Comment: What a cool PC! I read lots of Jack London when I was younger--not much lately, so many new books to read! I got to see some of his letters and original manuscripts years ago at the Huntington Library and Museum in Pasadena--a great museum to visit if you get the chance. I'm a big fan of mysteries, too, although I have been reading more NF lately. I enjoy memoirs and autobiographies. Thanks for the PC!
Comment: Thank you for the magnificent bald eagle PC and the cute hummingbird stamps! It sounds like you live in a beautiful part of the world surrounded by lots of wildlife. Happy birdwatching!
Comment: Hello Cynthia! Thank you for the stunning selection of postcards you sent me! My favourites were the DC comic one and the art postcards! Take care, -Manpreet
Comment: Thank you for the great Hemmingway card! Seems like a series I need to look up! Corinne Bomann also wrote a serie starting in WW1, I have yet to read it but I have the first book at the ready
Comment: Thank you for the postcard. I like to read the book before seeing the movie. Most of the time the movies are no match for the book though. Happy swapping!🙂
Comment: Thank you for the list of tv shows. The only one I have ever watched on your list is House. I am sorry for the delay in rating; personal health stuff took over my life this past week. I hope you can understand.
Comment: What an excellent list of craft supplies! (I think I completely forgot to add pens to my own list, oops.) I need to look into those scissors and see if maybe there's a left-handed option. ^^ Thank you so much for joining my swap, and I'll talk to you soon! <3
Comment: Thank you so much for the beautiful washi samples! I specially love the one with flowers and gold foil (❤❤❤), the one with yellow flowers and the one with the blue circles!
Comment: Thank you for the washi! I haven't seen any of those before. I love the one with the buildings...it's like a little town somewhere. Happy swapping!🙂
Comment: Hi Cynthia! You are the second person to recommend this book! I was shying away from it as I had read some really bad reviews but now I think I need to give it a try! Thank you! All the best! Hugs, Happy Reading and Swapping! ;)
Comment: Thank you so much for a wonderful swap! I really appreciate the fun items you sent. Your atc is sweet and I love the sentiment. Have a great weekend!
Comment: Thanks for the very prompt response. You mentioned being interested in octapus-- I recomment the current issue of National Gographic which has a long article with wonderful photo and much info. I enjoyed your list (lots of reading!!) and the very timely response to the swap.
Comment: Thank you for the Aayla Segura postcard. My entire living room is Star Wars. Very few people understand so I'm always happy to meet another super fan!
Comment: Thanks for the cool Carter Woodson PC and I'll put the Princess of Las Vegas on my list, it looks interesting and weirdly enough I had a dream just last night about a princess Diana impersonator warning me of an impending storm. 👻 I guess I better read it for the karma, lol
Comment: Thank you for the postcard. I understand what you mean about space being so unknown. When I was little, I refused to look at the stars for too long, because I feared some creature was out there, with x-ray vision, who could see me looking at them. I still have that fear, just not so much.
Comment: Thank you!
(Just as a note because you read you think there are German translations (which I wouldn’t need): normally it takes a year to publish the German translation of a book. So when I really want to read it soon, I read it in English ☺️)
Comment: Thanks for your weekend update. How neat you come down here. Camas girls high school is playing up in tacoma for the play offs. Hope they win friday, the finals are saturday night. We plan to attend. Hope the weather is ok.
Comment: After completing this swap, I realized it's been a while since I've read a book all the way through. I don't even recall what the last one was. I should probably read more. Thank you for the postcard.
Comment: Sorry for the delay. I just got to the post office today. What a terrific ATC. Very well done! and I love birds - and all the layers. Thank you for sending.
Comment: I just love this ATC! The chicken is cute! I must say, I'm really enjoying collecting your ATCs, they are always beautifully done. Thanks so much!
Comment: Thanks for the weekend note card. It sounds like you really had a good weekend. I would like to start a junk journal. I bring know if its because I don't know where to start or I'm too disorganized.
Comment: Thank you for your card, and the lovely add-ins in the envelope. I think it is so awesome you have so much nature near by! I love to see bald eagles.
Comment: Your labels and card are super cute. Thank you so much for the Alice goodies.
You're weekend sounds like it was nice, how fun to get some time with your daughter. The Wizard of Oz is a favorite around here. I hope you get a break from the rain so you can get outside chores done.
Comment: Thanks so much for the PC (like you, writing the 3 things we like about ourselves was definitely not as easy as I thought either!) Have a nice day! 🌹🌹🌹
Comment: This is a great ATC, thank you so much. I collect individual playing cards, and I've never seen this one before. So that makes it a double win for me.
Comment: Thanks for your card! This seems to be the season to have a cold, I was also sick half of January, so it passed very quickly yet seemed very long haha
Comment: Thanks for the pretty postcard with floral decorations. Our lists are pretty similar! Sometimes I wonder how would I use up all these supplies! Definitely have way more then I can use. 😅

