I sent two cards on the 25th:

• A birthday card and gift to my sister in South Carolina
• A much-delayed Christmas card to my nephew in Colorado. (I told him to consider it a St. Patrick’s Day card.) In my defense, he was on a cross-country drive around the holiday, and then he arrived in Colorado and was living in an old school bus converted into a tiny house, with no way of receiving mail, and then his mom, who had said I could mail stuff to her to get to him, moved and I didn’t have her new address. In any case, it took me a while to figure out how to get a letter to him.

Only four more days!
