First letter will be going out in the morning.

Second week Christmas card is getting in the mail today :-)

LovelyLici 12/ 7/2012 #

I sent out the letter. Had a ridiculously busy week with a 5 year old in the office while trying to get work done. Haha! I went to mail it when I was on errands, but there was one person working in the post and six people waiting. (Of course, I need to see someone about postage to Netherlands.) Will get the card in the mail on Monday for SURE, and then the letter for week 3 on Wednesday. Sorry for the delay! I'll be on time with everything else! Looking forward to receiving the letter from you. :)

My 3rd week is going out today. I am looking forward to your mail :-) Kirsty

I got weeks 1 and 2 yesterday. :) I'm surprised they came so quickly! LOVE the elephant envelope and the little things you included. Thanks so much! I'm mailing out the postcard on Monday. I'll include some little goodies with the letter in week 5. :)

kirstyenarno 12/16/2012 #

I am glad you received the 1st two weeks. Week 4 will be in tomorrow's mail

LovelyLici 12/20/2012 #

My mom is travelling to Florida, USA on the weekend. I'm going to try to have week 6 ready to send with her so she can mail it from there and you can get it faster, and it won't cost me $24. (Seriously, those yellow envelopes 6x9" really cost that much to send to CANADA. Imagine Netherlands!) If that's okay with you, I'll send week 5 on week 6, so it's just switched around. Let me know! :)

kirstyenarno 12/21/2012 #

Perfectly fine :-) Is that 24 USD?? Don't ever spent that on my account, a nice letter will do, okay?! Thanks!

kirstyenarno 12/23/2012 #

My week 5 will be mailed out tomorrow.

LovelyLici 12/24/2012 #

My mom never got around to picking up the package. Haha. I guess I'll do the weeks in order. Aiming to put week 5 in the mail today, but it probably won't leave until 27th.

Yes, that's USD. Crazy, right? It's forced me to be a bit more creative in my type 2 and 3 swaps. I try to catch someone going to US to mail it for me, but not always possible. Don't worry. I will find some cool things that are light and not too bulky. :)

LovelyLici 12/31/2012 #

I got your week 3 letter + recipes today. I was very excited to receive it. :)

kirstyenarno 01/ 1/2013 #

My 6th week will be in the mail tomorrow!

LovelyLici 01/ 6/2013 #

I'm planning to mail week 6 tomorrow. I was having trouble remembering what I've already sent to you. Haha. I should have made a note. I hope you like everything I send to you. :)

LovelyLici 01/ 9/2013 #

Kirsty, I was very ill yesterday and didn't make it to the post. I am at work today, but struggling through. I have sever anemia, and my iron seems to be falling rapidly. My partner has to go out on errands tomorrow, so she will put it in the mail for me. I am so sorry I'm sending late.

LovelyLici 01/10/2013 #

Success! I got it sent off to you today! I also received your weeks 4 and 5. YAY! Thanks for the little things you included. I especially love the bookmark!

kirstyenarno 01/17/2013 #

Yeah I received your letter dated dec 26th!! Thanks for all the extra's :-) I am sorry to hear you were ill.I hope you're doing better now. Take care, and I'm looking forward to your next item. I'll reply soon!

LovelyLici 01/18/2013 #

I got your week 5 today. YAY! I was having a very crappy day, and then awesome mail came and made me happy. I got lots of recipes in the mail today, and I am anxious to share them with you. I already send week 6, but I would love to keep writing to you. Would you be interesting in continuing to write? I hope so! :) I LOVE the stickers you sent. There are so cool and different. I can't wait to get home and spread them out to look at them again. And I would definitely like to do a Type 3 swap with you some time. I found out the post office doesn't tell us about "Surface mail". We have to ask for it specifically. That makes it MUCH cheaper to send. Imagine!

kirstyenarno 01/21/2013 #

Yeay!! I'd love to keep writing.I am glad my mail made your day a happy one! :-) I am looking forward to the recipes. Take care, and I'll write again soon.
