Postcrossing

I hope you've looked at my other blog called Postcrossing. I'm really enjoying it. In case you wonder what it is, I'll tell you. I go into the website called Postcrossing. I ask for an address to send a card to someone. I'm assigned a number to write on the card. Then, when the person gets my card, they register the number on the website and my address will go to someone to send me a card. I have an album full of great cards for all over the world! And, I have new friends on Facebook now that I got from Postcrossing. I have three friends from Finland and one in France! What fun. You really get to know people and what they do by getting cards. And, for people who like to collect stamps, wow, there are some beautiful stamps from other countries. I'm afraid that our country doesn't have a good stamp for international mailing so I have to get two regular stamps and one ten cent stamp per card. I try to get cute or pretty stamps. I usually send out Simpson stamps. I think everyone in the world must know who they are. Anyway, check out my blog and see the beautiful cards I've received. It's goblepostcrossing.blogspot.com.

New friend in Finland

I received a card from Finland yesterday. The girl that sent it is in facebook. She's now my friend on Facebook. I think it's so neat to correspond with someone from another country. She lives in Helsinki. I'll have to read up on the country and city.

My postcrossing

You can see the cards that I receive and info about the postcrossing on my other blog. But I just want to say how exciting it is to get cards from all over the world. If you like to get postcards, you should try it out. And I'm corresponding with one of the ladies that I sent a card to that lives in Austria. It's very interesting to read about their country. She lives in the town that Arnold Swartzenegger was born. I didn't know that they have a stadium named after him.
Check out my blog and see the cards that I've received. Cool.

Postcrossing and I Missed the Movie

I'm really enjoying my postcrossing. It's fun. I'm getting cards from all over the world. You can see more about it on my postcrossing blog. If anyone who receives my postcards and you look at my blogs, please comment so I know if you are reading my blogs. Also, you can email me at my email address. It would be interesting to hear from you. I wish I could find more postcards. It's hard to find the cards that some people request. Maybe I'll be able to make my own cards someday.
Anyway, it's fun.

I couldn't go to the movie today because Denny's defibralator vibrated last night and this morning so we couldn't leave Dallas with him in case something happened. It's happened before and as long as it doesn't 'shock' him, he's ok.
He'll call the doctor tomorrow.

Postcrossing

I got a response from the first postcard that I sent on Postcrossing. My card went to Finland and it took 18 days to get there. I'm waiting to find out if the card that I sent to Germany was received. Here is what the girl responded to my card.
Hi Jan. Dallas was my first tv-series which I remember. J.R was so mean and
bobby was my favourite. I was then like 5 years old. That's all what I know your
city. Have a nice time with your flowers! Jenni

Postcrossing

While checking out blogs, I found a real interesting hobby on a blog. So I checked out the website and I joined it today. It's called postcrossing. After you register (free) you request an address and send a postcard to the address. It tells you about the person that you are sending the card to. You can send up to 5 postcards to begin. I have two addresses to send cards to. One person lives in Finland and the other in Germany. Wow! I'm excited about this. When they get their card, they put in the number on the website that was given to you and you wrote it on the card. Then your name will pop up when someone requests an address!
I'll let you know how it goes. If you want to check out the website yourself, it's http://www.postcrossing.com.
