Outgoing
I am almost caught up on postcards going out. This lot makes up the maximum I can send out at Postcrossings so far, included are two re-sends to cover expired cards ... Hate it when my postcards expire.
I am able to send out nine postcards at a time but once the next three recipients register their cards from me, I'll be able to send out 10 at a time.
Hoped to get more of my received cards posted by now but I am not even close! It is NaNoWriMo time and that is definitely going to be cutting into the time I have available to catch up to penpals I owe letters to. But I figure if I can do at least one a day, I'll be caught up before long. The challenge is doing the envelopes. I cannot make myself mail a dreary envelope ... I'll have to be inventive.
With the postcards above I must post the swap going to Canada and a package to Amy in Maine and a late birthday package to Esther in the Netherlands. But first I need to cut into the amount of words I need to accomplish on my novel today, so I am off to do that now.

Catching Up...
I missed this space. Life has been extremely interesting since I last posted here - and very busy and full. But I am back. I have spent a good deal of yesterday - into the wee hours of this morning, organizing all of the postcards I have received via postcrossings since I was listing them here. I had only gotten up to 3, but I now have 42 from there and it was quite a task scanning and filing all of them. I will post them all in order over the next couple of days, but for now, here is a group shot:
The next step is to catch up on all of my penpal pals I owe letters too [hoo-boy!] But I am looking forward to reconnecting with old friends and making new ones.
