Comment: TYSM for the so yummy sounding Spicy Vegetable soup. I think my son Blaze (30) will love it! As I can't do Spicy foods with an Ulcer, sadly and it sucks! 😦 I wish I could leave out the spices. Because I so love Butternut squash.

Comment: Thank you for the cute penguin card and the extras. When we had a dog and cats we would take the turkey extras--neck, gizzards, and stew a special broth for the. They would dance around the kitchen in anticipation. After they had all passed on our next cat ignored the Thanksgiving treats--totally not interested.

Comment: Thank you Lilah for the lovely Christmas card and the little extras. Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving and all the best for the Christmas holiday season. God bless, Karen.
Comment: Thank you for the nice card and the One Day at a Time card. I really appreciate the card. Back in 2011 one time my Husband was in the hospital and I was just getting ready to get out of the car to go see him when this song came on. I had to stop and listen all the way through as that was what we were doing at that time. Just taking things one day at a time.

Diane

Comment: Thanks for your email! I saw the prime meridian but accidentally approached from the wrong side and skipped the line, so many British people tutting at me!!
Comment: Hi Lilah! Thank you for the share about your weekend and the pc! I would never think I would only spend a hour or so at a vintage pc show! LOL! How wonderful that you found so many awesome buys - it is amazing that postage was only .04 in the 1960's - times have changed! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Comment: Such a lovely swap! Happy St. Patricks Day! I love the card and seeds, esp the library seeds. I love the idea of a library garden! You did a wonderful job on this swap, thank you.
Comment: Thank you for the adorable card and all the GOODIES! My parents are the same. They go to the Dollar Tree and read cards to each other without buying them, then go home! Cracks me up!
Comment: Thanks for sharing! And an open window IS a television for cats! But sometimes when I will be gone (not for too long) I turn on the actual television for my two kittens. I think one of them actually watches it sometimes, ha-ha!
Comment: Thank you, Lilah. I had to chuckle at your mailing because you either didn't read my Profile or you purposely sent me images I have on my Dislike list. 😂 The pug card, the gnome sticker... LOL However, I do LOVE the "love" postage stamp you used, the heart washi and heart sticker and that adorable smiling cloud sticker. I think it's called kawaii? Very cute! 😍 Happy Valentine's Day! ♥️... Karla, 2/14/23

Stacey

Comment: Thank you for your card and the pretty butterfly stickers! I love Valentine's so much, I had no problem starting early. :-P I would love to see your card collection sometime! I hope you've had a great new year so far!
Comment: Thanks for taking the time to answer all these questions! You've been busy for sure in 2022! May 2023 bring you lots of new experiences and good health!
Comment: Thanks for note and blank notecard. Loved reading about your nephew. It seemed to take extra long to get the tree decorated this year for me. My daughter went to a Christmas party at church that did a waffle bar.
Comment: Hi there Lilah! Two cards in a row! Funny how the AI sorts who gets which partner. I have sent as much as 4 cards to the same person during this series. Either way, Hope your holiday is lovely. Happy Christmas.

Comment: Lilah! Love your PC - also love your stickers - the Weiner dog in a Christmas tree sweater! Squeal! Stay warm when the snow does hit :) Be well!
Comment: Lucky Nephew! Glad your tree is up and decorated. Mine still isn't. Don't think I will be putting one up this year, as I am going to daughters house for Christmas again this year, no sense for me to decorate. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May your Holidays be everything you wish for and more. Hugs, Brenda

Comment: Hi Lilah! Thank you so much for that beautiful Cardinal Christmas card! I love it! I also love all those very cool Maryland printables! Thank you!! Merry Christmas!
Comment: Thank you for the adorable card and the goodies. The Christmas tree is safe as long as it is in a corner or up against something. The ornaments may or may not be safe. Sometimes it is a tail sometimes a mouth. One year, candy canes kept disappearing. We put up a camera and found our lab was collecting and stashing them in the couch. Under the cushions we found 7 candy canes!!
Comment: Hola Lilah - your snowman is so cute - love the PC. For some reason, I thought MD would have snow? thanks for teaching me that! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!

