disorganized person it is a good idea to start a collection of birthday greeting cards so that you do not have to make a trip every time a birthday comes up. You can go and get some greeting cards or gifts suitable for kids, some suitable for teenagers and some suitable for adults and even some for seniors.
When you are putting your collection of gifts or greeting cards together, keep some of the people that you would normally send a birthday card to in mind. If you pause and consider that most of your friends are in their twenties, you probably will not want to buy a bunch of birthday cards that make jokes about being older than dirt. Actually, those might not work for anybody.
Remembering to send people gifts or greeting cards on their birthday can really be a nice gesture. If you do it right, it is even better. Try to keep in mind where and when they will be opening the card; if they are going to be at a party or if they might be opening the card in front of their children you might want to keep the subject matter a little more tame than you might if it was something they would read alone.
