My Oh-So Taxing Job!

Before I get started on the mail post, I just wanted to show everyone what I managed to do while multitasking at work today. Behold my failed attempts at hand-drawn ATCs!

So I don't think they're *awful*, really, but
the fact remains I'm artistically challenged.

Well, unfortunately I don't have any incoming to share with you guys tonight because I found my P.O. Box empty (this is the first time that's happened in months, seeing as I only checked it about once every 2-3 weeks during my hiatus, and by that time ads had accumulated at the very least...) It was kind of depressing, but I took the opportunity to touch-up some of my other replies instead of working on new ones.

I also technically didn't get anything out in time for today's mail, either, but here's a glimpse at what I'm dropping at the post office first thing in the morning.

-A Reply To Last Night's Letter From Emily:

                                         

-A First Letter for My New Penpal, LouLou: Aside from being excited about how long this letter turned out to be (it's only 12 pages, but if you can't tell, that envelope is puffed up and not lying flat on the box. xD), I was really happy about how the envelope itself turned out. I'm not sure how well it'll hold up as it's my first time using rubber cement, but I suppose we'll find out soon!



-A Reply to Last Night's Letter from Almante:



-A Package for My Japanese Penpal/Swap Partner, Miyuki (who requested American sweets!) And all of a sudden the formatting bar doesn't want to appear when I click on these last two images -if anyone knows why that is, please let me know- so we get them in full size! :

26 February 2013

I got to check my box today, so I'm happy to have both incoming and outgoing to share tonight!

Outgoing:


Letter to Mary in the USA, in response to a
postcard I received through Sendsomething!
 Incoming:




On the left is a letter from Aya in Lithuania; the one on the right is from Emily here in the States. <3 Both of them have generously forgiven me for my extended snail mail hiatus. x3

25 February 2013 - First Post

Phew! I almost didn't get around to updating this tonight! I've been putting off school work lately, so when I got home this afternoon I found myself frantically rushing to get everything done. :c And since it was raining pouring flooding outside, I didn't get to go check my P.O. Box. But I have some outgoing mail to share with you, anyway. :)







Letter to my new penpal, Ashlee (USA).

                 Letter to Zaira (USA) - >





Letter to Chelle in the USA.

        Letter to Sandra in the Netherlands - >







A much, much overdue letter to Tari in France!

So I suppose that's it for now! Hopefully tomorrow I'll have some incoming to share as well.
Also, despite my other one, I still don't have much experience with blogging, so
please forgive me for screwy formatting. I'll get the hang of it eventually!

Introduction

Welcome to my second attempt at a blog dedicated to my daily incoming and outgoing mail! I had a similar blog back in 2011/2012, but stopped regular updates last summer. Now that I'm feeling new and inspired again, it's time to give this another go! First post expected 25 February 2013. See you then!
