Today in the mail was my fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth Christmas card since starting my little BagOfNothing experiment. Talk about a full mail bag.
Card #5 comes from ‘Cowboys Homer’ who lives in Weatherford, TX, which is only about a ten minute drive from my hometown of Mineral Wells, TX. Back in the day, we would be rivals. Well, I guess we still kinda are since we are competing in fantasy football.
Card #6 is from local readers Andy and Katie of Keller, Texas. I think I work less than ten minutes from them in Westlake, TX.
Card #7 is my second out of state card. It’s from long-time reader Fay of Michigan. I bet it’s much colder up there than it is down here.
Card #8 is another out of state card from Andy and Steve of Minnesota. It looks like they work for the company known for a little blue box. Too bad I didn’t know them when I got WifeGeeding a pair of pearl earrings from that store a couple of Christmas’s ago.
Card #9 is not only my second hand made card, but my first out of country card! It comes from Heather of Canada, who mentions that if WifeGeeding and I are ever in Toronto, dinner is on her.Â
Going into this little experiement I was expecting about 10 cards. I’m just one away.
That was fast! I mailed it in Monday.
Amazingly fast … I mailed my Saturday! Perhaps CanadaPost has listened to some of the whining!
