Glad you got it Erlinda!

I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind.
Some come from ahead and some come from behind.

I also go the second card!! Dh loved the money. I had three sets for him. He gave me a funny look, 'you had people send you money?' But he loved it. I love that I have friends willing to help! Thanks so much!

"I'm telling you. People come and go in this Forest, and they say, 'It's only Eeyore, so it doesn't count.' They walk to and fro saying, 'Ha ha!' But do they know anything about A? They don't. It's just three sticks to them. But to the Educated - mark this, little Piglet- to the Educated, not meaning Poohs and Piglets, it's a great and glorious A." --Eeyore, The House at Pooh Corner

Thanks BEE! I got the second card (which you sent first). Husband loved the money. He got three sets, he looked at me funny, 'you had people send you money?' Yep. Thanks again!

all4thedreamgiver, I'm still waiting for your address, hence the reason you haven't received a postcard yet!

If you'd like to send me an email or private topic with it I'd gladly send you one!

Ananya, did you receive a card yet? I sent it before Christmas.

Ananya, have you received mine as well?

umm....does that mean you didn't get it? It was a small attempt to make you smile.

I have a new address! Yay! Out my old apartment, and into a newer, prettier one-- I want to send stuff out, but in the move, lost all my addresses for people. Anyone who wants a friendly, sent-for-no-reason-card, please just email me your address again. msradha@gmail.com

yay! I love mail for no reason!

When I came back from my travel last week, two cards that had got lost were waiting for me in post. Thanks to both Simone and Eeyorelynn I finally got them.

Eeyorelynn,
you made my day! I was so so so touched with the pains you've gone to fill the envelope with so much of physical joy. I loved the small red and green dots that were inside the envelope, when they spilled over my bed and over me... i had tears in my eyes. It was so thoughtful of you. I loved the christmas tree cut outs. It did not really matter that I did not get it on time, the only thing that mattered was that I got it. It would have been a dear loss otherwise.

I tremendously appreciated you quoting Asa in your card. That's one sentiment I carry with me when I feel heavy with negativity, and the moment i remember it, i feel considerably lighter again. Its a tremendous thing, sharing this beautiful blue sky amongst all of us who are so far away from each other.

Thank you so so so much, oh! special being, you lit up my life that day in ways that you probably will never know. A big hug to you, for just being u. Totally, totally love u.

Just an interesting little article I stumbled on today!

YAY!!! I thought it was lost! I was worried you wouldn't get it because of the confetti. Glad I could make you smile.

I recently did a trip to the mystical land of Peru across the seven seas... and in true QL tradition went nuts buying postcards. I think i spent many dollars on this.

To cut the story short I have hoardes of lovely picture post cards from Peru - Lima, Qosco(Cuzco), Machu Pichhu, Inka Trail, and the Tambopata Reserve (Amazon Rainforest) that I would like to send out. If anybody on this thread is still interested in recieving them, PT me with your recent address, and I'll post away.

Well I got two postcard from club members during my absence from OL. I got a cute Christmas card from MBB and I also got a postcard from Ananya. Thanks X 2!

I also sent two postcards as per request to Marcia Dorsey and they were returned as undeliverable. If MD will forward current address I will forward the two postcards via regular mail.

I have enjoyed all the correspondece over the years but I am retired from sending postcards except to a few family members and a couple of close freinds. ( I just got tired of fooling with it.)

Ananya, I received a Peru (Cuzco) postcard from you this last week! Thank you so much! I showed it to my grandmother who thought the dolls in the photo were too beautiful!

I have to admit I've been a tad slack with the postcards lately. Will try post one off before I go to Thailand. Otherwise, you'll probably receive one from Thailand when I'm there.

Thanks again!

i recently dug out my ql postcards/cards for a photo challenge. Ananya, I used one from you for a 'place you want to travel' shot. I took a close up of the postmark.

Thats nice Elynn! I dont have your latest address... Can you please PT it to me? I will send out cards for X'mas soon. Also I will send you one from my Peru collection.

awaiting your reply.

Simone,

I'm glad you got the Post card... I was worried, when I did not hear from you for a long time. I'm also glad that you and your grandma liked it, it was one of my favourite. Peruvian culture, art and heritage is very close to ours, in most places many people would mistake me as a Brazilian and would start talking with me in Portuguese. It used to be quite weird.
