Tucking Things Away

I've noticed that I have this very bad habit of tucking things away when I can't finish them. Recently I've found two unfinished letters. One is for a Denise which I had already written an envelope for and a Vicki which I have not address for but an almost finished letter.
If you are either of these people, I'm so sorry for the delayed response! And Vicki, please contact me so I can get your address!

Ugh...

I haven't been doing that much letter writing lately and I don't know why! I just can't seems to sit down an concentrate. Letter are flowing in my mailbox as much as they were as a result I'm cancelling my mailbox in June. I'll send all of my correspondents my home address. This is also because my conviant post office isn't very easy to get in and out of.
In other news, I'll be heading to Peace Valley Park for a nice bike ride soon and am hoping that the nature center gift shop has some postcards!

Daily Mail: Outgoing

Here's my first outgoing mail in a long while.
To Becky the Snail Mailer. It has a recipe which I hope she either tries or pass along. She's a fellow flexitarian although she leans more towards vegetarianism. The recipe is for Chicken Pitas with Yogurt Dill sauce. It's super yummy. If anyone wants it I'll send one via snail mail to you. Just contact me at elfscuz @ yahoo.com with your name and address.
Sammie over at Box 332. The bird stamp I got on clearance at Joann's for $2. Well, worth it!
A letter to my high school buddy that lives in Montana written on super cute stationary that I found at a thrift shop (to be featured in upcoming post).

Postcard to Ilona the Missive Maven who recently lost her cat, Memo. Just sending my sentiments to her and her remaining cat,Soda.

A letter in the works for Rita who sent me a postcard a month ago. It didn't seem like that long ago!

Back in Business

I sort of took February off from blogging because my hours increased from part time to full time hours. Thankfully, I think, my hours are back to normal and I have A LOT more time on my hands! I've received dozens of things and even a postcard or two which I will share later when I get my camera back in order. I need to format the memory card. Ugh...

Letter to Austria

I love it when I receive letters and want to immediately reply. I received such a letter today. If I could I would fly to Vienna now. It sounds so lovely! The more I learn about European countries that more I want to visit them. I had my reply to Eva in the matter of a few hours, including interruptions, and decorated the plain white envelope with some cool fabric tape that I found for $1.25 for four decent sized rolls.

Mailings

Sorry about the lack of posts and posts with pictures lately. My camera decided to go on strike until i formate my memory card and for some reason I'm having a bit of trouble writing letters probably due to the fact that I still haven't cleaned up my work space. I'm still trying to adjust to work 40 hours a week instead of about 24. I must learn to manage my time a little better. Tomorrow I'm bringing my letter writing supplies to work and work some some letters.

Disorganized

Help! I'm under a pile of clutter!
How did I let it get so disorganized? My desk space and my whole room is just a mess. Pretty pieces of notepaper swaps, postcards, and other random stuff is all over my room. This is most likely the cause of my bad moods lately and a few late swaps. Hopefully in the next few posts I can show you how I organize my stuff but before then I need something better in place. Until then, how do you organize your writing supplies?