My first PINK card to go with my pink Christmas decor! AND my first inspirational card! I was just telling my daughter today I might have to make a special request on my Profile for religious or inspirational cards because noone is sending them. LOL I just love everything about your card and it will be sitting on a tabletop with my Christmas decor. Thank you! Thank you also for the "Have Hope" Vicky Barone notecard and the pink punch-out paper ornament! Just a wonderful gift of a card swap all around. I'll be featuring on my IG so come see your card there! Have a Merry Christmas! 🎄♥️... Karla, 12/6/22
Comment: Lilah! This card is SO COOL! I really appreciate that you sent it my way - I will be sure to enjoy it this year and...maybe fashion it into a holiday card for next year! The Moosewood Restaurant recipe cards are a nice touch too - I used to own a cookbook but it got lost in a move at some point. I'll be sure to give both a try. Thank you so much for the care you put into your package. Happy Christmas.
Comment: Thank you, Lilah, for your card I received. I haven't opened it yet as I think I'm waiting until after Thanksgiving. Not sure yet. LOL Have a wonderful holiday season!... Karla, 11/18/22 UPDATE: Today is December 1st and I've begun opening Christmas cards! I LOVED the wintery town scene on the Christmas card you sent to me! It was the perfect card to be the FIRST one I opened. 😊 I featured it over on my IG and tagged you. Thank you for the 3 paper samples. Have a Merry Christmas! 🎄♥️... Karla, 12/01/22
Comment: Thank you for the card and extras. Love the fact that there was a black cat on the card. My Morton is the best cat every. Very chilled and loves to cuddle.
Comment: Thank you for the lovely upcycled card you sent! I love the fall colors too and miss that now that I live in the Arizona desert. It's a different kind of pretty here.
Comment: Thanks so much for the great card! Hope your downsizing continues to go well for you.... I know it is going well for me! I am doing the same thing. The thrift store loves when I come to drop stuff off! Happy Halloween!
Comment: Thanks for the cute card & goodies. Grayson hung up your card on the door with the others I've gotten. He always looks forward to it :) Happy Halloween!!
Comment: Thank you for the cute card and the list of your favorite candy! Alot of your favorites are mine too! Of course, I can't say I'm exactly fussy when it comes to candy! Lol!
Comment: I love the little activities book; I agree I don't want to scare little kids. Yes, this time of year is awesome for trees looking like they are on fire.
Comment: Thank you for the butterfly card! The masterclass by an astronaut sounds interesting! I hope you learned something about space or living on the ISS! Thanks for the extra cards!

Comment: Hi Lily! Great to hear about your weekend! Good luck sorting...when you're done, please consider coming to help me...ha ha! Thank you for the tuck ins...I love the vintage recipes and botany pages. Have a great weekend! Warmly, Ginger
Comment: Your simple joys that others often overlook are spot on! Many of them I also find joy in - especially looking at the lawn after it has been mowed.
Comment: Thank You for the BIG post card. Swap Bot proves that it's not such a big world after all. You wrote that your parent was from Mason City, Iowa. I live 32 miles East of Mason City. Was there today. I also lived in Maryland. In Laurel and then at Fort Meade. In fact my son was born at Fort Meade Hospital. Take Care and thanks again.
Comment: So fun to hear what you’ve found to do in my area. our light bulb has a little celebration each year so I have pictures of my kids with it, and I actually work in our lovely downtown. I’m glad you enjoyed learning about my town! :-)
Comment: Thank you for the article. This article is why my dog is never more than 10 feet from me! He would surely fi d himself in danger off leash or unsupervised. Glad this story had a happy ending.
Comment: Your church is beautiful! I love the beautiful banner - Our Redeemer Lives! Years ago the pastor of the church we were attending at that time talked 5 of us ladies into making 6 new banners for the church. That was the hardest job I ever got myself into so I really admire beautiful banners. (from afar) LOL!
Have a blessed day!
Hugs,
Diane
Comment: Thank you for your email. Like you, I also hate talking over the phone. My day starts at 4 in the morning as it is nice and quiet and I can get my focus for the day ahead.
Comment: Thanks for sharing your answers. Sorry? Dolly Parton is not a person from history, she is still alive! She is even touring now. Must be a joke.
Comment: Fun happy face card! Oh, grilled corn on the cob, and watermelon sounds so summery and wonderful! And watching movies instead of hanging out at the pool during thunder storms was probably a good call! Laughs! Thanks for sharing your weekend with me.
Comment: Thanks again for another swap! I love this old fashioned Christmas card and loved your note and the PC of Waves ! I love these swaps! So much fun!
Comment: Sounds like you had a nice weekend! I'm happy to hear your nephew had a lovely time at the pool. Thank you for sending, and also thank you for the extras!

