I wonder if I bake for my mailman if he will bring my list faster?

justkim · 08-08-2011, 07:30 AM

Good morning! The first half of Colorado cards go out this morning... The rest will go out tomorrow... Enjoy! The places on the postcards are all within a 15 minute to 3 hour drive from here...

You're all in trouble now!!!!!

I have a stack which will be sent out this morning...I am a tiny bit worried since they are laminated and stuck onto postcard blanks (which I like a lot since I am too lazy to cut and glue my own)...I Might go to the trouble of checking with the woman to make sure they are gonna make it and don't need any additional postage...I really think they should/will be okay...

I tend to try and do them all at one time...my hand hurts when I try and scribble some message on the back, so I usually end up doing it in two sittings...for me, as well, trying to pick the card for the person takes the most time...

it's funny...I don't smoke (thank GdashD)...and it's been 10 years since I have, still doing the postcard thing makes me "miss" it...not really Miss it-miss it, but I notice when I would have been smoking during the process...and then, I get double milage out of the momentary thought of smoking, since I get to (once again) be so thankful I do not smoke...sorry, that was a little off topic, even for me!!

Just wanted to thank Littleman for the beautiful postcard that I received today. I love black and whites so it was perfect! *Smile

I have decided that I may collage my postcards on one end of my countertop under an old refrigerator shelf glass. This way I will have all of the pictures as a reminder of this wonderful group and they will stay protected from moisture. :-)

Good gravy! There's a lot to read when life gets too busy to be on every weekend!!

I guess that's it 'till I think of something else that I think is postcard related and which may, or may not be...

hope the weekend is smooth and kind to you all...

cheers

Nina

Now, see, if Scoote is as much like my wife as I think she is...when it arrives, Jo may find Scoote trying to steam them apart so she can read your original message!

i know it's only august (even though my calendar says july...gotta flip that), but with the size of the list now, i thought it would be good to gauge interest and leave time to get stuff made.

jo, not trying to hijack your thread here...just a random thought.

Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, YES!

*Clearing throat* I mean..I think it sounds fun! *G*

Does anyone sit and write the entire list at once? How long does that take?

I tend to do ours all at once, but now that the list has grown more, may break it into batches! I, also, haven't timed it, but would say around an hour and a half or so. I try not to write the same message on every card, tho some are repeats. I'm a "personalize it" kinda girl. So, that probably takes me a lil longer! And I am TOTALLY going to be as smart as Tommi & print out address labels!!!

Just a quick warning, your countertop will likely soon fill up!

Tommi, that looks like the perfect artist's retreat. Peaceful..*nodnod* Thanks for the card!

Diva! I LOVED the card!! And the boot? Well, it was perfect!!! Thanks much!!!

You're welcome! Despite me saying I wasn't personalizing cards; I saw that and thought immediately of you. Each card in the series had a different word, and that was your word. I believe they're stickers of some sort...
