It’s January 1, 2011, and I’m baaaaccckkk! Did you miss me?
The main reason for my blogging hiatus was that I made a bit of house history of my own last month. That on top of the usual Christmas craziness meant that I had to put blogging on the back burner. But I am typing this from my new living room and though there are still boxes to unpack, I wanted to get back in the blogging habit.
I’m trying out some new-to-me themes for the blog as well. This is my first Sorting Saturday post.
My mission today is to sort through the Christmas cards I received this year. It’s time to reclaim my dining room table and buffet, where they’ve been on display. Some have photos I want to hang onto, some have personal messages I want to keep. Many offer congratulations on my new home and I plan to include some, if not all, of these in a scrapbook I’ll be making about my first house.
Do you keep all of your Christmas cards? What do you do with them?

I’m trying ‘new to me’ Daily Themes this year as well. Welcome back, and best wishes!
Thanks, Bill!
I keep most of them, except for a few, such as cards from insurance and real estate agents.