Comment: Hi again! Thank you for your notecard! It's warm and muggy here as well, I can't wait for the fall. I wish I had a green thumb! I'd love to see a picture of your zinnias sometime.
Comment: Thank you for sharing your view, it is very interesting to see something different, most of us only think "White House", "Capitol" and the other places on the list for tourists when we think of D.C.!
Comment: Thank you for the pretty note card and for sharing with me about going to visit your sister and walking the dog, I enjoyed reading! Thanks for the nice post cards too! Enjoy your week!
Comment: Thanks for the great postcard. I agree with you. I'm thankful for these coloring PC swaps. I love to color. I put positive/encouraging messages on the back of mine and abandon them in the library for strangers to find.
Comment: Hi! Received that great postcard in today’s mail ~ thank you so much! Love the panoramic postcard .. I have been there and you are right - the views are stunning! Have an awesome weekend!

Comment: Enjoyed seeing the photos from the astronomy class and the eclipse! I love astronomy ever since I took a class about it in high school. That's great that your nephew gave you the opportunity to join him in his class.
Comment: Thanks for the note and all the stickers. Sounds like you had a great visit with your sister and her kids. I had a great Mother’s Day weekend.
Comment: Oh my goodness I so appreciated this card! I loved the Sage on it. I have been playing this character named Sage in a table top game so it was extra special. That quilt exhibit sounds so cool! And I super appreciated those stickers, they were so perfectly chosen for me. You really did brighten my day.
Comment: Love the Pooh envie and stationary. The card is awesome and I used to love reality shows 20 years ago when they first aired but now I can’t stand em cause they are so predictable and boring. I loved survivor in early days when. They were still vulnerable and not like today where it feels staged and actory. Thanks again
Comment: Thank you for the beautiful card and your nice message. I'm glad you are close to your family. I want to move closer to my family, even though I only live 5 miles from them. Still not close enough. :) Thank you for the extras too. Very much appreciated!

