All Day Long.............

 

I am as slow as a seven year itch.

It took me all day long but I managed to write a few letters and one postcard.

 

Here's the outgoing mail:

 

 

A valentine and a letter to a family friend I haven't seen since the age of 16.

She was kind enough to add her information to my postable account so she's the first one to check off my list.

 

 

The other side.

 

 

This is for Decorate an Envelope With Hearts, Swap

 

 

The other side.

 

 

Valentine's for two special little boys.

 

 

This is going to another LetterMo participant whose info was in my postable account.

 

 

Going to another LetterMo participant.

 

 

And another LetterMo participant.

 

Thanks to Angie for inspiring the placement of my postage stamps.

 

So............... that's four checks for my postable account.

I have lots more to go.

 

Incoming:

 

My incoming always makes me smile, especially when it comes from great penpals.

 

 

 A letter from Angie.

This is the best envelope yet.

I love it.

 

 

And a letter from Lynn.

I just made a comment on her blog this morning about how I like her hot air balloon.

I had no idea that it was for me.

:)

 

 

 

This is from the postcard swap, I feel Used.

Vintage, postmarked postcards.

My husband will especially like the sheephorn.

The bunny at the top is a notecard with a note from the swapper.

 

It's day 8 of A Postcard A Day Swap and I haven't received one yet.

I must be the close to the last on everyone's list.

 

 

Have a great weekend everyone!

 

 



A little slower but still writing.

I made a lot of progress yesterday so it's no wonder that it seems I barely made a dent today.

 

Here's what I mailed out:

 

 

An official Postcrossing card staying here in the USA, Kansas to be exact.

 

 

This is for the Postcard A Day swap on it's way to Hanford, CA.

 

 

A letter in a handmade envelope.

 

 

The back.

 

 

A reply letter to a LetterMo participant.

 

Now for the incoming :)

 

I recognized the handwriting on this one and it immediately brought a smile to my face.

Its from Angie.

I love that glittery tape and the cute owl stamp.

The card is quite adorable too.

 

A PC, A notecard and a letter swap.

It's all very nice. I love the postcard.

 

 

An official  postcrossing card that is so cute from Finland.

The sender writes:

Hi from Finland!

This is vintage card from 1927.

"Life is Game, Game is Life"

Best wishes from Mari.

 

 

An official Postcrossing card from Germany.

The sender writes:

Dear Jarie Lyn,

My name is Evelyn and I live in Berlin/Germany.

I am 46 years old.

My occupation is a secrettary.

I work at an organization which is busy with reparation of Nazi's in justice to jew in the time from 1933 to 1945 in the area of former GDR.

The work has begun only after the reunification of both german states and now is almost finished.

I have a daughter, she does not live anymore with me, she is 23 years old.

I gladly go away, read books and do manual labours.

Best wishes,

Evelyn.

 

Wow, that is really a great greeting from a postcrosser.

These are the best ones for me no matter what the front looks like.

 

So that's my mail.

And I said it's day five, but really it's only day four officially because we don't county Sunday.

But I'll probably continue to confuse myself and others.

It's still day five for me because I wrote something every day of the month so far.

 

I've been experimenting on my computer to make labels and other things but so far it's been a total failure.
