All year long I go to the mail box – what is awaiting me when I open it? Bills! All that is about to change! It’s THAT time of year! One of the best parts of the holiday season is coming home to Cards in the mailbox. As I get older however, I notice that less and less people seem to be sending cards.
Last year I was invited to take part in a Spoonie Christmas Card Exchange, and so I rounded up all my unused Christmas cards from previous years and got to writing. Boy was my hand tired! The week of Christmas came and my Mailbox was flooded with Christmas Cards from all over the world. I was thrilled every night when I opened the mail box to find more cards and “meet” new friends. After a huge success last year, I was super stoked to take part this year. December first came, and I had not been invited to any card exchange – So I decided to make one.
I used the PHabulouslife facebook page to create a card exchange event, and invited all my facebook PHriends. Then I took to the few Pulmonary Hypertension Facebook groups that I am apart of and posted the “event.” To my surprise one of the groups does not allow Christmas Exchanges and my post was taken down. Happily in another group my post was seen, and I was invited to take part in the Between PHriends Christmas card exchange. So even though my own personal card exchange has been a bust, I am once again overjoyed to get the chance to take part in an exchange.
If you would like to be added to the current exchange, or take part in an exchange next year – leave me a comment and I will put you on the list!
XOXO
