Day #245

I didn't write anything on Sunday and obviously didn't get anything on Sunday either, so Monday I had a post-crossing card to Finland and two pen pal letters to send.

The mail brought this wonderful horse postcrossing card from Poland and a nice letter from Cathy T.

Day #244

Here's a post-crossing card to a guy from France who asked for pin-up cards, as well as two pen pal letters.

How nice to receive two letters from little Fred in the Philippines, a great letter from Limner, and a letter from Kathryn, including a sample of her "Zentangus." (I'm still not sure I know what a Zentangus is!

Day #243

This is why it's necessary to post every day! I'm not 100% certain who were the recipients of these things, except that the postcards were post-crossing. The light blue envelope was to a new person who contacted me and the other 3 were to pen pals, but I can't remember which ones. I love my new ceiling wax "B," though!

Loved the post-crossing card from Amish country. Also had nice letters from Cindy Y and Sarah in the UK

Day #242

Good me. I sent a nice thank you note to our hostess for New Year's Eve. Also wrote a letter to someone new who wrote as a result of reading this blog (and thank you, Anna, for the nice things you wrote!). I also wrote short letters to each of my 11 Compassion children, including a picture of Buddy, the puppy I'm bottle feeding. But those were sent electronically, through Compassion!

I love the cute little puppy in the postcard from the Netherlands--I was her very first post-crossing card. Also was very happy to receive a letter from Elvis-fan, Denise in North Carolina!

Day #241

Trying to get past the inertia that descended upon me during the holidays...and deal with the time it takes to bottlefeed and raise a puppy. I did get one rather lengthy letter written today.

Incoming was kinder to me than I deserved. One nice post-crossing card, a letter from Sarah in the UK, and I loved the candy-themed envelope from Cindy here in California.

Day #240

I sent off post-crossing cards today, 7 of them, as well as a pen pal letter and a belated Christmas card.

Of course there was no mail delivery in the US because today is the New Year holiday. I spent all day long figuring stuff out on my new Droid x2 phone, so in lieu of showing you incoming mail, I leave you with this video of our 3-1/2 yr old granddaughter's reaction on seeing the puppet stage that her grandpa and Uncle Ned made for her. Militantly adorable.

Day #239

I sent off a reply to a pen pal this morning.

..and I received a letter from Shallon in Uganda, a Christmas card from Lynn, a nice letter from Marian, and a post-crossing card from Belarus.
