I got your wonderful letter! Thank you so much! I will be writing back, soon! And guess what? You are in BetsyPreston's swaps, and she's my pen-pal (I just met her here!! She's awesome!) and SHE"S ShelleyM's pen-pal, too, and that's YOUR pen-pal, and I just wrote to her because she had written me so long ago and now I have TWO people--you and her! who intimidate me with your pen-paly greatness and artistic ways. (BetsyPreston has to get my mail no matter what, so even though I know her letters are better, I need her to listen to me ramble about my problems, so too bad if she doesn't like them that much.) That is to say: I loved your letter, I'm writing back, small world, and I make no promises, since I do more silly kinds of writing and odd decorating using crap up I already have, glued to the front of the envelope. But if you can stand me, then I'm happy! :)

Gah! They carry Midori refills. swoon

Ooooooh. Wonder Pens. Just the name of the shop makes me woozy. I'll check it out - thanks for the pointer!

G! Thank you for your wonderful letter and envie. Made my day, and then some.

Thank you for the amazing package with the envelope templates. I will get a lot of use out of them!

Lovely to hear from you! Yes, address is still the same. Looking forward to hearing about what you've been up to, when you're able.

Hey G-Lo! Sounds like you are in need of some seriously fancypants band-aids. Yikes. Best of luck with the sewing :)

Woohoo!!! Have you named your typewriter yet? :D

Yippee! I checked Staples and they carry pads of the Hilroy onionskin in stores -- where have I been?! No Monks on the Mainland (sniff).

Oooh. I came to tell you I opened a new swap, but since you already did, I will delete it. :)
