Christmas mail on its way

[oloriel]

Yesterday, I finally completed the Christmas mail and took it to the post office. So those of you who live further away will probably get it after Christmas. I'm sorry.
(I really have no clue why it takes me so long to start writing Christmas mail. Part of it is that I always want to be original but can't think of an original way of saying "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" but that's OK, isn't it?)

Interestingly, at our rural post office, Post Office Guy wasn't at all shocked that I'm sending out mail into the whole world. Back in Big City, I would get an offended "Why are you sending so many letters to America and everything?" every. Single. Year. Here, Post Office Guy just asked "All within Germany?" when I put my heap of letters on the desk. "Um, no, it's a bit more complicated..." - "No problem, we'll sort it out". Mind you, Post Office Guy comes from India so that may explain why he's more relaxed about international post. :P

Anyway, your letters are on their way. I hope they'll at least arrive this year!

Ja, der Briefträger hat sich extra bis zu uns durchgekämpft. :) Vielen Dank! Und ja, eine Selbsthilfegruppe wär wohl angemessen. "Hilfe, ich bin doch eine Mami!"

Ich habe heute eine alte Bananenschale in meiner Handtasche gefunden. Ich geb wohl alle Illusionen endlich auf und ergebe mich meinem Schicksal *sobsob*
