I accidentally went shopping.

Ok so here are some pics of what I've been up to lately.
There are a few outgoing letters, and I did a shop at the scrapbooking store (oops). Also another letter from Olivia.

Today's outgoing mail

Outgoing for A Week Of Letters Swap

So this past week was consumed by writing a letter each day to a different partner through swapbot. It,was really enjoyable getting to read different profiles and meeting new people. I can't wait to get my letters in the mail from the people who were partnered with me!

Catching up on letters

We moved house this past weekend, and it's been exhausting!
I've a bunch of letters that I've been lucky enough to receive over the past week so I must get to replying very soon!

Just one letter going out this weekend

Happy Easter all! Did you get any fancy Easter mail? I know I sent off one, but for this long weekend, I managed just to get one letter written and that was for a swap I had made on swapbot.

In other news my laptop is really like, broken. It has a kind of virus and it won't let me post things or go to certain websites. So yet another item to add to my growing to do list!

I went to Howard's Storage shop today. Wow. Amazing. Got some great ideas, and also purchased some scented drawer liners. So cute but I wish they had masculine ones too.

#4 - Bad Book Habit

4. Bad Book Habit?

Leaving them around the place. I'm forever leaving large piles of books I've borrowed from the library in places where they will fall off. Like piling them ontop of the small ottoman we have in the lounge. All someone has to do is walk past and brush the edge of the books and they will all cascade to the ground!!!
Hrm. I'm going to have to find a safe place to put all my books I think!

The stuff that makes you smile

Well my mailbox finally had a smile on it because I recieved some great stuff last week.
Firstly, the penpal magazine from Ankepanke who is just awesome. I wish I had her handwriting and ability!  I loved the magazine and the little things she put inside it too.

Such an envelope full of smiles!

I got a letter from Chanou, complete with envies from a private swap that we did. And since she wrote me such a cute letter, I'm going to write her one back. She also sent me some various items including Hello Kitty tissues. How gorgeous!

The next letter was from my regular American penpal Stephanie who sent me some postcards of the place she lives, and a badge with my name on it. Loving the cute watermelon tag too.

Here is a letter I sent out to Amy at the very end of last week. She said she didn't really like cutesy girly stuff, so I hope that she likes this awesome envelope!

See you in the mail!

My Mail Week

Greetings!
Once again, mainly outgoing over the past few days.

Got some nice fruity tea to try!

Off to Patti in the USA

Off to Renae in Australia and Allie in the UK

I've been sorting through my writing papers and envelopes. But even after I do that, it still looks messy~! Gr!
I keep mine in a set of drawers.

How do you store your writing papers?

What Books Do you Have on Request at the Library?

Question 3


At the moment (would you believe it), none!
Every few weeks I collate a list and reserve them at the library. As it happens I've just come to the end of my list and so I need to start one again and start reserving.

2. What are you reading right now?

Question Two: What Are you Reading Right Now?

I just finished off reading three Cathy Glass books, which are quite full on (true stories about her foster caring experiences) and so I need something light and bright.  A while back I started reading The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty by Anne Rice. I suppose you could call it an erotic novel (although to be honest it's quite tame and I am enjoying the storyline better than the sex!), and finished off the second quickly also.  I have one more to read. Beauty's Release - so I think I'll snuggle up on the couch with a blanket and do some reading this afternoon.

What are YOU reading?
