigh )
Don't get me wrong--I love getting and sending Christmas cards. I organize the christmas card exchange for the bull terrier people and we had 28 participants this year. I love it more than the secret santa. I just hate having to sort the damn things. LOL
