MEME: letters i meant to write
This holiday season, whatever you celebrate, is a rough one for a lot of us in terms of money and stress. Instead of gifts I propose this:
Take the time to write the people closest to you. Send them an email, or a letter in the mail. Tell them how much they mean to you, and why. Share some history. Remind them of why they're so close to your heart. Maybe they don’t know, maybe they do, either way a reminder is a magical thing. Thirty of them. Probably just scratching the surface for most of us. One email a day for the whole month. That's it. Think of how much awesome and wonder we could spread. Between ourselves, our close ones and their close ones. Spread the idea, spread the joy. Thirty emails. That's it. Think of the effect it can have on the people you love, and frankly, on yourself.
Thirty emails. We can all do it. Join me.

from Rosefox, i pass on the meme. except i also suggest pretty actual written cards if you can afford it. This year i plan on using any holiday cards i get as decorations in my house. and i am trying to mail out many myself. although knowing my habits people will be getting holiday cards until march.
so.....
if anyone needs my address, just say so, and if you want a actual dead tree card from me, send me your address.
