More Christmas Readiness: The Card

I just came back from the mailbox across the street. Dropped in 35 Xmas cards. Wore my Santa hat (natch).
Many hours of the last week have been devoted to get to this point, and a few more are to come, as we have about 100 more cards to send. But they are all ready to be inserted and addressed. It's an annual labor of love.

Usually I wear my antlers, but I had to send them to antler heaven last year, and I haven't been able to find more (even Target!).

Of course, Xmas music plays in the background as we work on the cards. I recently downloaded my 25 kick-ass Xmas CDs, from the Vienna Boys Choir and Gregorian Chants to Ray Charles and Willie Nelson. I love having the music in iTune so that I can SKIP Greensleeves. I hate that song. My favorite has to be the Temptations' version of Silent Night. I found a link so you can listen to it: The temps sing Silent Night. After you click on the link, the song will start automatically--be patient--it takes 12 seconds on my computer.

I'm under pressure to blog this week, because I outed my blog in the card. "Announced" might be the word others would use, but I feel like I've now exposed my little secret: I blog.
