I love Christmas. It really is the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. Christmas isn't only about gifts and food. It's about family and friends both near and far.
I haven't checked my box in two days, something I normally do every day when I come in from the Y in the morning. However, I didn't go to the Y yesterday or today, so these cards might have been in my box since Monday. I apologize if they were and I didn't check sooner.
Do you see your card? I have cards from Faye, Karla, my best friend of over 40 years, one I don't recognize at all and wonder who it is, but it's Christmas so it's okay, it might be an organization I get mail from occasionally. There's also one from Judy S. You are all treasured for your love and thoughtfulness this Christmas season.
I'm just about finished with breakfast and it's time to work on Vendetta. Have you gotten special Christmas cards?
I'll leave you with my all-time favorite Christmas song, sung by the only one who matters for this song. Other renditions are okay, but this is the best.
Thanks for reading.

@LadyDuck It's thoughtful of the businesses you deal with to send you cards. I should get one from Lenscrafters. I think that's the only business, other than the office here. I already got that card and is with the others there.

@crazyhorseladycx I have a magnifier. Not to worry. My older son gave it to me as a joke many Christmas's ago. It turned out to be the best present I got that year. I use it all the time.

Very nice. Several sweethearts asked for my address, but I told them I don’t celebrate Christmas. I thought that was very thoughtful. However, Erica insisted on sending me something to cheer me up.
Btw, I don’t send Christmas cards, or you’d be at the top of my list.

I didn't do them for a long time, but since joining myLot, I started sending out cards and find it so much fun. I love sending them. I also love receiving them. I feel connected to the world in a greater way when I send them.

I love this song. When I was little my parents had so many friends that to entertain me with all the Christmas cards they got they strung strings across the living room and hung up all the cards. I had such fun with them.
