bumpty bump . if anyone is still tossing this idea around ...please hop on and join the post card exchange. It is allot of fun and also brightens your day when you find a post card in your mail . and a great idea for winter is near and it is so depressing for most everyone it is a comfort to get a little card from one of us sos brothers or sisters here. I have some pretty amazing post cards from all over this country and other countries too from last time we did this . so stop tossing the idea around and please come and add yourself to the list. at first I didnt know some of the people on the list when I first did it but I got to know them and have made some awesome friends who are dear to my heart now. I would like to be sending lots postcards out to lots of my sos family and get them too. :grouphug:
PEACE
BMW...Tina
lol tam you trumped my bump lol and posted before me .:)

Abbie 10-28-2012 08:14 PM

bump again....
 
There's still time!!!!!!

I'm compiling the list.....so far we have 9 exchangers.

I can always add more at any time but why not make me do all
the work at once. I don't mind....really, I don't.

I would love to see the list as long as my arm.

Also, you don't have to just send post cards. You can send any kind of cards or go to your visitor center get pamphlets of your area put one in an envelope and send.

The more the merrier....we all like to get a little sunshine in the mailbox.
:hug:

My apologies to all postie exchangers because I have not yet sent out your cards.

I've been away on vacation and since coming home I have been sick. I
am starting to feel better now and hope to get them in the mail tomorrow or the next day.

Abbie 11-15-2012 11:47 AM

It's ok Koala!!!

I think it's great that we are spacing them apart...

That way we get little "presents" when we least expect them. :)

I'm still working on getting mine... I have the stamps... still need to find my cards. My parents will be home this weekend so hopefully my mom will be able to go with me to find some...that is if the weather doesn't kill me and she doesn't have a million things to do to get ready for Thanksgiving.

I'm looking for those postcards where you can make your pictures a postcard.... I thought I would share some of my photo's I've taken of the fall foilage and some beautiful sunsets.

:hug:
Abbie

Alffe 11-29-2012 05:14 PM

Got your postie today Koala....thank you. Hugs

Just pm Abbie and give her your name and address. She will add your name to the list and, in turn, send you the list with everyones names on it. Then you just send post cards to the people on the list. Any kind of post card you choose will be fine. Barbo

Not yet..when did you send it???

Abbie 12-07-2012 12:52 AM

I am slacker!!!! I feel terrible!! I haven't sent out a card.
Just when things look good around here I get hit in the head!!!

Had to take my niece to the emergency room....she passed out at work hitting her head. Found out she was severely dehydrated.

As for me....I have been having troubles with my medicine....they took 6 vials of blood trying to see what the levels are. My body has a tendency to either build up or pass through meds and not work at all.

I promise to get cards out soon....
Abbie

Addy 12-07-2012 01:04 PM

Dear Abbie... do NOT beat yourself up for not getting the postcards done...

you have too much on your plate and have removed that which can be done another day...

your friends here love you and understand that :hug:

I've been dealing with some challenges, too... will start a new thread.

The important thing, as David always says: TAKE CARE OF YOU!!!

Koala77 12-08-2012 02:59 AM

Well said Addy. :D

I too have things happening at the moment so I can certainly understand the need to prioritise. I am just pleased that I got in early and bought mine while we were away on vacation.

I look forward to a pleasant surprise in my mailbox one day..... when you are ready Abbie. :hug:

Addy 12-08-2012 01:12 PM

(((Koala)))) :hug: good to see you :)

I'm very tempted to be a part of the postcard exchange... but I can't get my head around it...

silly, because i know it would give me great pleasure!

one day... soon

hang in there (((Abbie-sis))) :Heart:

Alffe 12-10-2012 02:07 PM

I'm still on a postie hunt. Think I will take a short trip to a nearby truck stop....I recall seeing posties in those when I traveled.

So look out....you never know what you might get from me.
