Chrissie cards written and posted this morning!

> Hello trivvies,
> I'm interested to know if you send Christmas cards through the mail. I
have read that the first Christmas cards originated in England in the
1840's. When I was younger, many people sent cards through the mail. Now,
with "free" email and the rising cost of postage, sending cards seems to be
a dying tradition here in the states. I will be sending about 20 cards this
year. Twenty years ago I sent about 40 a year.
