SNAIL MAIL PROJECT


Cyndy at Putting the Fun in Dysfunctional started this project several months ago where we were all paired up with someone who we would send mail to. Like with a stamp and the P.O.! So I was paired up and we have been sending mail to each other. We decided that we would stick with cards only and not gifts. It has been so much fun receiving and sending out cards. That reminds me I better get one in the mail to my Snail Mail Buddie!

What a sweet idea. I try to regularly send snail mail to my Sunday School class (usually with a couple sticks of gum tucked inside). I wondered if the girls even enjoyed it. Well, I missed a couple weeks when my dad was sick and having surgery and those little girls let me know about it. :o) I LOVE SNAIL MAIL!

this IS a great idea.. cause these days- all we get in the mail is bills, bills, and more bills!!!

How fun is that! I always say I need to do that but I get so wrapped up and don't take time to sit down and do it.

That is a fun idea also. Have a great day..

Snail mail is becoming almost as extinct as the dinosaurs, 45 records and Model-Ts. I hope it stays around for a while longer. I like it :-)

How fun! I need to find a group like that as well..love mail that's not addressed to "occupant" !

that does sound like a fun thing to do! I did that with a fellow blogger for a few months and it was fun to actually not get a bill in the mail but an actual letter :)

Sounds like fun! Thanks for your sweet comment for little Logan. I continue to be amazed at the blogging community and their sincerity. It will be so fun to share with him when he's older about how many people followed him!

Real mail?! You mean people still use such a thing?

I'm terrible with real mail. Probably because I do so many darn mailings at work, that I just can't bring myself to do more personally. I do however have a very nice greeting card to send my secret prayer sister that recently had surgery and won't be back at church for awhile.

Glad you are having fun!

What a WONDERFUL idea! I used to be soooooo good at sending snail mail cards but I've been horrible as my life got busier. I need to spend a day making them- putting stamps on the envelopes and maybe that will help... what a fun idea and it makes getting the mail a lot more fun I bet!

My snail mail partner wanted to send a gift the first time, (and she did) but I've hopefully steered her towards cards only from now on. It takes the pressure off - and well - you know how I feel about gifts LOL

Glad you're a part of the snail mail project, too!

Love the idea! It is so nice to receive a card in the mail, especially in these days of text messaging and Facebook!

What a cool idea and fun project! Rarely do we get snail mail that isn't junk! :)

I used to have a grandmother and a great-aunt I wrote to regularly, before writing became painful wrist problems.) But now I have some email friends whose email letters I treasure.