Comment: Thank you for the sweet card, and beautiful hand-colored scripture card. I hope your didn't get pinched! :) (My son got my husband this year!)
Comment: Thank you so much! I'm sure I'll also find a use for the 'extra' paper sheets, too.
Update: Have you heard of the #TrashChallenge or #TrashCleanupChallenge ? It's year-round, every year, doable in all places. Just pick 1 space, no matter how large or small outdoors, and clean it up. Take some before/after photos and you can post them to social media. If you want, you can tag other people to try the challenge. It can be as ambitious as organizing a meetup event to clean a whole beach or it can be as small as you cleaning up pne bus stop with some cheap gloves and one outdoor garbage bag. Since you already help clean up the neighborhood, it may be a fun challenge to post about!
Comment: Hi Lilah! Thank you so much for the beautiful Monet card and pretty papers - Monet is one of my favorite artists & I now have your card hanging on my fridge :-)
Comment: Thank you for the uplifting article and note explaining why it meant something to you. It’s a great article indeed. One suggestion: please add the title of the swap and your Swapbot user name somewhere in what you send (for ease in rating). Happy Mailing…
Comment: I got the most charming swap today in my mailbox! The note card you wrote the sweet message/note on, the goodie note card, and the journal tag were all so sweet and charming. Not only did it brighten my week, but it warmed my heart ♡ Thank you ♡
Comment: Great Hummingbird card! Thank You! I enjoy Postcrossing as well, tho I only send a pc or two a week, if that. Thanks for the extras, too. That vintage pc of Native American art is brilliant!
Comment: Thank you for the lovely St Patrick’s Day card! I love it…and I’m so tickled with the small envelopes! I’ll use them joyfully. Peace- Happy Swaps
Comment: Many thanks for re-sending. This one arrived quickly. I looked at the cache on the app... A bit far from where I live but who knows if I travel to USA one day...
Comment: Hello, Lilah! Thank you for sharing about your weekend. I recently had to scan all of my grandma's photos so my mom and her sisters can have digital copies of them. Just like you, we have so many photos of my grandparents with relatives or friends that no one really knows. One of my aunts likes to keep everything though. I hope you enjoyed reminiscing. Pandas are adorable, I'll have to visit that zoo if I'm ever in Washington DC. Also, thank you for the postcards - I love them!
Comment: Such a beautiful postcard!! The cubs are tooo cute! We have had below freezing temps here in southern Ga! I'm ready for it to warm up so I can plant my seeds and have a beautiful garden this spring. Using this card for one of my journals! Thank you.
Comment: Sounds like you had a great January. I need to start reading again. My daughter had trouble with her truck battery. Luckily it was just a loose cable. Happy February and rock your jewelry and sweaters!
Comment: Did you get the foot of snow you were expecting? How did the shoveling go?? We got about 6" total! Got some drifts that were a bit higher. Thankfully we have a snow blower coz our driveway is double sized and that would have been crazy to shovel!!!
Thanks for the great upcycled valentine card! xx Gabi
Comment: Hi Lilah, I read your letter 3 times, you write in a very beautiful style and I enjoyed your stories ... I wish you lots of cards and love on Valentine's Day and every day of the year!
Comment: You've got a point! Having an excuse to eat chocolate is the best! Thanks for the adorable doggo card & the fun inserts! Happy Valentine's Day!
Comment: Orienteering sounds like a lot of fun! Sorry to hear about your mother's death. That's good that you were able to gather in 2021 with your aunts to remember her. Congratulations on your new job!
Comment: Received your swap today. Thanks very much, for the so cute Snoopy card with your nice note, and 3+1 PC's! My favorite is the Lighthouse. We here don't have any Valentine's tradition either & in fact don't celebrate it, that is my hubby & I don't. But I do love the Valentine cards. Happy early Valentin's Day!
Comment: Loved your email and answers - and now I'm going to read Hey Kiddo too. I can not even fathom the level of misdirection the so called adults took to make sure the book was not available at the library! Please send me a list every once in awhile so I can read all the "scary offensive" books too! LOL! I truly appreciate when you said "The world is changing and so is the availability of books. I love reading about different cultures and different people and different situations. There’s so many things that I need to know more about ..." Brava to you!!! xxMuggleMom
Comment: Hi there Lilah! Happy New Year to you! Received your swap today and thanks very much for 3 Waves PC's and extra Waves PC. I love these a lot! I haven't seen postcards like these before. Reminds me of when I was kid & teen living in South Gate, CA. We lived right close to the ocean. I was a Army brat & my dad was stationed near South Gate. I miss it so much!
Comment: Thank you for sharing your Christmas trees, I loved to know a bit about you and your family - the reason why it has so many stars!
I hope you had a magical Christmas with the ones you love.
Comment: Loved reading your letter. I love pumpkin pie! I’m also on postcrossing. So much fun! The ornaments sound great. I have a bunch of my grandparents ornaments. It was great they passed them on to me when they passed. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Comment: Thank you very much for the swap! I’m sure my boys will love their gifts! I also can’t have a tree skirt lol. Thunder loves sleeping under the tree & Hannibal loves eating/swatting the ornaments!
Comment: Merry Christmas, Lilah, and thank you so very much for the beautiful Christmas Card. I love the postcards, which are so apropos to either my experiences or postcard aesthetic. I love the size of the postcards as well. As you can see, I'm a bit gregarious with words, and the bigger the postcard, the more words I can squeeze onto the back of it. 🤣🤣💜I absolutely love Christmas lights as you do. In an area near Richfield, UT, there is a house there where the lights sync to a local radio station. I absolutely loved it. I was laughing the whole time. So yes ... Utah has the most beautifully lit houses. I can't wait to go back next Christmas. Thank you so very much for helping to make this Christmas so very special. All the best to you today and always. Warmly, Vita Lynné
Comment: Thanks very much, for the very pretty bird Christmas card, your nice sentiment in card, and and the 3 awesome animal PC's ! Love them! Merry Christmas !

