I love reading them tho' - just for the gag factor [you know, you see a car crash and you shouldn't look but you HAVE to sort of thing]<br /><br />My favorites are my older relatives and neighbors who send the ones detailing their health issues. I am happy they are fine, but really? The colonoscopy report, including number of polyps found is just a wee bit too much information Uncle Billy. [That isn't me trying to be funny. I have, in fact, received THAT letter.]<br /><br />Best Christmas card [of this genre] this year was from a best friend of my parents and [I kid you not] she signed the card "It is going to be a rough Christmas as our Bob was severely burned last week. He is intensive care."<br /><br />How do you respond to that?<br /><br />Anyway I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.SkippyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479661523059481730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719379004963608138.post-90956318713342470752010-12-22T11:07:42.235-08:002010-12-22T11:07:42.235-08:00Umm, Merry Christmas?

Seriously, even welfare people manage to get married a time or two before they turn 26. <br /><br />(Only kind of joking. :) )Ruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04217026218961932530noreply@blogger.com
