May 2011 not fly by so quickly, may it bring all that is good, and let’s remember that life is worth living, so live it to the full!
I am not very good at doing the whole ‘Christmas Card’ thing like they do in England. In South Africa, people haven’t sent cards for years and years. I understand that in the snail mail years, it was probably a good way to keep in contact – at least you’d be in contact once a year. However, I am not sure how relevant it still is in the digital age. I am not even sure what first class post costs these days, but I commit to spending the money I would have on Christmas cards to Charity. I shall split the amount I would have spent between Children of Africa (the charity we run) and The Heart Foundation (as I have kindly used their image on this post).
I have sat down and put together a ‘Contact me in the following ways’ card. Included are the following ways I can be contacted:
-
mobile phone
-
home phone
-
email address x 2
-
facebook
-
linked-in
-
twitter
-
skype x 2
-
yahoo messenger
-
WhatsApp
-
Blackberry messenger
-
Blog
-
Snail mail address
My gosh, it is such a long list, when I look at it. If any of my friends would like me to send the contact card (and I haven’t already), then please let me know and I shall forward it forthwith (by email of course!).
