We are located in the valley and the summer temps are usually in the 90s-100s. It's really hot here! Take care and keep on swapping...

Comment: Greetings partner, Many thanx for the wonderful bird book that you sent me. I do so enjoy searching for some of the birds in the book and reading about them. I apologize for my tardy rating but life has a way of getting us bogged down. I look forward to swapping with you again in the future. Blessings
Response: Thank you for the heart. I love birds but rarely see the colorful ones. We once rescued a a black bird and her babies at home in VA when I was very young. The tree had been cut down.When the babies could fly, they left.

Comment: Thank you for the letter. My father was a stamp collector when he was alive. He tried to get me interested in it but I was too young. I know at one time he told me he had his collection insured for 1 million dollars. My parents were divorced and he remarried and I have no idea what ever happened to his collection when he passed away.
Response: Stamps can be very valuable. Mine are not. I know more about the value of post cards.One man at the stamp club has a collection of stamps that go through the mail and are unusual. They may sing like a bird, if you press them, made of unusual products, and so many strange features. Thanks for the heart. I am sorry you did not inherit his collection.

Comment: Your choice of postcards for this swap are perfect. Thank you. I was a farm girl growing up, too. We had cows, pigs, chickens , turkeys and cats of course. No donkeys or horses , though!! We grew corn, potatoes, and lots of alfalfa. I know a little bit about those haystacks and bales of hay, too. I wouldn’t change a thing about growing up like we did! We learned how to work and be thankful for what we had! I miss those days and my mom and dad!!! Sending a surprise your way. Hugs.

Comment: I found that Kazuo Ishiguro makes The Remains of the Day fascinating by showing how making what is being said is just as interesting as what is not being said. The audiobook really conveyed the loneliness of Stevens. And the novel brilliantly shows starkness between "upstairs / downstairs" and the bittersweet emotions of REGRET. This is set against the backdrop of the world around them is about to explode into WWII & change forever. Glad we picked the same book. xxMuggleMom
Response: Nothing was ever the same after WW1 as servants gradually found other work and the wealth of many dwindled. I remember enjoying "Upstairs Downstairs" on PBS even more than Downton Abbey. Thanks for the heart.

Although at my age, I don’t like to see time passing too fast. 😉 Our weather here is usually mild in winter, but it seems too cold to us. Today is dreary gray and rainy. 🌧 I just dug up the last of my sweet potatoes from the garden earlier this month. And my collard greens are still producing, so I can’t complain. 🍠 🥬
Response: Thank you. I love collard greens. The last time I went to Cracker Barrel, they had changed their menu. No more collard greens! Raining today here with snow coming tomorrow.

I love all the pcs that you sent me - I think all pcs before 2000 should be fine but not my swaps, so... I do hope we start trading some of the large "vintage" pcs soon though, as I have tons of those, so time will tell! I am not a fan of winter either and I am amazed at how quickly this year is flying by - even with the COVID stuff still lingering, maybe due to getting a puppy and some other changes that are happening? I am so sorry that you have not gotten to visit in person with your daughter in the UK since 2019 - that is so long when our loved ones are that far away! Praying things get better soon and you all can visit! Thanks again for everything you sent - so sweet of you! All the Best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)

Comment: Update: Thank you for resending. Really cute kitty 😺 interesting quote. Have to think about that... Changed rating from a 1 to a 3. I would have rated a 5 if I had received a response to the first message I sent on the 11th. By not responding to my first message, it could be assumed by some people that you had never really sent the swap at all. Please remember that communication in swaps is a key part of the swap. Originally: attempted to contact you on July 11th about 20 days after swap deadline when nothing was received. There was no response to this first message. The message was clearly marked as you Had Read it. After the second attempt to communicate and giving you 1 rating, THEN you contacted me and stated I had rated a 1 without warning. This was not true, and I sent you a cut and paste of the message from the 11th, which shows you had read it. Please remember that communication in swaps is also an important part of the swap.
Response: Second card will be there soon.

Response: I went long ago to Italy. I even went to the Olympics for a few events the first time I went to Europe in 1960. I continued to visit Europe all through the 60s. I have been to Asia several times, to Israel, but not South America and Africa. I should have gone to Kenya and Brazil. Too late now!! I haven't the money. And, too many dying of the COVID.

