You have the greatest cards. Especially like the lady in green!

I gave up on Xmas cards a few years ago and never looked back. While they're pretty, I think the process silly, and unaccountably guilt-inducing for so many people. When did guilt become the "real" meaning of Christmas? The way I see it, if you're dear to me and I to you, you know what's going on in my life and have no need of a card, because we talk all the time. If we are so estranged, through time, distance, or circumstance that we only see fit to communicate once a year, then we don't really give a damn what's going on in each other's life, and why keep up the pretense? For Pete's sake, I even hear from my dentist twice a year!

Christmas cards, like letter writing and novels, are becoming an endangered species. It pains me to see fewer and fewer cards through the mail box each December. And its with the greatest reluctance that I cull yet another address from my Christmas card mailing list because I've not heard from the recipient since who knows when. Don't give me that crap about cards being eco-unfriendly. Its people who can't be asked to recycle them. And Lord knows there's loads of fabby uses for greeting cards! Buy new ones made of recycled paper and sold only in your favourite charity shop too. There now. Any further protest is just another excuse to bury what should be one of the pleasures of the Advent season! And that's quite enough rantage from me for one day! LOL!