Comment: Thanks for your nice note in the beautiful card. We just had a windy storm but only had a bunch of pine cones on the ground after. The last big storm we had, before leaving Maine, was the winding-down hurricane. I was about with neighbors cutting trees to clear our rural road.

Comment: Hi Cynthia and thanks so much for this awesome ATC. Love the colors you used and the moon and sun images as well. Plus it has a very cool 3 D effect - very clever and very well put together. Many thanks!!
Comment: Thank you for the fun list! I almost always put "In the Air Tonight" on my 80's lists & "Welcome to the Jungle" is one of my favorites that, for some reason never ends up on the lists.
Comment: I agree with you about the painting on the front. And I really like the Forever stamp you used (My PO doesn't have that one, I always look for special ones. Happily a week of chilly gray weather is giving way to a lovely autum day--the leaves will turn soon. Happy autumn to you.
Comment: Great PC. I had "The Widows of Malabar Hill" on my tbr list since 2018 so I need to move it up my pile, lol."The One Hundred Years of Lenni & Margot" I remember seeing that on the Goodreads nomination list so I added it to my tbr - you're the first person to recommend it!

Comment: Thanks for the Mount Rainier National Park postcard and sharing about your childhood personality. I laughed at your answer because I feel I would have been the same, and maybe even now!
Comment: Cynthia, thank you for your St. Patrick's Day card and fun green goodies. I almost thought writing upside down is a St. Patrick's Day tradition as I have never received St. Patrick's Day cards or celebrated St. Patrick's Day before 😂
Comment: Such sweet faces on the card 💕💕
I’ll find a spot to put them where I can always see them!
Love all the extras too!
Sending snuggles to your kitties!!
Comment: Thank you, Cynthia! When I was going through the mail, I was looking at this card and kept flipping it, trying to figure out if it's a 6 or a 9. I had a laugh when I read the back and you had the same question. I think it maybe looks more like a 9, but I'm not sure. It's definitely a strange card, I agree!
Comment: Cynthia, thanks a lot for your nice assortment of different postcards! I'm pretty sure that I can use them for different occasions. 💙💌
Christine

Comment: Thanks for the postcard of The Reading Woman II and for sharing about Ms. Hawthorne. My daughter had the opposite happen to her. She used to love to read and then was "forced" to read out of her comfort zone and it changed her passion for reading. I love to read!
Comment: That kraft envelope that you sent the postcards in was so cool. I like it. You sent me such awesome postcards. My ancestors are from Arhus, Denmark so I love that. I love that you sent pcs from so many places that I want to visit one day. I sure hope to get to so many more places around the world. Also thanks for the card.
Comment: I hope you had a good holiday season with your daughter and family. Learning to share my son with future in-laws this year..like you said bittersweet but hard. Sorry for my delay in rating, I thought I did it a long time ago.

Comment: Thank you so much for the lovely card and telling me about your weekend! I can't imagine working in a shipping store at this time of the year. Almost like me working at Walmart on Black Friday. LOL! And I stayed for 20 years. Merry Christmas!