It's been hot here, not too humid although there have been clouds in the sky, threatening to rain, but nothing so far. Yes, Patrick Swayze died much too young - I read his book "Time of my Life" by him and his wife, it was nice to know more about him, but it did make me sad for sure.

Comment: Loved everything! By the way, your envelope barely survived the journey. Machines were pretty rough on it. It was ripped half way across the bottom and the back of the envelope was ripped partway up. Only one tortured sticker remained. I can tell there were two others. So glad it held together enough that I received it! Thank you so much! My sister-in-law and son talked about the Christmas markets in Germany! One day I'd love to go there! Our masks have been off since April. Numbers are down. My Aunt and Uncle (in their 80s) and their daughter (39) got both of their vaccines, and a few days after the 2nd shot, were exposed to covid, and they all got sick. They are still sick--asthma type lung issues. I'm still hibernating!

I love the "grow" card - I am trying to grow a container veggie garden for the first time this spring/summer - there are a few tiny tomatoes growing and I see some radishes are growing too, woohoo! I love the vintage look of the White Star Line card - makes me think of The Queen Mary here in California, or of course The Titanic! Our books are in every room - and I mean every room, bathroom included! We have bookcases in each room, hallway, bedroom...my husband and I love books! I have many I have never read but "intend to" - some are collectables, some were my Grandma's and some I cut up for crafting when I hit book sales or little free libraries. My husband and I want to start our own Little Free Library, but I want to TRY to build it myself - they are too expensive if you buy it from that group outright. My husband has been to London twice and wants to take me there and I have been to Paris twice and want to take HIM there - it will be 9 years of marriage for us this September and we wanted to go for a "honeymoon" but now he works full time and we have 4 cats so I fear a 2 week dream vacation may be out... but we can dream! Take care and have a lovely day.

A couple of book recommendations: Mrs. Queen takes the train by William Kuhn and Major Pettigrew's last stand by Helen Simonson--both witty, good stories with a little romance.

Kyna’s only ever barked to alert me of suspicious people on the property & I love that! The “yip-yip” dogs that bark if a fly sneezes are stressful to me. My Kyna’s been the trusty eyes and ears keeping my anxiety in-check for a long time, but I think her age is catching up with her now. LOL!

Comment: Jean, Thank you so much for the old postcard as well as the long letter! I enjoyed reading about your travels. I can only imagine the stories you have from all the places you've been. It sounds like we both enjoyed Prague the same, Charles Bridge was my favorite and I had dreamed of going there for many years. It was still very inexpensive, relative to the other places we went. We didn't go on a tour, just my teenaged daughter and I chose a few places we wanted to go most and went to each place as we pleased. However, it was too few days in each place and we want to go everywhere again, and for longer stays! But there are also many places on our list of places to go. Hopefully travelling will be allowed again soon! Thanks for sharing your stories with me! <3
Response: Thank you. Travel enriches us. We learn there are places in the world and people in the world we love. We never forget. We can't be narrowminded.

Comment: Hello Jean, thank you for the postcards. Crazy how your envelope was torn - I think the machine mangled it as it wasn't opened like a "normal" person would open an envelope. The virus situation is getting worse here - many of our counties are back in the "purple" phase (the worst) - so many people will NOT stay home, will NOT wear masks and will NOT stop gathering in groups. *sigh* My husband and I do our best to stay healthy and safe. Did you get your rain and snow? We had one day of rain, but then this week it was 90 degrees - so weird, but it's California...usually dry and "decent" weather. I hope all is well with you - and as you stated in your card, we will know the election outcome...well, now we know - let's see how things go down between now and January. Take care and be well.

Comment: This was a really cute swap and I appreciate your time and effort. Unfortunately this was not even close to the required 100gms that the swap required, so that's a little disappointing. 8/27 update - I've noticed that you said the post office worker said it was the correct weight and it was not. It wasn't even 50 grams, it was 38 so less than half. I weighed it because it was considerably light and I put a lot of effort into this swap.
Response: I am sorry it didn't weigh enough. My postal clerk said it was right on the weight. No more, no less.

