		<description>I hate taking down the Christmas decorations. I think it&#039;s tedious, not to mention depressing. I would just leave everything out all year long, but then I might seem a little crazy...

		<description>Ooops. So embarrassing. I didn&#039;t realize the mistake until now. I corrected it. Thanks! :-) Actually, now it makes more sense. I was a bit confused why they have a hospital AND a rescue mission...</description>

		<description>Great! Thank you for this. I save my cards every year (I used to teach CCD and would use them for crafts for the kids, but even though I don&#039;t teach any more, I still save the cards, in Ziplock bags in with my Xmas decorations.) They&#039;re building up and now I have somewhere to send them. 

Just a note, this is St. Jude&#039;s Ranch for Children and is not affiliated with St. Jude Hospital. Same saint, different cause. :)</description>

		<description>Not fair, that I am just reading this! I have already thrown my Christmas cards away (ugh). What a great way to recycle your holiday cards. Promise me, that you will post this again next year, around the 26th-That&#039;s when I start taking all the trimmings down and craving the percieved normalcy of the &quot;I will feel so much better after the holidays are over syndrome&quot;.....
