A beautiful morning here in Jezerville. Chilly but sunny.
December is a heck of a month for me when it comes to birthdays. Within the family there are at least four or five with one on Christmas Eve.
I was out buying cards for these events, as well as general cards for the things that pop up from time to time. As we get older some of those things that pop up are not so happy.
I was looking for one for my mother and I think I did reasonably well. Aren't there times though when you just can't seem to find the right one?
Well, seeing as I'm asking let's find out by making the POTD;
Oh yes, those December birthdays! I really get hit. Our granddaughter's birthday is the 13th, my sister's the 24th, Mr Chickie's is Christmas Day, and my brother's is the 29th. Wow. But of course in October, my grandson's birthday is on his mama's birthday!
I always try to find Mr. Chickie a nice card which says something about a birthday on Christmas Day but they get fewer and fewer to choose from. He says it's just another day for him so why worry about finding the perfect card.
Another thing Chickie- do you find that the choice of birthday and other cards reduces as Christmas cards fill the shelves?
Yes I do find that reduction of available cards at Christmas time. The merchants want those Christmas bucks. Lots of people buy cards during the holidays and send to loved ones and close friends instead of gift buying. I can't say I blame them. But many people I know, no longer send massive amounts of Christmas cards out, and only send to a small list. That's what I do.
Back in the day I used to send out a ton of Christmas cards, but since I moved down here I just send e-cards to a few people and write something personal.
Wow jezer....haven't a clue but that is an interesting place. Love the pool. What is it and where???
Tas, I'm the same as you, not much into cards. When I do want to get a special card, I send DH to pick it out. He is really good with that.
Me not so much. I try to remember to send to special people but I"m afaid I"m lax.
lots of rain later.......not complaining, could be snow. ewww.
