Catching up…and packing up…I am taking my address book and cards with me on my long trip…hope to get some time in the car addressing envelopes to a bunch of people because I have been so spoiled with mail!
From @magpie, a cute kimono people card and a nice note inside! From @Amfkinney , the punny garden card, and the cutest watermelon card from @Ewulotta !
From @Smmarrt , who is not officially in this craftalong, a bunch of goodies including the smoothest paper I have ever felt…thanks…I am not sure I can cut them up into journal pages but I will! Using the good stuff…and want to try using those napkins after watching a few videos on how to do it!
and finally, from @PrincessP , a bunch of cool space/moon things, including the wonderful card. She also sent one of her embroidered badges!
I colored a page today but really didn’t care for it…I just am not that great at coloring in the lines…so I doodled it up and cut it up to make a few notecards…lol
Thanks, everyone! I will be back in the game with the August theme!

I feel like you guys give me too much credit 
You guys are the true magic element of the Happy Mail’s success 
I was inspired years ago by seeing other people share random Happy Mail and eventually I started sending my own, then I received some too 
which made me want to send more… Then there were the holiday card exchanges that eventually lead to the craftalong. But it all started because of someone else’s kindness, the generosity of this community, a little bit of bravery from myself by putting myself “out there” more, a little nudging from some LC friends… and it’s success is all because of you wonderful people

I feel like @magpie told me to but I can’t remember for sure… she’s often the little angel on my shoulder nudging me along

I’m currently working on August themed stationery and writing the notes in the July themed cards.
I’m hoping things-G-d willing-will calm down starting September. My 17 yo will be getting a job and going to night school. DH and 19 yo daughter have an appointment this month to talk with college FA so hopefully she will be taking classes.
My brother was here for his second visit with me from this past Saturday afternoon till Tuesday morning. It was so much fun showing him places on LI that he had not seen before, even though he used to live here. He has plans to visit again next month. 
And DH….(Thank you G-d!) is having his last two chemo treatments tomorrow and next week! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to those of you that sent him cards or jokes or prayed for him.

Ummm…I have a request that I hope isn’t too much to ask.
I want to make a list of the people I’ve sent cards to already so I can send cards to different people next time. If you’ve received a card from me as part of this Happy Mail group, could you please reply and let me know? I’d really appreciate it. TYSM
(I’ll start the list with the ones I’m sure of. )
