Yea, I like this one ! Yes, I am a "Big Girl" and I think I am still sexy and attractive at 66. Some might not think so, but they are not important, in my opinion. I am finally "mature" enough to see my own worth, and it feels great ! Thanks for this swap.

p.s. I don't recommend buying postcards from the sites: Eye Deal postcards. (costs are very high!) Vintage Postcards site. Unless you have between $100-300 to spend on one postcard. In my opinion I really think it's highway robbery . lol!

I would love to get a black and white postcards due to I'm collecting them for making a big wall at my sewing workplace. That would be really great.
