The last couple of years I've struggled with Christmas cards. I enjoy getting them. I enjoy sending them. I even do a Christmas letter. What I don't enjoy is looking for Christmas cards. I have such a time finding the right one. I look at a ton, always picking up and putting back, trying to decide. I finally get discouraged and end up not buying any. Then a few days later I'm right back where I started. Last year I did the photo card. Okay, good idea. Let's do that again this year. Now it becomes a chore to get the family to pose. I don't need or want that hassle. I wish I had thought about this months ago, when we were out somewhere I would have made sure we took a good photo and just use that. Well, hindsight is 20/20. Still I have no cards and no idea when or if I will. I have been to 3 stores. I haven't seen any that work for me.
I really don't need this stress. It takes the fun out of the holidays. I need to stop being so silly and just pick some cards. Oh, why do we do this to ourselves?
Today I vow to buy a box of cards. That's my goal for the day.
Wish me luck!
