Six Boxes Of Christmas Cards

   And pictures, address labels, stamps galore, are waiting for me.
   An old address book, that Jane Anders made me one Christmas, and if you closely Debbie C. you were living in New Jersey. Pieces of the past, present and future. The old Rolodex file stills comes out for the holidays, a relative folder, and teacher folder, neighbors near and far. Doctors that I have worked for and doctors that I have seen. ( Bill thinks that sending old shrinks of mine a card, is a tad off!) ( and he wonders why I had to see the shrink?) ( one precious doctor, said he would pay me to come to his office!, he loved my stories! so I left that day and gave him my bill!) Dr. B still sends me, semi naked pictures of he and his wife, with a poinsettia placed correctly from the islands. I have a lot of friends around the world, and they are the most interesting people.
  I never tire of hearing from people, and in this age of knowing each others business, I have so many other ways to visit.
  I do still enjoy snail mail, and a signature, so Christmas cards are still coming from my house.
  My table is strewn with all my gear, and I decided to write a blog. ( Sometimes things overwhelm me, and I have to push the pause button) ( another reason for Season Greetings to my doctor friends!) Clicking away on the keyboard, and putting my thoughts down, help center me. Then I will return, do five cards, and fly away to something else. Do another five or ten, and in a couple of weeks, they will be on their way.
 I think I enjoy the whole process, of touching them, writing personal letters, picking out who gets my crazy Bill Murray pictures! Murray Christmas, again! love him.
  I buy new pens to write with, and think about each person, how they have touched my life in a special way.
  This year is a little different because, my Hart is getting married and I have to make an address list for the bride to be. She needs to be able to read my writing, and that is a horror story. So I have written all of them down, for my Bill to type, for her. For the"save the date" cards, and invitations. So this year, it is a bigger project, but a happy one.
  (my neck is starting to twitch just thinking about things!)
 So I think I will leave you with your thoughts, and go tend to mine.
Please send me your address via this site, or message me, or email me, or text me. Would love to send cards to everyone.
 Tis the Season, Murray Christmas!
