On Getting Snail Mail

I absolutely adore receiving snail mail. There is something about it that is over the top in nicety. I also like getting boxes, packages, parcels, and posts. Whatever you call it, it means something is good in that box/soft pouch mailer! Something I bought myself or something someone has sent me. It's all the same.

Unless it's my recent order from VS - although pretty and functional, this stuff is usually not something you can share with anyone. Only in words, and very few of them at that. Don't get me wrong, I'm very pleased to have newbies in the drawer. Oh, yes, very nice. But, it is not the same as getting a book, let's say; and, I get plenty of those coming to my porch via the postman.

More cleaning ahead! I have to make and eat dinner before 6:30 tonight and take the boys to Scouts. Fun. I hope they just go along with it and don't complain.

Glad you got something soft in the mail:).

Speaking of snail mail...Do you want your surprise to your current address or once you get to Hawaii?

Oh, boy! Well, if it's ready, the current . . . otherwise, if it's ready and you choose to wait, it could be June - Sept. to wait to mail it to me in HI. Why so long? There's a waiting list, apparently, that is 3-6 months long . . . but it's likely we'll get quarters a lot sooner than that. I hope! But, whatever is easiest and best for you. Thank you so much!
