30 Thankful Days in Photos: Day 11

Today I'm thankful for fun correspondence via snail mail, a.k.a. the USPS! I have always loved stationery, and (note)cards and stickers. What the pictures show is only about 1/2 of what I have! I enjoy writing notes and mailing them to people. My favorite are the unique note cards that come in fancy boxes and have different pictures on each one.
I love greeting cards. I like to pick out a whole bunch and send them randomly to people. I like to think of specific people as I pick them out. I like every holiday because they usually have a greeting card to go along with it. I find cards for all occasions, but mostly "just because." These are the best ones!
Nobody really expects a card in the mail on a random day of the year. I love to surprise people with randomly-sent cards in the mail. In my imagination, it goes something like this:
You get a card and are excited because the envelope isn't white, so you know it's going to be good. You see the return address and wonder why I am sending something to you. You turn it over to open it up and you see a cleverly arranged funny or cute sticker on the flap. Already you are smiling. You open it and read a funny quip and my handwritten message.
And life is good.
I spent $40 last month (I know!) on stickers and greeting cards. I will use them. You might think I'm crazy, but wait till you're the one receiving the card. Then you'll think that $1.99 was worth the money!
