LOL I didn’t pick up on the herb theme until you mentioned it!
very clever, @Amfkinney !

I am behind on thank you’s, but I think I got a card from you as well as @saintcady prior to my vacation? I really need to get back in gear & organize/ review my happy mail!

Hi, friend!
So happy that you joined in the happy mail fun! I am also a procrastinator & not-put-awayer!!
I’ve been missing you, or maybe I haven’t hung out on the same boards you have?
I seem to spend most of my LC time on this board :slight_smile:

Thank you my lovelies for the birthday wishes, it was a lovely day.

I realised two things, that I didn’t thank @Amfkinney for the fun card you sent.

And I almost missed this little beauty in the the envelope from @jemimah what an awful photo, but I’m in bed now and not getting up to take another one!

I am sure I will! Patience, sister :blush:.

Honestly, I love that I am still getting mail every.single.day, lol. But we are in & out & it’s gonna pile up on the porch!

I have 7 replies I wrote instead of packing. I couldn’t help it, I love all your letters! But it’s going to be a long night, haha.

Hello all!

I’m officially “pausing” my participation in the Happy Mail Craftalong. I still have plans to write back the letters I’ve gotten. Sorry for being a bit MIA - big life changes happening here! My mental health is wackadoo, med changes ensued. Also, I’m going back to college! I’m switching careers! I’m kicking these kids out of the house. (Not truly…they’re just going back to daycare/school and after homeschooling and SAHM-ing I am PUMPED to be alone. Lol.)

School starts in a couple weeks so I’m doing a lot of running around trying to get things sorted and figured out. I’m nervous my online shop won’t cover the cost of daycare so I have to step up my game.

Thank you all for all the lovely mail. I truly appreciate every single piece that graces my mailbox.

@Reinikka I’m tagging you here so you can update the list that I’m on “pause.” Thank you! :slight_smile:

I just mailed out a pile of domestic and international happy mail yesterday from June. I have July cards ready, just need to write them. Still need to post photos.

@Whistlefish, don’t worry and just take real good care of yourself!
You took a wonderful step in returning to college and I totally understand how you will love to no longer be full time in charge of the kids. You go, woman!
(And you can’t stop my Happy Mail that is on its way to you, LOL.)

@wittychild that ATC is fantastic! :laughing:

@Whistlefish we all understand, no need to put extra pressure on yourself. Yay for going back to college! I hope everything goes super brilliantly for you :grinning:
