The day after birthdays, graduations, dinner-parties, parties of any kind, and Christmas saw us sitting down to write thank-you notes. Three observations:<br /><br />1. Friends my age from my neck of the woods (Alabama) still do it.<br /><br />2. I give small Christmas gifts to the students in my private studio, and many give gifts to me. I send thank-you notes, of course; in the last 30 years (teaching in California & Texas) I've received only two thank-you notes from those students. I don't fret, I understand they weren't raised any better, and I believe nearly everyone does the best they can with the knowledge they have.<br /><br />3. I've learned that the trendy-fashion girls in their late teens and early 20's, who embrace "preppy" as a trendy-style, are buying stationery and writing letters & thank-you notes! At least something nice is coming out of this.Glenda Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03322058584473373782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259686799198265906.post-82854587226589611432015-11-08T00:30:20.188-08:002015-11-08T00:30:20.188-08:00Thank you for your much-appreciated doses of civil...Thank you for your much-appreciated doses of civilization.<br /><br />http://melissallarena.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Interview-Tips-What-to-Write-in-a-Post-Interview-Thank-You-Note.jpgOld Schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11144953018591590369noreply@blogger.com
