Day 19 - "Snail Mail" vs. Email

I know it's almost 3 months early but I've been thinking about Christmas cards lately. Though I celebrate Yule (as best I can) I was raised in a Christian home and Christmas as always been very dear to me. Not so much the gift giving/receiving but the family time. The decorations. The overall joy of it. For the past 5 years hubby and I have sent out Christmas cards to most (if not all) of our friends and family. This past week I was contemplating it and I wasn't so sure if I should send out tangible cards or ecards.

This got me thinking about "snail mail" vs. e-mail. I'm the type of person that loves to get mail no matter which way. It means someone is either trying to stay in touch or is reaching out after I contacted them. But as I love to write I'm more ... attached you might say to sending and receiving letters through snail mail. Something about having the tangible paper that I can read does something to me. After going through all this I decided to, once again, send out Christmas cards this year.

What are your thoughts? Do you prefer getting personal letters through email or snail mail? Do you prefer to send personal letters through email or snail mail?

P.S. Sorry the posts have been so frazzled and all over the place lately. The days seem to be jumbling together. I can tell what day it is by simply looking and what number post I'm on but part of my brain simply can't believe it's been that long already and the other part feels that it hasn't been near that long. I need a real nights sleep. I need something to do during the day that will keep me awake and focused until I pour myself into bed later that night. What to do...
