Oh my goodness. How LONG has it been since my last blog post? I'm not really sure what I was thinking. XD Posting two postcards for each blog post? That was wayyyy too involved for someone like me. Creative, but unable to sit still for too long. Seriously. Two hours and my toes are dragging my body out the door.
But, it's not like I've forgotten this magical blog. It's been on my mind since I've been Postcrossing like a fiend! Everything had kind of been on the back burner lately, my life is taking control of it's self. I'm not the most appreciative person of that fact. Now, don't get me wrong. Thinking that someone would be able to take over and tell me what to do would be a wonderful addition every now and then. But my life has not been making choices that benefit me. Hahaha. Not bad decision, mind you. Just lots of them within short periods of time. Talk about being stressed out! Thankfully, things have finally slowed down for me to stop and smell the roses for a little bit. And boy, do they smell pretteh.
The other day, I was perusing the interwebs for more places like Postcrossing, as the number of penpals I keep has dwindled. It happens. Life takes off and more important things come into play. I understand that. It's happened to me on occasion. So, I just dust myself off and keep searchin'! I stumbled across this website that had the word Postcrossing in it, and to say the least, I was intrigued. Clicky-click went my mouse and I was thrust into a world I would not soon leave.
This place is beyond amazing. It holds the secrets to all the penpals, direct swaps, postcard sendings, and snailmailing you can handle! What is it, you ask? Nothing other than the Postcrossing Forum. Dangerous grounds, my friends. Let it be said that I've warned you. Once you click past their opening page, you'll never leave.
I, of course, jumped right in, ending with a HUGE cannonball splash. The creativity in my mind, that rears it's huge, independent head, was running away with ideas. I was hooked like a largemouth bass fighting the pull of an angler's hook. Forum topics that ranged from general information to postcard swaps to tags to traveling notebooks. An entire plethora of penpal/swap type ideas that really get me going. :)
I've signed up for a couple already and believe me, I'll be documenting my journey. The wonderful thing about this, is that everyone has to keep everyone on top and aware. As a result, I'll be getting new assignments and posting what I feel would be entertaining! :)
I hope some of you are still with me. Sit down, buckle in , and get ready for a fun ride. This is going to get interesting.
Until my next misadventure,
Jesssayy
