So when I last wrote about thank-you cards I had approximately 10 cards written.
And I still have approximately 10 cards written a few days later.
hm......
Through this, and life in general, I'm realizing that I'm particularly good at setting up systems for other people to use! Library catalogs, websites, virtual shared spaces, home-organizational systems, and brilliant set-ups for thank you cards! Seriously, it's awesome. I have a whole table dedicated to it: all the supplies are there, the instructions for writing a good thank-you card is well displayed - there's no reason NOT to use this wonderful system.
Well, except for eating dinner with good friends from out of town... and eating dinner with the husband.... and watching the "Count of Monte Cristo" [a French made-for-tv version that Jon really enjoys] and looking at my cute nephew's hair, and then surfing blogs....!
So - I have good systems down-pat. Now it's just for eliminating the distractions around them.... There's always tomorrow and my deadline is end of February! Hold me to it folks :o)
Sara-as I am about 40 cards in...I have found that setting a goal of 3 a day is very manageable! I also had wanted to go for 10 a day, but found it was very difficult to find the time to sit down and write 10. So, if you find that it is still difficult to get going, try breaking it down further (maybe even to 5)?
