I got my first postcard!


You may have noticed that my "button" for the Postcard Campaign has changed. A wee bit more appropriate considering my blog name and the mail box theme. ;o) Not to mention I stole it from Average Girl, as she so totally hit it right on the nose. So, thanks miss, I tip my (proverbial) cowgirl hat to ya!

I have received my very first postcard! If you recall, I sent them out last month, and this time around, it was Average Girl's turn to send them out. I started jumping up and down in the post office, pretty much looking like an idiot to all the poor souls who were forced to witness it. I know she was near a panic attack, having to send postcards to total strangers, but seeing as how she's blogged since they've been mailed, I'm pretty sure she survived! So, thanks Average Girl, for a beautiful post card!

By the by, if you haven't checked out her blog, you really should. All those little linky-poos are a hint.

If you're looking for something other than bills or junk mail in your mailbox, join us in the Campaign for Mailbox Happiness. Just shoot me an email (listed above, left) with your name and address. You can also visit the Postcard Campaign's page (link above). There is still time to join up before it's the next person's turn for October - last day to sign up in time for an October postcard is the last day of September.

Speaking of which, I guess I can announce the next person's turn for October!

Next up is Mynx! (I will send you the addresses on October first)

  6. I got mine too- she's a hoot! It took me, however, about five minutes to figure out where I put yours so I could keep them together. Naturally it was right in front of my nose- standing in front of everything on the top of the computer table! But now they are one step closer to a permanent home- hopefully I'll know where that is before Mynx's gets here!

  10. It was a sad little postcard, was it not???? Good grief, I couldn't find a nice post card anywhere... Canadians and their damn ugly postcards... Glad you got yours... I expect it to be framed and hanging on your wall instead of shoebox! LOL!
