Letters

Do you ever write letters anymore?
I do, though not nearly often enough. I don't get back as many as I send, but that's ok. I love writing to people I love and miss. I think it's a lost art form. I know a lot of people bemoan the use of email and texting. They have their place too. If it wasn't for facebook I would not have reconnected with people I miss, I am grateful for it. Email is a lot faster and has it's place too, my friend in California I can email and get in answer back in minutes not days.
 I know I am not the best letter writer, I have a tendency to switch subjects a lot and I know I am not very eloquent, but I do it anyway and you know what I always feel better after I do, there is something refreshing about putting a few thoughts down on paper and sending it off.
I also from time to time write letters to God, I will write my prayer instead of speaking it, as a result I often have more peace about what I am praying on.
I wrote 3 letters just tonight on I love Lucy blank note cards that I have had for years, ( I do adore that redhead) nothing special, just a how is your new year and I miss ya. They will go into the post tomorrow. Here is a little challenge for you, pull out a sheet of paper and a pen and write someone you love, like or miss. They will love getting that letter in the mailbox and I just bet you will love sending it too.
Much love,
Jenny

    I LOVE writing letters, as old fashioned as it may seem. I still have a penpal with whom I exchange JUST letters. We have never met, just sent each other photos. I have never emailed with her, nor talked to her on the phone. It feels so special to exchange letters that way!
    And I love sending cards. I always include a short letter along with my cards and have juuust finished signing one for my sweetie who lives in Washington & am now working on a short note to include with the card. lol.

I miss my Blogging Girlfriends

 Life got busy. Even during all the mess of 2020. I miss blogging, crafting and all the friends I made doing SWAPS, Pink Saturday, Commenting on others posts. It's been too long. My guy keeps telling me I need to do what I love, and what I enjoy. He is right. That's exactly what I need. So I am gonna visit the still active blogs of all the lovely ladies I have missed and hopefully we will reconnect. I hope to talk to you soon! Jenny

Hey Y'all! Sorry to have been away so long again. I won't go into details, but it has been a bit of an adventure here. I think  things are settling down (fingers crossed) So how are ya? I have another give away for ya! A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try and review a box of Woolzies Dryer Balls. Here is a bit about Woolzies from their website Photo from their Facebook page  Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners. Unlike the plastic dryer balls, they are PVC free and won't fall apart or melt on you. Woolzies save time and energy by cutting down on drying time by an average of 25% per load. They also help reduce static and wrinkles. Use Woolzies to snuggle up with naturally downy soft laundry that's completely free of harmful chemicals.  Woolzies are also hypo-allergenic and totally safe for people with wool sensitivities as

Merry Christmas Y'all. Yes I say Merry Christmas! I keep Christ in  Christmas because it matters to me. I was at a craft show recently and at one of the booth's I wished the vendor a Merry Christmas, he said Thank You and then said "I don't say anything anymore, you never know what people believe and I don't want to offend anyone" OK I get that, he is a businessman....however;  I replied...."I say Merry Christmas because it is what I believe" he said huh... I have never thought of it that way before... I work for the "worlds largest retailer" and I say Merry Christmas all season long, In all of the 23 years I have worked in retail, no one has ever said "don't say that to me" actually most people are kind of surprised to hear it if I judge by the look on their faces and most reply Merry Christmas to you too. So try it on for size, the next time you are out, wish the people in your path a Merry Christmas, I bet it will make
