ambitious_wenchAh, the holidays. How good it is to actually have a list of folks to send cards to this year. I don't have any relatives that I am close to, other than some cousins in Alaska, and they are not too keen on the "Weird Pagan-Lesbian Cousin Back East Who Occasionally Calls And Talks About Our Childhood."
I have a father somewhere, but even my two half brothers don't hear from him. And to be honest, I don't have much connection with my half brothers, either. Since Techi's Mom died this April, I don't have her to send a card to anymore, either. In fact, we are thinking of not even putting up a tree this year because of her death. We miss her terribly, and it was always such a joy to have her over for holidays, her delight in the decorations. This is the first year since her death, and we are hurting still.
So when the opportunity to join the Frithmas Card list on Alt.Devilbunnies arose, I grabbed at it with both hands. I love writing cards. I love finding the right cards to send, and then personalizing them for each recipient. I can't draw worth a damn. I can stitch, but I just didn't have time to make Hardanger ornaments this year.
I won't say what I am sending out. You will have to wait until you get it in the mail to see!
Happy Holidays,
E. Howe.