Comment: Thanks for the four postcards. (It's too bad that one is significantly ripped where someone took it out of a book. It was cute, but I can't use it.)
Comment: Thank you so much for sharing the work you are doing for the Lord at your church! God bless you for all you do! Thank you so much! I'm putting these away to open in December! Have a wonderful day!

Diane
Comment: Thank you so much for the touristy cards. I know my Postcrossing partners will enjoy these beautiful cards with plenty enough room for me to write a bunch.
Comment: The celebration for the art installation sounded like a lot of fun! Stained glass is so beautiful. The longest table event at your library is such a great concept. I wish our local library did something like that. What a great way to meet new people!
Comment: Hi Lilah,
Thankyou for the lovely halloween card! The vintage PCs are awesome!
We dont really get the four seasons in Darwin, so I really enjoy the autumn colours when i travel to the other aussie states!

Comment: Today is September 27, 2021. I received today the swap from you postmarked August 11, 2021! What’s going on with the mail? Last weekend I received a return letter I had sent to an elderly relative in 2019!
Anyway, I got the swap. Thanks.

Comment: Thank you for sharing your weekend! The baseball games sound great, especially with fireworks. Thank you for the extras as well - very kind! I'm using the card in a swap soon :) Happy fall season to you! All the best - Alan
Comment: Thanks for the jack-o-lantern card, notecards, and stickers. I also love the bright oranges and reds of the leaves. I've never been apple picking before.
Comment: Thank you for your card and sharing about your weekend! It sounds like it was productive. It is hard to part with "things" that have memories attached. Thank you also for the extras you sent! I love the little bible verse card.
Comment: Hi there Lilah! 😀 Thank you very much, for the so darn cute Black cat Halloween card, along with the great Halloween sticker! Loving them! As Fall weather, like you, I too am excited for it to get here! Love too the changing of leaf color. But also for the cool weather. I'm ready to see summer end. Which it hasn't here yet and we've been having temps. in the mid. 80's with a high humidity. It is 10:27 PM and it's still warm out with 73 degrees. Now that's neat, we here have a local apple picking farm & it's just a mile from us here in Canton, PA. I'm looking forward to apple pies! Esp. my Deep dish apple pie, yum!
Comment: Thank you for the awesome Halloween card and stickers! I especially love the American Greetings ones. I had to look through 3 different Halloween card swaps to figure out which one you were my partner in. It helps you get rated properly if you include the name of the swap with your Swapbot id. Glad I figured it out. I have two others that I still don’t know what swap they’re from. Have a wonderful Halloween season:)
Comment: Love this picture of the Earth from space. One thing you did not put the swap name on the card. I could tell from your note what it was for but it would have been a little easier if the actual name was there.
Comment: Thank you for the little notecard set Lilah! I can understand how you feel about going through sentimental items. Hope you find peace of mind and figure out the important things to keep!
Comment: Sorry for the late rating! I'm going through my unreceived swaps list and swaps with no identifying swap names or note and found that it was received. Thank you for the goodies and sorry about the delay! :D
Comment: Thanks for coming. The garden that you commented on is a bit like the Central Park of the city of Lyon. a green space and many activities in the middle of a big city.
Comment: Thank you for your lovely note sharing your amazing weekend. The Shenandoah National Park sounds beautiful, I would love to visit sometime. I also found the 'Hex Signs' notecard you sent very interesting. We have a 'Barn Quilts' here in Washington, I've always wanted to do the tour, but haven't yet. Thank you for making my day brighter. Thank you!
Comment: Thank you for the message. I am far from a green thumb but do like looking at gardens. That book about gardens you can visit definitely sounds interesting. I hope you get to visit some of them!
Comment: Dear Lily! Thank you for the beautiful notecard and the pretty little extra cards! I'm going to start using them right away! I hope you enjoy your time in your new job <3
Comment: Thanks for your letter, Lilah! I'm so happy we have some things in common and it was great to hear that you're doing your best even with such a busy week of challenges. You got this!!

