A Little Behind

Good afternoon!

I'm a little behind in posting so for now, here's the incoming and outgoing for Wednesday and Thursday.

I'll post an update later this evening regarding A Month of Letters.

 

 

Here's my outgoing for both days.

 

 

An official Postcrossing card going to China.

 

 

An official Postcrossing card on its way to Hong Kong.

 



 

An official Postcrossing card Traveling to Ukraine.

 

 

This is going to my swap partner for One Sentence a Day January Swap.

 

On the receiving end....................

 

 

I received an amazing letter from my penpal Rachael.

She doesn't know it but I am a HUGE fan of Elvis Presley.

I love that stamp!

 

 

A pretty card and a nice note from my penpal Ally.

 

 

Adventures of the Traveling Postcard R4 arrived.

My signature will be the 4th one on this particular card and then I will forward it on to someone else as soon as partners are assigned for the next round.

Also, the sender enclosed a couple of extra postcards which I thought was very cool.

 

 

This is from a swap called 50 stickers.

 

That's it for Wednesday and Thursday mail.

 

 

Weekend Show and Tell Mail

Monday, Monday, please let it be the weekend again.

Well, it's back to the grind, at least for people who work.

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend.

 

Here's all my mail that came in and went out.

 

 

Incoming:

 

 

 

An official Postcrossing card traveled from Florida.

The sender writes:

Hi JarieLyn-What a great name!

I'm Sera & live in connecticut with my husband & 3 cats.

We vacationed in Maine last year- you'd love this place-trains, old cars & the ocean.

I applaud your love of snail mail there's an art to it that's rapidly dying-& that's sad.

Happy 2013!

Sera

 

 

An official postcrossing card from Russia.

The sender writes:

Hi JarieLyn :)

The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.

~St. Auustine~

 

How true, how true!

 

 

 

This postcard comes from a swap I joined, "A Postcard for Your Thoughts."

 

 

This beautiful package comes from another swap, "Surprise in an Envelope"

 

I loved everything inside.

Here's a peek.

 

 

A lovely note written inside of a beautiful Thomas Kinkade notecard.

Southern Lady Magazine, a piece of red velvet fabric, some die cuts, stickers, A true vintage page from a magazine and a scrap of paper.

All very nice items that I really like.

 

A big fat missive from my penpal Lisa in France.

Weekend Snail Mail

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday.

This should have been posted on Sunday instead of today.

 

Here's my weekend mail.

 

A very nice letter from another blogger and as of this moment, a new pen pal.

Check out her photography blog.

It's pretty cool.

Also, here's a link to her other blog.

 

 

An official Postcrossing card from Taiwan.

It looks like paint on canvas.

 

The sender writes:

Hello JarieLyn,

Warm greetings from Taipei, Taiwan :)

This postcard is Taiwan's top 10 tourist spot, truly a very beautiful beach in Taiwan's East!

Hope you'll like it :)

Happy New Year <3

Cassie.

 

Yes, I do like it.

 

 

This is from a swapper for Surprise in an envelope swap.

Cool postcards, notecards, and stickers.

 

 

That's all that came in on Saturday and zero mail on Friday.

 

I sent out a few items but I only took a photograph of one.

I forgot the others.

 

 

This package is going to one of two partners for A Bit Of Everything Swap.

I forgot to take a photo of the other one for this swap.

 

I also sent out something for Just A Happy Note Swap but forgot to photograph it.

 

A birthday card for my brother, also forgot to photograph.

 

Here's what I dropped in the mailbox on Monday even though the post office was closed.

 

This is a re-send for a postcard swap that never made it to its destination.

Hopefully, this postcard will make it to New York.

 

 

These three postcards are for another postcard swap, A Postcard For Your Thoughts.

One is going to Arizona; one is on it's way to Oklahoma and another is traveling to Illinois.

 

 

These are official Postcrossing cards.

One going to Pennsyvania, one going to Sweden, and one going to Belarus.

 

 

This is going to Germany.

This is week # 6 of Six Weeks of Snail Mail Swap.

 

And that's it for the weekend and Monday mail.

 

I hope everyone has a happy day.
