M-W Mail

Good Morning Readers! First I'd like to give a huge Thank You to all of you have taken a moment to check out my swap on Swap-bot and I am so happy a number of you have chosen to join one or both of them. (For those of you still interested you can view them by going here).

It's been a bit of a slow mail week here in OK; I did however, get a number of good pieces in! Mostly postcards so far our mail contributions this week came from Postcrossing, Walltype, Swap-bot and for the first time in a while I received a piece from Send Something! Let's get to some mail, shall we?

From Rikka in Finland a card featuring architect Alvar Aalto, another beautiful Michigan card from Laura, and from Sheri a card from her favorite spot on her California road trip.

A wonderful King Aurthur-esqe card from A.Jefferson, from Sophie and awesome card from Phoenix (doesn't it make you want to go visit?) and the most adorable card I have from NH-thank you Pat for the black bear! :)

Sheri sends us a great card from Cincinnati (another first), from Martina in Zagreb a lovely summer deck chair that is making me forget its getting cold outside! Finally for this set from Emily in CA we have a photo that she took herself! You can have your own postcards published like Emily at Simply Postcards.

My first card from Malaysia! Thank you  Raymond! From a user in China we have some ancient architecture in the forest, and Naomi sends us a pretty cool Michigan card! It seems I am popular with the Michigan natives this week! 

 And from Miss Lauren we have an adorable Thanksgiving day card!



Thank you all for the great mail! I have some time today to get some of mine out. I have a few postcard swaps due, a couple of letters ready and I found a new postcard project that I will be posting about to help a swap friend out! Happy Mailing

Fat and Happy Mailbox Thursday!!!!!

Today was a pretty darn good day to be my mailbox! I got 8 postcards in total from Postcrossing, Swap-Bot, Walltype and Send Something. Talk about a pretty good spread, huh?

And also in my mailbox today (it wasn't quite as much of a surprise but still) I got the goodies I ordered to surprise other people trips to the mail!



Quiet Wednesday Post

Got a few postcards in the mail today, but to be fair I only sent a few myself. Today's out going went to England, the UK (x's 2), Missouri, Nevada and Virginia.

I sent out two to Swap-bot (3 recipes), 3 to users on Walltype and a letter to Patty over at Just Letter Rip ( who I hope is feeling better after her emergency appendectomy!!!)

One of my postcards today came from Walltype....First up from Pat, a card from Graceland she picked up on vacation-perfect because I have ALWAYS wanted to visit there



Second, we have a very cool and different card from Roxy on Send Something 

and the last arrival for the day is a card from a user on Swap-bot that lives in Oregon, who told me one random thing about herself (Just ran her first 5k!)

Tonight I have a couple of things to work on. I have to send out one postcard and I plan to write a letter to my newly requested penpal in Germany from Letternet and also a letter to a woman in Sweden who reached out when she saw my blog!

(Looks like I will have some help writing tonight...)

Late post!

Sorry for the delay folks! Just a quick line to say that I got a whole mess of mail today

• 2 Postcrossing cards
• 4 postcards from Walltype
• and 1 postcard Send Something!

Also there were two letters, one came from a girl on Send Something who lives about 20 minutes away from me and a second one from Patty over at Just Letter Rip.

Today's outgoing mail was on the lighter side with cards going to Austria, Texas and Rhode Island. I promise to have a real update with pictures tomorrow--I'm off to write at least one of the 4 letters that I have to answer!