Comment: Thank you so much for your email :-) Reading your answers, I was thinking this could be me at several points :-) And your superpower is great, I'd like to use that one, too :-)
Comment: Thank you for your Mail! :-) I had a few giggles reading your answers. Woo hoo is really a great word and having a food fight with your deer also sounded funny. :-)
Have a great day and stay safe!
Comment: WOW, you got this postcard out QUICK! I still need to do mine. :) I like what you did with the social distancing postcard. I'm happy that we are able to get out and do some more social things this summer too!
Comment: Wow! I just loved your package! I have read several books about 9/11, including one about Flight 93. I've visited the Twin Tower site, but never the Flight 93 site so it was very moving to see all of your information. Heart heart, teary heart!
Comment: I loved reading about your walk!! we too get downed limbs on our property when it rains..I hope those flowers bring you joy! I have a bamboo plant my husband bought, i love it. Thank you for the extras. great swap.
Comment: Thanks for the audio book letter. Funny thing is we listened to a book about the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad, on the way to Utah for the 150th anniversary celebration in 2019. History nerds are we. Hey, Loved the postcard with the flowery postage stamps. My word of the year is bloom due to the recovery from cancer and chemo.
Comment: Sounds like a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. Can't go wrong with a family gathering and roasted marshmallows! Loved all the little goodies inside too. Thank You for making my day.
Comment: I'm intrigued in the book lines you sent me! I'll have to see if I can get it from the library next time ago. :) Thanks for the cute washi samples as well!

Comment: I had a heck of a time opening your letter without destroying the envelope. But, I did it so I could save it. I love spring flowers. I wish I had a green thumb, but I kill almost everything. Thank you for the great letter and handmade envie.
Comment: Thanks for the cards but just wanna let you know you sent me 2 New York ones so I got 2 states instead of 3. The New York ones were NYC and Cooperstown.
Response: So sorry. I thought Cooperstown was in PA.
Comment: Thank you for sharing your weekend, Lilah. I hope your container garden will attract lots of butterflies :) Thanks for all the goodies included as well. I really like the plant washi tape you used to decorated the back of the envelope - do you remember where you got it from?
Comment: Hi Lilah
Thanks for the notecard. Sorry to hear about the job situation. It's especially hard when it's a job that you REALLY want. I have been looking for work for about 6ish years and finally got something a week ago- not my dream job but convenient for my lifestyle and helps pay the bills. Don't give up :-) All the best!

