Today's outgoing mail

Hello. I planned on writing this post early this morning but as usual, procrastination took hold of me. I'm sure some of you can relate to that. Ha ha.  Well, here's the mail I sent out today. One Postcrossing and one pen pal letter.

This image of the Cumberland River in downtown Nashville is headed to Russia.

I write: Dear Olesya, I live in Las VEgas, Nevada but I really love Nashville, Tennessee. Sometimes I can see and hear spirits. I belong to a group where we practice giving each other readings. Wishing you all the best. <3 JarieLyn

A letter on the way to Rachel in Illinois.

It's a hot one here, but I'm not complaining. I feel very fortunate to have the sun shine down upon me.

Have a great evening.

Postcrossings-Southern Style

Hello, it's another gorgeous day here in Las Vegas. I've been working on some pen pal letters, postcrossings, and my project for "Liberate Your Art".  I thought I'd just share a few of the postcrossings going out. I just noticed that all the postcards I chose are from the south. I didn't do it purposely, but at least it gives me a cohesive theme for today's post. Enjoy!

To: Chingle in Utah

I write: Hello! It's a beautiful sunny day here in Las Vegas. This card makes me smile. I love baby horses. My husband and I were fortunate enough to attend the Kentucky Derby last year and it was an amazing experience. I wish for you many amazing experiences throughout your life. <3 JarieLyn

To: Elke in Germany

I write: Dear Elke, I wish you a very happy birthday. (Feb.18) I hope that you et lots of good mail for your special day. Nashville is my favorite city that I've visited so far in the United States. There's so much to do there. Las Vegas is pretty cool too. (Where I live) I am a 50 year old woman who has an ecclectic assortment of hobbies. All the best to you. <3 JarieLyn

To: Kathy in China

I write:  Hello lovely Kathy, greetings from Las Vegas, Nevada where I currently reside. My husband and I went to Kentucky last year for our vacation and it is absolutely beautiful. We attended the Kentucky Derby and had so much fun. I hope to be able to go again someday. The mint julep is the famous drink that everyone has over there. Personally, I didn't like the tast at alll. Hope all your dreams come true. <3 JarieLyn

Toodles!

TGIF Mail

Friday is just another day for me but I still get happy when it arrives because it means time with my husband on the weekend. We don't always do much but the possibility is always there and that makes me smile. What do you like to do on the weekends?

I drive to my post office every single day to check my mail. Who thinks I'm crazy?  Am I obsessed with mail?  Yes, I am and I love it. I have received some lovely mail this week as always. Here's what filtered in and out the last couple of days not including today. I have not gone to the post office as of yet. I have written one letter so far today and plan to write at least one more.

 

This is week 2 from my partner for the Themed Messages RR postccard swap on Postcrossing.

Hi JarieLyn, this lovely old building is a favourite of mine in downtown Belleville.

The birds love it too, often perching along the roof line.

Sadly, it is showing signs of decay & is currently blocked off for fear of collapse.

Happy Postcrossing!

Liz.

Hello JarieLyn!

I'm already that age that I recognize this cars.
