I take mine to the post office BUT I am glad the June to the moon cards are arriving! I took them all in on a Friday and no issue with weight and size. The following Tuesday I had to ship one out and the clerk measured and said it cost 21 cents more because the envelope was smaller and couldn’t be machined. I was like OMG I was envisioning the 35+ I had shipped all getting returned…I would not have been happy!

I have had a few returns, some postage, some a mistake I made, once I forgot the stamp! A couple came back for no reason, address verified and sent out again. That last one is the only one that miffed me.

I’ve just received a pretty cool card, stickers, a little duck in a cup patch, and a envelope letter (for me to send out) from @bluebird!

Welcome @serenity! So glad you joined us! I sent you happy mail ages ago, but I’m thinking it’s somehow hiding in the postal black hole! Never fear, I can send again!

I received happy mail from @edel today! :slight_smile: Thank you!

That arrived fast. Many I sent earlier haven’t yet.

Oh good because for some reason I thought July was tea themed and found a really random literary reference and one not so random reference I want to use, but then realized it was Picnic!

All I can think of for Picnic is ants. Because Pilot’s bowl attracted ants. Not cool. I might just color giant, shiny ants for y’all with a red gingham background.

It’s strange how the mail can be super fast or snail slow at times. Some of my international June to the moon cards arrived before the ones in the US and I sent them all on the same day!

All that positive energy resulted in some happy results for your friend! You started the ball rolling and the universe listened…that is wonderful news!
