Wrapping presents and sending cards

On Christmas morning, we get together at a granddaughter's house with 10 other family members.  This morning we wrapped multiple gifts for each person. That takes time but we are set now.  


We haven't gotten Christmas cards out yet and it may be after Christmas day that we do.  We have used email for quite a few years and we plan to do that again.  We do have a reduced pile of paper cards delivered to our mailbox from relatives and friends.  They are now piled on the dining room buffet.  I respect the thought, time, effort and postage of the paper cards.


I just Googled "what % of Americans send Christmas greetings by email?" and the results varied widely, from 20% to 40%.  I realize that many people use the US Post and some of our friends seem to feel that doing so is more elegant and friendly than electronic means.  The use of a computer as opposed to a smartphone may offer a different set of options and email may differ from texting.
