For those of you wondering where my annual letter is, I just finished writing them on Christmas Day, and then spent an hour this evening licking envelopes and applying stamps. (Note to self: always buy self-seal envelopes.) I'll be taking them directly to the post office, either later this evening (which is almost tomorrow) or sometime tomorrow. So you should be seeing them in a mailbox near you in a few days. This year's count was 45 letters. You can see why this takes me a while!
