Pen and Paper

Last year, I began writing (yes, writing, with pen and paper) letters and cards to my friends, being intentional about staying in touch with people I care about. I was semi-successful at it, even sending Christmas cards, which I haven't done in years.
Now, thanks to A Month of Letters Challenge and Postcrossing.com, I am going far over my entertainment budget on postage. And so far, the score, if I kept one, is many pieces of mail out, zero in. But that's all right. This is something to do for me, something I like that takes me out of the mundane and away from the steenking television.
So, this week I have sent:
1 package to Kansas.
1 postcard to Russia.
1 postcard to Georgia (the state).
1 postcard to Belarus.
1 postcard to Poland.
1 postcard to The Netherlands.
1 postcard to Maryland.
1 postcard to Hawaii.
1 birthday card to Sugar Land.
1 letter to Oklahoma.
1 letter to Kansas.
1 letter to someone here in town.