I love living in Georgia, though it took some getting used to. When people were nice to me when I first got here, I thought they were joking. But now I'm used to everyone being nice and being nice back. It's always sunny and green here except for short times during hurricane season. I love Chicago, too. That's one of my fav places to visit. Thanks for a great swap! :):):)

Comment: The zoo is open right now, but none of the inside exhibits are, only the outdoor ones. No buses or trams either. And of course masks and temperature are required. Even though it's open, we haven't gone. Our zoo has kept us busy; it can be costly when new equipment needs to be purchased or someone has to go to the vet but most food is bought in bulk which keeps prices down! We made the promise going into this that we would never have more than we're capable of caring for. So far we're living up to that!

They both agreed (different households) that the "head cold" feeling is the worst part. I hate feeling like I'm in a can and stuffy and things kind of echo, so I understand what they mean. It's kind of nice knowing someone who has it, it's really not as scary as everything makes it sound. I hope you are safe and happy and I really can't wait to travel around again, NYC is on my list too!

Comment: I'm going through my missing and unrated swaps now that it is the end of the year and lo and behold, I commented but didn't change it to a five so the rating never saved. I'm so sorry for the delay! Here is my original comment in addition to the five and heart you so rightly deserve. "Yes, rabbit care can be quite expensive - they aren't good "starter pets" contrary to popular belief. Carrots should be a rare treat, they have a high sugar content. Leafy greens are preferred in addition to specialized pellets. All house rabbits can be box trained although males will spray if they aren't neutered! And yes, given the mind they will chew EVERYTHING. When letting them roam, everything has to be baby-proofed! If it's a danger to a baby, it's a danger to a bunny. I hope the Huey's Heroes reading program continues to expand, it's done my kids and the animals so much good. Thank you for your letter, I thoroughly enjoyed it."

Comment: Hi and thank you for the great Christmas card and the extras ♡ Flea markets/2nd hand shops are very common here. During summer the market squares and some parking lots have weekend flea markets outside. You just put a table out and sell your stuff :) Facebook second hand groups have replaced a lot of actual sellers out though. The shops here are mostly "rent a table, bring your stuff and a shop keeper does the selling". You just price your stuff and leave it there, eg for a week. I should probably rent a table again. :) A trip on a cruise liner, like you were in, sounds a lot of fun. Would love to see cities like that! I've been on a (route) cruise liner to Stockholm, Tallinn and Travemünde in Germany (different times), Thanks for everything, tea will be drank tonight♡

I write scripts--movie or stage. I used to collaborate with a couple of others on film scripts. I love that--collaboration, that is. Recently, I've been working on more stage plays since I'm acting in more of them, and a studio I belong to will produce original scripts. I'm hoping to see one of mine staged. I've already had one done as a staged reading. Super fun! Thanks for the cute little bag, too!

A similar thing inspired my love of donkeys: When I lived in Texas there was a donkey that used to hang out by the side of the road near the highway/strip mall I used to drive by. He wore a big red bow sometimes. I used to pull over and get out and pet him through the fence! I might have to drive up to Vermont just to see it (and Bernie!) :-)

The Cyrillic text was about an artist or writer named "Adolphe". Being German, I am allergic to this name, so I won't be using this particular piece of epemera, but some of the others I have already used. Thank you, too, for your quotes.

Comment: Thank you for the story. It definitely has great potential to be a novel! There's so much room for detail in this piece. I hope you kept a copy for revision/revisiting as I think this would be a lovely tale to explore more in depth. I don't mind that it was handwritten however in the future I would recommend clearing it with your partner beforehand. If the swap requires it, they would be within their right to rate down and I'd hate to see that. Thanks again for sharing!

Glad you are also an indie film lover -- I am looking forward to Florence Foster Jenkins and A Tale of Love and Darkness. I sometimes wish I lived in a bigger city (at least Houston) that would get the films sooner or at all :) Hope you have a good week!

Comment: Thank you for the watercolor card, how fun! Haha, I noticed it said Electronic too but thought the host just accidentally picked it, I can see why it was confusing. My town is actually known for its live mermaid shows and just an hour north of Tampa. I kind of live in a rural area so I know what you mean by enjoying visiting the city from time to time. Thank you again!

