Mother’s Day

We all have a special place in our harts for our mothers; she is the unsung hero of the family. She was looking after us before we were born and no matter how old we get, we will always look to her for support and help.



There is not enough space on this blog to name all the ways that my mother helps me day in day out, let alone all the ways that your mothers help you. We would never be able to repay them for all the help and love they have given to us and they would not want us to, but this Mothers Day lets try to show them how much we love and appreciate them.




Thank You Mum

Birthday and Anniversary cards

Now at the start of a new year I am busy adding all the birthdays and anniversaries to my new calendar and diary, even giving each one a two week pre warning in the hope that I do not forget any this year. I got to thinking that if I got all the birthday cards that I need for the year; ready to send off then I will have less chance of forgetting them. So with my list of birthdays for the year I went shopping online and many of the websites give discounts on cards, the more you buy the bigger the discount.



At the start of the New Year after the holidays many people are all shopped out, so all of the retailers are putting on sales to get people shopping again. This is another opportunity to save money as well as having all your birthday and anniversary cards ready to send out when you need them.



Now that have a list of all the birthday and anniversary cards for the coming year why not look at all the Christmas card you received this year and make a list so that you do not forget anyone next year. Armed with your lists you can start picking your cards, many websites let you add cards to your basket then go back at a later date to keep shopping before you check out and all from the comfort of your home.



Now all you have to do when the cards arrive is put in your own message, address the envelope and remember to post it in time to get to its destination. Well, not if the person you sending the card to lives in America because companies like www.greetingcarduniverse.com will let you put your message on the card and you tell them where and when (give enough time travel by post) and they will post off the cards for you.



Let’s hope that this year is the year that we do not forget any birthdays or anniversaries.
