I love love love it as a tradition, but I know my own go in the garbage a few days after the holiday ends - so in our budget planning the expense of cards went. If I am giving a gift personally and find the perfect card, I will attach it to the gift. <br />I like the idea of Simple. Do more fun holiday things and less "because we have to" things. Except the tree - I do adore the Christmas tree and it's probably our favourite tradition. But yes -- all non breakable bulbs!!! <br />(and I realized my typing error - it's supposed to say 2 months away!!! ugh)LA Botcharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09045857399816360885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-65252652520602299542016-10-25T20:08:25.178-05:002016-10-25T20:08:25.178-05:00The easiest way to deal with Christmas is to be Je...The easiest way to deal with Christmas is to be Jewish.

I love simplicity, and like you, with cats we keep our decorating to a minimum... a wreath high up on the wall. A tiny tree with lights that fits in the glass curio cabinet. My grown kids and us exchange Amazon wish lists and set a reasonable limit, so we all end up with things we'd really like to have, and no one goes crazy on the spending.Josie Two Shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18388032819905416258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-50804019937253050882016-10-25T10:16:11.590-05:002016-10-25T10:16:11.590-05:00I gave up on the decorations and the cards and sav...I gave up on the decorations and the cards and saved a bundle. Cards are expensive and the stamps are just well expensive. The pressure of getting them done became too much. I do a lot of Merry Christmas via the blog and Facebook. That's enough.<br /><br />We are down to doing very little for Christmas. I love that. Jesus is the reason for the season anyway.<br /><br />Have a fabulous day my friend. ☺Sandeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785788498697004273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-35205424531493856142016-10-25T09:01:39.146-05:002016-10-25T09:01:39.146-05:00I am impressed that you started addressing holiday...I am impressed that you started addressing holiday cards already. Save yourself an hour and order your stamps online, the mailperson will deliver them and I don't think there is an extra fee ( not positive though). pilch92https://www.blogger.com/profile/12263559408792146826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-6824723387247463112016-10-25T06:30:25.805-05:002016-10-25T06:30:25.805-05:00i told chubby that i thought of you immediately wh...i told chubby that i thought of you immediately when i saw the painting he is giving away. :) i like your choice of 'tree'.TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.com
