What "appalling handwriting"? It was perfectly legible! So, I know that you can't be a doctor! I used to work in a hospital and had to try read their orders and such! Now that's appalling handwriting!

Drat, mine hasn't made it there yet?? It's been almost a week *grumble grumble* things seem to make it *here* faster than they make it *from* here.

Many thanks and karma to Nohmi2 for the postcards and stamps from Australia! My daughter especially liked the one with the koala! (She's very into animals!
Many thanks and karma to Columbus as well for the postcard and stamp from Valencia, Spain! It's neat that they are coming in so steadily, one or two each day, not all on one day! How did you all coordinate such timing? |

Just for the record, for all interested, she did a *fabulous* job translating! Now if only i had motivated parents (of my students) who could also try to translate things before calling me on my cell phone.... Last edited by GraceKrispy; 06-28-2009 at 01:35 AM. |

I really do hope to visit Hawai'i someday! I had planned to use travel (day trips and vacations), to enhance my daughter's education. But it hasn't happened yet, as the barn is consuming too much of our time & money! So, I guess with these postcards, we are traveling by mail!

Not me. Not yet. I've yet to buy the postcard. Which reminds me, I owe a postcard or two to one of those socks in Paris. Hmm.

VR pray tell, which psock do you owe a postcard to in Paris? Curiously I've had no response from any psocks from France. Of course this is purely voluntary. I would never pressure anyone to participate. (But anyone else can, if they'd like to!) Well, I'm not beyond begging either... PLEASSSEEE! Pretty please with sugar (and chocolate) on top!! |

Many thanks, karma and a standing ovation to Verencat for her generosity and ENTHUSIASM!
Thank you and karma also to Ruth1304 for all the postcards and stamps from Bristol! Another postcard came in today from Nohmi2 in Australia! I don't know if it was posted at the same time as the first ones, and just arrived a tad later? Thanks again Nohmi! |
