One thing that most of us have learned first-hand in the past two years is how many different tasks can be accomplished entirely online.

But this year it’s been difficult to rustle-up the energy to get the card-sending thing together. Confession: that’s mostly due to my lack of access to a printer for creating the address labels, and the fact that my hands don’t work quite as well as they used to for holding a pen for hours on end.
