College Correspondence: Keeping up with the Jones' Children
This fall, millions of parents will bid good-bye to their sons and daughters, sending them out of the nest and into the brave new world of college. It is a time of joy, of course, but also concern.


Give Your Correspondence a Personal Touch

We've come a long way from Sumerian signs scratched on clay tables. Writing has evolved from Chinese logographic systems, Maya hieroglyphs and inscribed Indus seals into a sophisticated method of communication practiced in cultural-specific ways throughout the world.


Say It With A Card!

 

The best way to let your friends and family know you are thinking about them is to send them a card! An easy way to remember to send out birthday, anniversary or other special occasion cards is to put a post it note on the top of each month in your calendar and list the name and date of the special days for that month.  Make sure you have plenty of cards ready to go, or you can always send them an e-card.  At the beginning of each month you can write out each card.   Make a note on the outside of the card as to when you want to drop it in the mail.  If you are sending an e-card, you can also pre-write them and then type in the send date that you want that special person to receive it.  That way you know your card will arrive before that special day. Your friends and family will know you care and are thinking about them, and the best part is you'll never be late sending out those cards again!

E-mail them Frequently

I love to get e-mails from my friends and family because I know that they are thinking of me!  Send your friends and family an e-mail and add a picture every now and again so they can see how fast your kids are growing and how great you look!

Sending e-mails with pictures can be daunting with download times and the technical stuff.  I have found using a broadband connection helps immensly in saving time. Before on dial up it would take about 5 minutes to send a picture, but with my high speed connection it takes 30 seconds! 

Right now you can get Road Runner High Speed Online for $29.95 a month with free standard installation and $40 Cash Back!  There's no contract or credit card required. I'm talking 5.0 Mbps! that's triple the speed of standard DSL and 100x faster than dial-up! Click Here to get to the Road Runner website.

Giving Gifts to Friends and Family Out of State

 

Sending gifts to friends and family who live out of state can be expensive with shipping costs the way they are.  Sometimes the shipping can be more expensive than the present itself!  To make sending gifts a little easier, some online stores will ship your gifts you buy online directly to that special person and this can save time and money.  A lot of online stores offer free shipping with a minimum purchase.

 

Another good way to save time and money on gift giving for out of state friends and family is to buy a gift certificate online.  The business you buy a certificate from can either mail it out or e-mail the certificate to your special person.  The method depends on the company you buy the gift certificate from.


Give Anything Lets you purchase gift certificates from a ton of stores and then you have the opportunity of either printing the gift certificate out yourself, have them e-mail the certificate to the recipient, or have them mail the certificate in a fancy envelope!  Check Out Give Anything Right Now!

 

Give Them A Call

It's always nice to hear from a friend or a loved one over the phone.  If you’re like most people, remembering to phone a friend who lives in a different time zone can be a problem, especially if the time difference is four or more hours!  A good piece of advice is to mark a time down on your calendar to call your friends and family each month that live out of state.  For example, you think about your friend Kerry who lives in Seattle, but you always forget to call her until it’s just too late in her time zone.  Instead of forgetting, just write down "Call Kerry at 7:00 pm" in your calendar, your personal organizer or any other device you keep track of your time in.  Weekends are almost always the best time to get a hold of your friends and family, but a good way to know for sure is to ask your friend or loved one when the best time is for her/him, and then mark that time on your calendar.  There will be no more excuses and your friend or loved one will know you took the time to care.
