Mailbox Happiness

Oh boy, is it ever hot here in Dallas!  The best thing to do in the afternoons is stay in and write a letter or two so that's what I've been doing.  The following have gone out to the USA, UK, Germany, Spain, Ukraine & Canada. 











Russian People in Traditional Dress from my favorites on Postcrossing.


I love and collect postcards with mail/post boxes from all over the world.  This one is from Ukraine and lovely, don't you think. I had it in my favorites on Postcrossing too.


I recently a new collection of cards with sheeps, goats and cows.  This card is actually a quilt, can you imagine the work that went into making it?  I love unique cards like this!

Sheep and Goats are so cute to me so I've started a new collection of cards representing them.  Here's one of my first sheep cards, so adorable it makes me smile to look at it.

Hello Russia!  I love seeing you through cards, words and stamps.  You're blessed to have kind people that are willing to share your beauty with others in the world who may never get to see you in person.  Makes.me.happy.

I would love a penpal from Russia, anyone?


St. Sergius Monastery-The Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius (Russian: Тро́ице-Се́ргиева Ла́вра) is the most important Russian monastery and the spiritual centre of the Russian Orthodox Church. The monastery is situated in the town of Sergiyev Posad, about 70 km to the north-east from Moscow by the road leading to Yaroslavl, and currently is home to over 300 monks.


I love Russian decorated envelopes and stamps, this one is no exception.

Before I sit down to write a letter or postcard, I always fix myself a drink and thankfully have never spilled yet (wonder if my luck will change now that I've put that in writing).
