The calendar unofficially turned to the holiday season this weekend. With that, time to dust off the lights, tree, manger scene (have one) and other various trinkets from the closet for the 30 days (or 90 in the case of some of my neighbors) of decorating the property in celebration of xmas/new year's.
The season also brings about the process of sending holiday cards to friends and family. Yes, I send them out. It all started for me in the early 2000's as my dog Angus was my poser for said cards and a fine poser he was! Whether he was singing 'fa-la-la-la' (he was actually yawning) or throwing a smile out with the Seadog eye patch on, he was a natural. Once Angus moved on, I had to go out of the box a bit for card ideas but had quite a bit of older pictures at my disposal along with a creative (warped?) sense of humor/imagination. Below are some I've sent.
I buy a pack of 20 cards/pictures each year and I'll bet probably 15 of those go directly from mailbox to recycle bin for the recipients but for those five individuals that maybe had a bad day and my card gave them at least a grin, the process is all worth it.
For the 20 individuals, this year's card is currently in the editing room so stay tuned.
