2 thumbs & a dummy

Before KR came along, I was very active in Postcrossing. It is like a whole global network of postcard crazy people who sign up to receive postcards. The more you send out, the more you get and I was a regular, posting 5 official Postcrossing postcards and numerous swaps and tags and what-have-yous from their official forum. I was in postcard heaven then! My postbox would never fail to have at least 3 postcards a day – I really made the postman work for his money! lol

But these days, all the swapping has totally ceased. I can’t remember the last time I ever posted one but I did get one last week or so from someone random on FB. She was someone I swapped it many, many, MANY moons ago so much so that I had totally forgotten about her! lol Glad she still remembers me though. I remember that I used to spend a fair bit of money on this hobby of mine. In fact, as a remembrance of those days, I have boxes of postcards I don’t know what to do with. I treasure everyone of them but dont know what to do with them at the moment coz it’s taking up space! Wish I could swap them for money, really….most of these are bought postcards. I rather buy them as well than to be printing postcards out. Although I reckon it’s not such a bad idea to be printing postcards out for special occasions and send it out to family members say for Christmas. I’m still toying about the idea of doing so since there will be 5 of us by then. We’ll see how it goes…but it’s definitely a thought!
