remember birthdays

So far, everyone has been sent a birthday card. Only one person’s was sent late, and another person, err, was sent theirs a totally the wrong time of year.

But other than that it has been a marvelous success!

Birthdays have a habit of sneaking up on me. Or, more accurately, I have a habit of forgetting they’re there and end up falling right over them. Facebook gives notifications and makes it easy to leave a quick “happy birthday!” message for whoever it is, but I miss birthday cards. I miss sending and getting things through the post.

This year I vow to send as many cards through the post as possible. Whether they’re on time or not!

It’s not about birthdays per say: it simply feels good to do something for somebody.
