Christmas Gratitude Cards

--by Spoonerism, posted Mar 23, 2011

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share a simple thing I have been doing over this Christmas period.

We have a great drug store (chemist) called Boots here in the UK and I found some great small Christmas cards on a deal... each card worked out at something like 9p a card! I found some Christmassy (red, gold and green) glitter pens and wrote variations of the following:

Hello there!

This card is for you to thank you for all the work you do throughout the year.

People nowadays live their lives at a crazy pace, and that sometimes means that your work gets taken for granted.

So on behalf of everyone whose lives you touch every day: THANK YOU and MERRY CHRISTMAS.

So far I think I have handed out about 35 cards to Nurses, Street sweepers, train guards, train drivers, bus drivers and anyone who seems like a good target.

I hope when they open them they give them a little break from their day's work and who knows, maybe a little smile... :-)

Hope you're having a lovely day.
