Retro Housewives was a fabulous swap. ALL of the cards were outstanding, but a couple, I think really summed up the theme very succinctly. Glenda Miles' "Last Night Ira Asked For a Divorce , with the perfectly coiffed smiling faced woman drinking her coffee, just says it all for me.
And Pam Poor's "Latest in Alien Pest Control" sums up the paranoia of the times perfectly. Yes, you were just expecting a fun swap, not a Sociological analysis, but I'm a Sociologist at heart - so unfortunately you're stuck with it. lol
Hi Darlings,
This is very important Re: your SASE- any envelope over 1/4" thick is non-machinable, so needs to be hand canceled which requires 13 cents additional postage. So basically, because we allow for embellished cards you need to use at least 54 cents worth of postage - some of you have been using 3/39 cent stamps - way overkill~not neccessary .
Also - perfectly square envelopes, (.54), and over 1 oz. is obviously extra - so if in doubt - go with two stamps -
Thanks so Much!!
p.s. - thank you, thank you! to all of you who send me little giftees, I just can't tell you how much I enjoy them!!
