Twenty-six of the last twenty-seven years, Sharon and I have sent out a Christmas Card. Dissatisfied with the quality of the photos on commercial cards like Shutterfly, I built my own format and process. Unfortunately, this was a lot of work... Additionally, the number of cards that we send out has exploded in the last twenty years with the inclusion of people from SEAS, Outlaws, Jesuit High, Sutter Health, Adventist Health and Deterding Ranch.
Five years ago, I decided to go back to a commercially printed greeting card. After moving my database from Outlook into iOS contacts, I printed mailing lablels for the first time two years ago. Everything has gone a lot quicker!
I mailed 143 Christmas Cards today. I mailed three more on Friday, December 6.
In 2023, I mailed 136 Christmas Cards On Saturday, December 2. I dropped three more in the mail the next day.
In 2022, I mailed 127 Christmas Cards on Thursday, December 15. I dropped two more in the mail on Friday, December 16.
In 2021, I mailed 121 Christmas Cards on Wednesday, December 8.
In 2020, I dropped 119 Christmas Cards at the post office on Sunday night, December 6.
In 2019, I dropped 73 Christmas Cards at the post office on Tuesday night, December 17 and 33 more on Wednesday morning, December 18.
