Comment: I love the PC you sent, thank you so much! The design and words are appropriate for a lot I have going on around me, I will be sure to place it somewhere for reminding. I also enjoyed the word list; they were mostly new words to me as well. Thanks for the send!

Not much will happen on Sunday, January 27th ! Woo hoo ! USA postcard rates stay at 35 cents domestically for 6.0x4.25 inch. Oversize cards will go up to 55 cents, so stock up on permanent Forever stamps now. International postcards stay at $1.15 for up to 1 ounce.

Hi hi!

Newbie Friendly - Profile Hello #23

Hey Bruce! I'm a big fan of fountain pens too. Which ones are your favorites? I'm still a beginner. I'm not good at switching out the inks. I just treated myself to a Lamy Safari pen on black Friday. That's about my fanciest pen.

Space is cool! What did you think about the latest Mars landing?

Have a great week, Mary