Comment: Spectacular elephants!
After seeing herds in Africa in three countries it is sad to see these magnificent animals in captivity. The herds are amazing with the little ones.
Yet they are being poached for their tusks. The get great care at the zoo but don t interact like they do in public.
Comment: Thank you so much for the note, that's so true, it's hard to get away from some neighbors!! So funny because I also have them!! Thank you for sharing!
Comment: Thank you so much for the lovely sunflower card and your really nice message. I will be rooting for your neighbor's sunflower to grow! I loved all the neat ephemera you included too!! Nice swap!
Comment: Hey, thank you for the beautiful postcard! I'm sorry that you can't see the milky way, it's very pretty. I live in a small town so you can usually see it on a nice night. Happy Swapping <3
Comment: Thank you for your wonderful letter. It's so cool you got to go to astronomy meetups as a kid. Your writing about the moon station was great - I could picture the tourists trying to get a look out of the few portals.
Comment: How lovely is the page you colored! I enjoy the soft colors and how you used a matching envelope. Thank you also for the nice extras. I hope your garden is well.
Comment: You through me for a minute, since you dated the card April 2020!! I thought, wow is this from last year?? lol - but then I figured it out. I would love to visit Lancaster some day and visit the markets!
Comment: Thanks a lot for the lovely washi tape samples you've sent me. It was like looking at a rainbow 🌈 so many beautiful colors. Thanks for sending some extras. I really appreciate it. I had a friend at uni named Lilah too, such a beautiful and special name.
Comment: Thank you for the Red Lobster Biscuit mix card. I love their biscuits but I don't go very often and since I am limiting carbs I don't buy the mix although I have seen it here.
Comment: I LOVE LOVE THIS CARDBOARD. ITS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! I hope you join more of these bc I would love to receive another cardboard art piece from ya!!!!! And pls rate me when mine makes it too. Take care
Comment: Thank you for the inspiring article. That little boy is so sweet to give out the flowers to each employee. Thank you also for coloring card and paper clips.
Comment: Hello Lilah, thank you very much for your beautiful postcard. It made me very happy! Really enjoyed this view!
Happy gardening... and Happy Easter! Greetings from Germany
Comment: Thank you so much for the letter and the bookmark Lily! I miss the beach so much it was nice to read about your break, it sounds divine. Take care and stay safe.
Comment: I have not seen any of the movies that you mentioned, but my dad worked for NASA after retiring from the USAF, so I also have an appreciation for rockets/space/and the race to get there. Some of my favorite Space movies are Hidden Figures and Apollo 13 (I am never traveling with Tom Hanks) and The Martian.
Comment: Thank you for the nice note about your weekend and the beautiful papers. I already have plans for the papers. :) You had a very busy weekend and I'm glad you were able to salvage so many things from your mom's house. It would have been a shame to lose the stained glass, it must have some great memories. The bulbs will give you and hopefully other people, great joy for many years to come. I hope you got some rest after that busy weekend! Take care!
Comment: Awesome card, thanks so ,much! I'm with you, in fact I just got back from 2 days at the beach in Maine! :) Way cheaper and less crowded! And you can't get me near that place in the summer!
Comment: Thank you for the lovely note pad letter you send me. I also loved the postcard you included. I have been to DC one time and am so anxious to return. I love all the museums. Doris
Comment: A La Plage!! What a great postcard - I love it. Would definitely go there in the off season, but I suspect there isn’t one.😂 Have a wonderful time at the beach!!
Comment: Hello & thank you for joining my swap. Cute card & I thank you for the 2 coloring cards. This is one of my favorite card sending/receiving holidays☘️ It is nice to be able to get outside more.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day
☘️❤️🍀❤️
Comment: What a cool card! I can't wait to make the origami hearts. You just have read my profile, I really enjoy doing origami. I like the motivational card too. Thanks so much!
Comment: Hello, loved the Spring 1897 seed company advertisement - so colorful and cheery. If the small picture of the factory is anywhere near accurate that was one big seed company. Hope all your container plants thrive on your deck!
Comment: Thank you for the letter and the cute cat jumps over the moon card. I found it humbecause there are cows in the pasture 😆 Good luck with planting in containers. I've never done veggies, but I do flower pots. I like to put petunias and I get a heliotrope now. 3rd year buying one since I discovered them. The are pretty and smell soooo good. They are annuals, but I enjoy both of those flowers. I have a few flower beds too. We have to catch a groundhog yet ,so he doesn't ruin them. They like sunflowers because he got mine last year that I got from my sons school. I couldn't figure out at first what ate them until I spotted that little booger in the yard one day. He is a bug guy and smart.
Comment: Thanks so much for your nice card, Lilah. It was great hearing about your weekend. Sounds similar to mine. Snow and movies! Haha! Spring will come soon, I hope. All the best! Cathy/Writercat
Comment: What a great variety and large number of bookmarks! I adore the painted Mexican one, of course, and the sea turtles and polar bears and singing bird one .... And the stamps on the envelope are fabuous. You really went above and beyond! Thank you.
Comment: UPDATE (2-27-21) Hi, I received a story for the swap today. But I have no way of knowing when you mailed it, or if it is a resend or the original, since, unfortunately the postmark does not even show a date. On the principle that you never responded to my messages or the original rating I gave you, I am giving you a 3, because I truly believe it was never mailed until I started prodding you. If you want to discuss the matter further, I am very reasonable and open to an appeal. But I can't feel good about giving you a 5 when you completely ignored my messages. However, thank you for following through in the end!

