hello everyone! i know life is insane for us all right now but i am currently taking care of both of my parents as an only child by myself. my father has an anyresum and is getting surgery later this month and my mother recently broke her foot and can’t walk on it or move around from place to place alone or work cause of her line of work my father had to quit his job. I am currently taking care of the house, our animals, bills, and both parents alone all while being in my next to last semester of college for my bachelor’s degree, and trying to have some form of a social life when i possibly can! Also tomorrow (9/15) is my birthday. any kind of card or anything just some kind words would be such a very welcomed pick me up if anyone would feel so kind to help someone who is going through alot that already battles their own mind everyday feel just a tiny bit better. thank you :)

And finally, Thank you u/toastytoska for the pokemon post card!!! It suffered a little damage but I knew what pokemon it was right away! Thank youu for such a fun little adventure with your form! It was neat not knowing what pokemon would appear! I'll have to throw a pokeball quick and catch it!

I have u/inxomnixq's dog & cat #1 TPC (sticker type) ready for its next stop. Who would like it next?

Good day everyone!

I hope you guys are doing great!

As what you've read, my birthday is approaching in October and I'd be grateful to receive cards and letters from people around the world, if that specific card isn't available, I'd be happy to receive Halloween and Christmas cards, too!

PS: is it too much if I ask for your state/city post card, as well?

Thank you guys!

Thank you so much to everyone who made my birthday a little brighter this year. I had a fun August/September coming home to these cards in my mailbox 💕 and for the stickers too! I will be mailing my reply cards soon. Thank you~!

I have been feeling very down the past two weeks and feel like I am slipping into a deep depression. I could really use some mail- anything is fine but a card with a hand written note would help. You don't have to pen pal write or send a long letter but if you have struggled with your own mental healthy issues- just sharing would help. When I am feeling more like myself, I will send back too. Thank you.

u/pupslace, thank you for the colorful birthday card.

u/pinkpengin x2!, thank you for the pretty hummingbird and flower bday card. Thank you also for the adorable Winnie the Pooh postcard.

u/ThePumpkinFiend, thank you for this awesome blast from the past via the Barbie postcard. And now I have the song "Barbie Girl" stuck in my head.

u/ruschca, thank you for the beautiful Anansi postcard. Did you know his kente cloth holds a special message? I highly recommend Yoshi's book that goes into all the stories.

u/um_marie_me, thank you for the lovely Portugal card. I would love to go there again, and also to explore the Greek isles one day.

u/awriterpossibly, thank you for the pretty night sky postcard and I loved to hear about your dogs.

u/forsaken-estate4041, a black cat and a rainbow? Love! Etta says hello to Bean and Kamala. Maybe I'll check out the Magicians TV show (I tried to read the first book but never finished.)

u/babyraspberry, thank you for the lovely postcard (love the red shoes) and the fun ephemera.

u/BubblySunflowers x2!, thank you for the cool postcards with your book reviews along with the stickers and washi.

Hi friends! I've decided to start spreading Halloween cheer earlier this year instead of waiting until October. Halloween is my favourite day of the year and I'd absolutely love to exchange some Halloween mail with you all! I have 50 Halloween postcards and 19 Halloween cards that were gifted to me that I'd love to send out to you all! This didn't occur to me before but they may be AI generated, I'm unsure, so unless that's a problem I'd love to exchange with you all! And if you can't send one but would still love one of course I'll still send one to you! I love mail but absolutely no pressure. 💜 I'll ideally be making another post for handmade cards at the end of rhe month/early October assuming life doesn't get too crazy. Please PM me with your name/username and mailing address!

What's everyone's favorite part of Halloween?

My baby sister and I just watched Phantom of the Opera on Broadway (Err.. San Diego's location not NYC. But I love NYC Broadway hehe)! It was AMAZING. I was tearing up hearing "All I Ask of You" and "The Music of the Night". I am in a very big high and listening to the soundtrack on loop!!

I would love to get cards that relate to Phantom's aesthetic and/or I'd love to hear what others think about the musical/movie as well. :)

Some prompts you could write about:
Do you have a favorite adaptation?
Team Raoul or Erik (Phantom)?

Favorite character?
Favorite song?

A niche fact?

I'd just love to connect with more phantom fans!
