A girl and her books, dogs and crafts

I live in the Great Pacific Northwest where I read lots of books, you can check them out in my Shelfari bookshelf to the right. I currently knit and spin and have become more active in the SCA so more sewing! I also do quilt and bead-work and have learned how to Norse wire weave. I do have past experience with crochet and ceramics, but don't do a lot of it now. I may also be lured into weaving in the near future, so life is fun and interesting! Come share my adventures!

Capture December, Day 28 - Words

Kind of wondered about what to do for Words. Brandon suggested looking around at the decorations. So I did find the words inside the ornament that Rachel gave a few years ago, but then I ran across the bucket that we had our Christmas cards inside. They have words on the inside and outside. I'll share the outsides with you since the insides are personal. ;-)

Years ago when the budget could afford it, I used to send out Christmas cards and a family newsletter. The budget took a hit and they were the first non-essential thing to go. I gave them in person where I could. I noticed this year that the numbers have decreased again of the ones we receive. I think others have had the same problem.

Do you still send out cards?

I still do cards, but fewer each year. They're photo cards, and we usually do a mass letter with them, to which I add some handwritten notes. They're mostly for family and friends that we don't see during the year, and that aren't on facebook seeing these pictures already!

I did move the due date, though. I used to do them for Hanukkah/Christmas, but now they're new year's cards. And if I'm really slow, they're Chinese New Year cards!

Happy New Year to you!
