I didn't get as many of my letters written as I'd wanted to, but that's ok. I have 49 more weeks in which to send out to Japan, Canada and everywhere else I've mentioned. :)
On Wednesday there were 3 bits of lovely mail in my mailbox:
1. From a penpal in MO, which oddly enough turned out to be another introductory letter, so she must not have gotten my reply a few weeks ago. I will be writing her today to see what happened. :)
2. This BEAUTIFUL card from fellow blogger and 52 Week-er, Kendall, over at Happy Little Mailboxes. The photo doesn't show it very well, but it is all sparkly with glitter too! I had seen these cards in one of her previous posts and could not believe my good fortune when I was the recipient of one!!! Thank you!!
3. Inside the box in the photo above was a bunch of these
from my friend Eddie in Leeds, UK. I LOVE these things and can't get them here, so he sends me a box periodically. I send him a box of Twizzlers in return when I can. :) Yay for sugary sweet swaps!
There wasn't any post for me on Thursday, but after Bible study I did mail out what I had ready:
It included a reply to my letter from Germany, one to Spain, a thank you card for the walnuts I received from the Poindexter Nut Co., a sticker decorated folded letter, a thank you to a local restaurant, and 3 postcards going to Ireland, OK, and OH. :) 9 pieces in total.
Don't forget, there is still time to enter my giveaway! I will be choosing a winner sometime tomorrow. And also remember that if you want to snail mail with me, you can email me at themodestpeacock@yahoo.com to swap addresses. See you at the mailbox!
I love the glitter. Those cards make me happy. I wish I had more in other country landmarks. Glad you liked it.