Comment: I received a card full of card sleeves with a couple of stickers slapped on. They were all individual ATC sleeves when I contacted you on if you wanted to research what a pocket letter was a resend without anymore extras I only wanted to receive the sheet to put in my binder there was no response. Since this was left unrated I tried to contact again and mistakenly said I didn't receive once I cleared that up I was accused of receiving and lying about wanting to get more which is not the case at all I only wanted a decorated pocket letter. I again reminded swapper to research what a pocket letter should be. I do not want to be accused of trying to get more than what I signed up for and be accused of being a liar doesn't sit well with me either.

I count four different items, not five as per swap requirements. I am incredibly disappointed.
Response: I am sorry you appear offended. Since you are disappointed, I shall re-send and try to please. Since my computer is broken, and I borrow for short periods, my husband's IPad, I may not have read your profile closely enough. I shall send more things, and hope you will choose to change this 3, which, as you see, I don't get from others.

Comment: Thank you so much for sending me such a gorgeous postcard, Jean. I loved reading your message and learning a little more about you and your life. Over the past couple of years I've slowly begun exploring the south, and have really fallen in love with so many places, customs and histories there. My husband works offshore, and as his company is based out of Houston we've tried to take advantage of his traveling in order to see parts of Louisiana, Texas, North Carolina, Georgia and South Carolina-- with more trips planned. To a Canadian such as myself it can feel like a foreign place, but I've learned so much and always look forward to these little "adventures". :) Anyway, I do look forward to swapping more with you in future, and am sending you lots of love and happy thoughts for springtime! xo

Comment: Thanks very much for the lovely parcel. Considering you say you're not crafty, the crown is brill. I've never seen the UK stickers before. They're lovely, and my favourite colour yellow, so the teabag holder has found a place next to my yellow kettle. Thank-you. I'm optimistic my sight will return. It's been 10 months, so I'm keeping everything crossed :)

Comment: Love the cards and gift tags, but I especially loved your letter. It was great to hear about your cat. Mine is fond of potato chips and ice cream, but she seldom gets any. The pugs do get skin problems, but one of the problems they have is because their eyes are so shallow, they can easily lose an eye. Who would have thought? Thanks again. Susan (brooklynbunch)

Comment: Thanks for your card and your many haiku! I understand about writing many more. It's kind of hard to stop once you get started! Nice that you get to spend part of the year in San Juan. When I lived on St Thomas I used to fly over on the seaplane when I'd get rock fever. And once I stowed away on a cruise ship between the islands -- well sort of. My boyfriend at the time was a Norwegian crewmember & he smuggled me into his cabin. The captain knew I was there but turned a blind eye! Enjoy a wonderful summer.

Comment: Thanks so much for the postcards! I also loved the kitten notecard. Too cool on having three senior cats at once. One was deaf huh? Wow. My roommate's 20 year old cat (who had to be put down eventually) became blind and it made it harder for us but not her. :) It was in the 90's all week here but yesterday and today it was only about 86-88. I will give my kitty a special hug for you. :)

Comment: Hey Jean. Thank you for sharing a wonderful postcard with me. That's so awesome that you're a retired psych nurse! I actually did my under graduate work in psychology and sociology and masters in psychology but had a change in heart. I feel like it was more rewarding working as a nurse so I'm completing the steps to get there. It is a hard road but I wont give up until I get there :) Hopefully you get to visit SF soon. My boyfriend lives there and I go there quite often, the weather has been amazing. I love it. Take care and have a great weekend!
Response: I have a BS in Psych but not masters. I loved teaching which I did for a few years. My daughter started out in nursing and now has switched to masters in social work. I said it is not profitable and can be a burnout. She pursues.

Comment: Thanks a lot for the tea - I can't wait to try the iced tea on a hot day! I also loved your nice cards :) Yes, I suppose that coffee is more popular in Germany in general but in the northwest of the country (in East Frisia) black tea is the "national" drink. I always have to smile when people tell me how hard-working Germans are as I'm not sure this is correct. We do get a lot of (paid) vacation time and we have lots of public holidays throughout the year when we don't have to work :) But nice to read that you like my country! I've been to New Hampshire once and loved it - and I certainly wouldn't mind the snow :)
