|  Subject: Birthday/Anniversary card 'organization'  Wed 06 Feb 2008, 7:49 pm | |
| This is sort of an 'organizing' tip so I posted it here.
I was filling out my yearly calendar with birthdays/anniversaries (slightly late I know  ) when I'd remembered reading this tip:
Send out all birthday/anniversary cards once a month for any celebrations during that month. Better for recipients to receive them early rather than late.
Some months I have a few to send, so if I check for the month ahead during the final week of the previous month (hope I haven't lost you!) I should keep 'em all covered 
p.s. As I put names under dates, I also added the year of birth (makes it easier to remember milestones) and star signs.

| This is what I do on a piece of paper
January - Date Name
I then make sure the dates are in chronological order. At the end of each month I do the cards for the following month. I put stickies on the outside of the envelope with the date to mail it by. Then I set them on my desk.
