Description:

The Wacky Days PC swap is a take on the wacky, strange, bizarre holidays swaps, but with postcards. Send your one partner a postcard that fits one of the themes for the week.

Week 13 is Monday, March 23 though Sunday, March 29. Here is a list of Wacky Days:

23 National Chip and Dip Day

23 Near Miss Day

24 National Chocolate Covered Raisin Day

25 Pecan Day

25 Waffle Day

26 Make Up Your Own Holiday Day

26 National Spinach Day

27 National "Joe" Day

28 Something on a Stick Day

29 National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day

29 Smoke and Mirrors Day

Darn it! I think I just sent my last waffle PC yesterday!

  • one partner, one postcard, naked & written with a nice note and reminds your partner of which day from the list your card represents

  • all types of postcards acceptable except handmade and free/ad

  • 4.97 rating minimum and open to all group members in good standing. I do check profiles during sign up and before assigning partners. I will angel if needed after you've contacted your partner and had to rate them a 1.

The list of wacky days I will use consistently is Holiday Insights so please feel free to browse future weeks for possible postcards to use from your stash. The website does list some normal holidays too, I will include them since I am using that list, but I encourage you to find the wackiest one from your stash each week.

This is a tough week to come up with a PC! lol

For "Make Up Your Own Holiday Day", could you pick a PC and then make up the name of a silly fictional holiday to go with the image?

If Èaster is a wacky holiday (see the following week), then Palm Sunday must be wacky, too

@TerryF yup, sort of sender's choice but make up a silly celebration!

Other ideas: the. Website link says near miss is for astroidd near misses so maybe a space themed pc. It says national "joe" day is about changing your name for a day - so maybe a sender's choice and you talk about what you'd change your name to? Lot of food choices if you happen to have one of those. Smoke and mirrors - something like an illusion, mysterious, deciding, tricky, hiding? Or literally smoke or mirror on the pc. Bunsen burner...camping or tent pc, doctor...medicinalia type, or. art, photo depicting doctor. Park PC... maybe a keep calm and... for the I am in control day... it is okay to be creative!

@Swan I really don't know why this website includes some "standard" holidays, if you will, on the wacky list and why they don't have all the standard ones if they have some. I just picked this one because most of them are strange and have clicky links to read about the days if interested.

So I'll say no Palm Sunday since it isn't from the list I'm drawing from.

@TerryF and everyone - just noticed I got ahead. Of myself with ideas. Park, doctor, & control are for the following week.

EmilyT 03/15/2015 #

And so is bunsen burner.
