#29 - With this report, all my December postcards have arrived!


#1 @cawindt - Thank you for this postcard from the Governor’s Palace in Colonial Williamsburg! I also cannot believe it’s 2022 so soon. We’re all still processing 2019, 2020, and what even was 2021!? :laughing:

#13 @ladybug513 - Thank you for this cozy cup of hot cocoa! Loved your holiday greeting poem! I was sick for the holidays, so I had lots of hot tea to keep me cozy!

#20 @Triol - Thank you for this COVID 2020 postcard! It will be wild to look back at this collection of postcards when we are (hopefully???) out of this mess.

#21 @Beachyblonde - Thank you for this sweet snowy mushroom clock! My boyfriend doesn’t understand the cute cottage core mushroom aesthetic, but I love it! I hate mushrooms as food also, but the cutesy ones I can’t say no to looking at!

#24 @roxy - Thank you for this sweet Christmas Greeting! Love this little street scene. I like going to towns like this where all the buildings are connected and you can visit various shops. It’s so magical at Christmastime!

#28 @TwoDoggies - Thank you for this Lou Paper Christmas postcard! I’m hoping for a restful and stress-free remainder of the year as well! Our Christmas was very simple but so nice!


See all the postcards I’ve received for this RR here!

#25 with lots of updates! Almost all received!

#1 @cawindt A lovely postcard of George Wythe House in Williamsburg. I love listening to audiobooks. I don’t find much time to just sit and read, so I appreciate a good audiobook to be able to get other things done at the same time!

#11 @PostAddy lovely Christmas wishes with glitter pens and great decor!

#13 @ladybug513 a lovely postcard of the American Holly stamp from 1997–I loved this one. Thank you!

#20 @Triol Lovely Christmas wishes from Longwood Gardens

#21 @Beachyblonde what cute snowy greetings. I adore this card! I got my tree up on December 18–it gave us some time at least to enjoy it! :stuck_out_tongue:

#24 @roxy Lovely ornamental Christmas greetings with ALL of the amazing Canadian stamps, including a great vintage one of Elizabeth and Phillip!! What studs!

#27 @NittanyLionRI HEHEHEHEHEHEEEEEEE German sausage jokes ARE the WURST. :laughing: My husband’s last name is Franks, so this hits even better. I do feel like German is very familiar but the sentence structure is so different. I managed to get around places decently in Germany with zero prior German knowledge.

#28 @TwoDoggies lovely holiday greetings! Thank you!

#29 @melvnoble I love these Gregory Blackstock postcards! The Christmas Ornament ball (that looks like a Chicago flag) and Christmas Crystal Light ball is second best only to the yarn ball :stuck_out_tongue:

Thank you all!

Good Evening! I am checking in with a nice batch of cards:

#1 @cawindt Thank you for this great picture postcard of the Raleigh Tavern in Colonial Williamsburg. I really like the multitasking option which audio books help create! I had a funny/scary thing happen when listening to The Time Traveler’s Wife. At the end, 2 voices blend at the same time. I was listening late at night and the dual voice change spooked me! The Apollo stamp from 1976 is cool! Happy New Year to you!

#11 @PostAddy Thank you for these snow bunnies sending me holiday greetings! I like these cards by Current, Inc-which is a Colorado company. Happy 2022 to you!

#20 @Triol Thank you for this Country Store Snowy Holiday Season card. It certainly brings a seasonal feeling! Hope your holidays are going well and Happy New Year!

#24 @roxy Thank you for the cheerful red card! Sorry to hear your green Christmas was snowed upon! It won’t last long, will it?! Happy 2022 to you!

#28 @TwoDoggies Thank you for this Santa overlooking the holiday activities! I have never seen this one! I think I am getting better at signing up for the card exchanges when I have time! Maybe I am! Eyes rolling! Happy 2022 to you!

#29 @melvnoble Thanks for this sunny sunflower! I would love sunflowers all year long!! I just returned from Mexico where I spent Christmas! Happy 2022!

#13 with one more card from:

#1 @cawindt - Thank you for the Lighthouses of Ohio to add to my collection. This is only my second one for Ohio, this one with some very interesting looking lighthouses all located on Lake Erie. It sounds like you had another great visit from the twins. Memories are made of this!

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas!

I have more cards to report :

#12 @Yarn-Lady sent two cards - one of Santa and his reindeer flying off to the next house and a cozy Christmas scene which just screams holidays to me.

#20 @triol sent a precious Prince George at Christmas card

#21 @Beachyblonde sent a card ordering me to Keep Calm and Eat a Poutine - I guess my lunch dilemma is now solved! :slight_smile:

#30 @RockyRoadTrip sent a delightful Krampus card but the best part was the message on the back - damn punk rock music, indeed! :slight_smile:

#10 @emotis sent a precious illustration of two dogs watching out the window at the USPS truck… I’m sure they were expecting some treats!

#25 @jocrafts sent an unnamed motel sign. They have vacancy and those new fangled colour tvs!

Thank you everyone for the delightful cards, your nice messages and the decorations! Happy New Year!
