Remember the other day when I told you the story of mailing Christmas cards, and how I ended up having a whole new set of cards I got from the clerk lady? Well, a new thought just occurred to me: What if the sole reason I got these New Year’s cards was because the lady wanted to make sure I wouldn’t be using cards with ribbons anymore? Well, even though that thought just crossed my mind, I’d like to think the best of people. I’ll rather continue to tell myself it was the goodness and kindness of the clerk lady that blessed me with a new set of greeting cards, and not her desire to avoid trouble next time I show up to send greetings. And in case you haven’t gotten any season’s greetings from me this year – here we go:

Merry Christmas, and a happy new year!
