It Just Takes 10 Minutes!

Something that I love is sending and receiving notes and cards in the mail.

In this tech world I suppose posts and texts are easier, but how special is it, that someone takes a few extra special minutes more to send a greeting.

I feel a card or note is like getting a gift.

A gift written and picked out for just me!

Over the years even Christmas cards from folks are few and far between.

I have a box that keeps all the cards and notes I have received over the years.

The old ones from my Momma and Dad, Sister and Brother, are especially heart warming.

This past week I received a Halloween card from a friend and old co-worker.

Matt, always sends me a card at Halloween and Christmas, always.

He writes a bit on the inside of his cards, this year he wrote….

Love his little pumpkin drawings.

The wannabe art teacher in me gives me a love of card making.

I worked on Halloween cards to send out to a few folks I know would love them, especially Matt.

I spent time picking out special images, and this year I even made my own stickers for the envelopes, what fun!

Hope Matt loved the scary image I picked out for his card.

My friend Matt is fun, enjoys life, shares my love of flea markets, and I miss him.

Hope to see him again one day, but for now cards to each other will have to do.

Why don’t you all take an extra 10 minutes this Christmas, especially in these troubled days, and send cards with special greetings on the inside to all you love.

Love to all.
