When I mailed a swap package this week I heard there were huge delays at several airports in the US. I suppose that’s why my mail isn’t arriving. I hope it reaches you before the new year!
I got a lovely Christmas card from @Cindy.
Thanks again!
I received one of @madebyBeaG’s lovely new year cards - thank you!
@Immaculata, I think we’re in the same boat. I’ve got international cards somewhere out there in the wild blue yonder, and only a few days before Christmas.
I received from you today!!
And from @madebyBeaG earlier this week / last week.
Sorry I’ve been slack ate recognising, work has been busy. Project go live next week
I received two more beautiful cards from @wittychild and @endymion! Thank you!
Thank you, @bluebird, @endymion and @lynx and @GeekyBookworm for lovely cards!
I plan on being more active next year!
Tag, you’re it!
If @Reinikka still needs a break
I posted a list of themes at the beginning of the year, I think, but I haven’t done very well with monthly reminders…. Could use some help!
And @bluebird
I finally remembered to post a pic of your card! Thx again
Oops, I forgot about that post.
Apparently the mail was delivered late on Friday, and I hadn’t noticed. A belated thank you to @bluebird for the cute Christmas card and stickers!
Merry Christmas, everyone!
Hello everyone I have really appreciated the break this year. I needed it to focus on some ME things! I’m feeling much more happy in general so it was worth it I’m so happy to see that Happy Mail is still rolling along and I think I can take back over next year, although maybe with a little less hands on time… If someone wants to handle themes that’s ok with me I expect my new job to slow down a bit after this week but come September I will probably need someone else to step up a bit with Happy Mail organizing.
I’m also wondering if there might be a better way to share addresses? I was thinking maybe a Google document that could be shared privately and everyone can add/edit their own addresses and info? That would make it similar to the first year where I was handing out addresses but would be a little less work because I could just share the document. Anyone that doesn’t want to share their address that way would still have the option to be contacted directly instead. Just a thought and I’m open to suggestions
I’ll be able to devote a little more time to this craftalong next week but I might be a little absent until then
Merry Christmas!
@Reinikka - Hello! I can imagine the address sharing being a lot of work for you and understand wanting a different option. I think though that if you do decide to do a google doc I would like to opt out of having my address in the google doc and just ask people directly to swap addresses. Thanks!
Hi!
Nice to hear from you and good to know that things are settling down somewhat:)
No worries!
I sort of forgot about it too!
And I definitely think it’s more engaging for everyone to have a monthly theme posted just to keep things fresh and active….
Maybe you & @Reinikka could alternate months for themes?
Just a thought
I got lovely Holiday cards from @irid3sc3nt and @wittychild.
Thanks again!
I got a wonderful Holiday card from @Lynx and @GeekyBookworm.
Thanks again!
If you want help with themes I’m willing.
As for addresses, I like having people ask me directly.
I received from @wittychild and @endymion !! Thanks!
I received a bunch of cards in very early December, then nothing until now. I haven’t heard from anyone, irl or LC, that they’ve received a card from me and I’ve sent at least 30. I also haven’t received the boring mail I’ve been expecting. Not sure what’s going on with our mail, but at least I’ve received two beautiful, handmade cards today!
I have received from @madebyBeaG, @endymion, @wittychild and @Immaculata over the last week or so.
Thanks everyone for the cheer, they have brightened up the grey rainy days we are having!
I received a lovely card from @wittychild yesterday, and also think I may have overlooked acknowledging one I received from @bluebird earlier in the month. Thanks so much! My holiday card holder is looking so pretty, and is full of mostly LC cards!
wow, it does sound like something is amiss with the mail in your area!
how strange~
glad you at least rec’d 2 LC cards!
