I have not sent any Christmas cards

Behold the display of twee looking cards. I have not sent any. I am not trying to be 'alternative' or 'edgy' (and what are those labels anyway- most times I see them used, they are used as labels to sell products or 'experiences' (yeuch......I'm with John Lennon on this one- you can't buy experiences; '...life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans'), just a freak combination of domestic circumstances that will lead to:-

-more money (perhaps an end to sheer panic when the next bill comes to the house- maybe I'll be able to up my clothing budget from £25 (my total spending for the last 4 years!))

-a nicer kitchen

-complete breakdown (perhaps!).

So- I'm thinking of sending an e-mail round to my Christmas list. Not very personal, but I really want to keep in touch.

I'm thinking of including one of 'madpriest's' (see links) recent thoughts:-

'It is what most people haven't achieved in their lives that makes them better people than those who boast most about their achievements'.

I've blogged on this before- if you send Christmas letters- stop boasting!!! Tell me how it is- life with its mixture of light and shade, triumph and despair, hopes and fears... please don't send me letters that make the early parts of the Acts of the Apostles sound like a bit of a failure...

Right...I'm back to praying and I'm stopping ranting....