(Original 1 rating:)
Hi Lilah, I tried to contact you about this swap. I never got your story, and although my message to you shows 'read,' you haven't replied. I contacted the swap coordinator, and she recommended that I rate a 1 until you respond and/or resend the swap. Ordinarily in an international swap, I'd assume it was still in the mail, but we are both located in the US, and I think that a flat piece of mail that was sent on Jan 26th ought to have arrived to me by now. Please get back to me or resend the swap. I will rerate you if I ever receive the story. I'm really understanding, and I hate giving anyone a low rating. You have a perfect 5.00, so I am hoping that there is some reason why you were unable to fulfill. Waiting for your response.
Comment: Thank you for the scrapbook paper. I can never have enough! Thank you so much for for the letter. I loved reading it! Congrats on winning a prize.
Comment: It was so nice reading about you, your life this past year- I would like to write much more in this rating but it's "public" and dont want to share what was in your private email. You were quite courageous/ brave this year and you should be proud of yourself. I feel like we share a similar mindset with a very different life. 1 thing we have in common is wanting to join the toastmasters meetings to ameliorate speeking which is fun ! I wish you really all the best for this coming year and the strength to lead the best life possible ! take care !
Comment: I love the card, so happy and cheerful. Thank you. A difficult weekend at your Mom's house, tho it sounds like some fun surprises happened. Thanks for sharing.
Comment: What great stamps you sent me! Its unusual for someone to send me something new, but I loved the British international (may be a meter)and the nice Australia with an awesome postmark. Thanks! Marc L
Comment: Thank you for the oh so cute card and the note card. I like when new snow also, for the same reason, then it can go away.... lol. Have a magnificent day and happy swapping...
Comment: Thank you for the beautiful note card, paper and sharing. I discovered Swap-bot and Postcrossing last year, too. I feel like I've made friends all over the world and it's brought brightness to me. It is fun to meet everyone. Take care and thanks again!
Comment: Yes, thing seem pretty scary right now, but I have hope in Americans in a whole and its nice to know you have neighbors around the country are banded together. Thank you for the card and I loved the rainbow dessert stickers!
Comment: Thanks for that awesome Christmas card! I have to sneak out to see all the Christmas lights now that my kids are all grown. Is that a gopher?
Thanks also for the Halloween stuff!
Comment: I love the frog envelope! And it is origami! So cool. I am sending the Hello Kitty card to my adult daughter. When she was little she loved Hello Kitty. Thank you,
Comment: Beautiful postcard! Interestingly, the post office cancel is on the bottom of the postcard, not across the stamp ;). I agree, here's a creative 2021! Thanks
Comment: I love the question you chose. We aren't as baseball crazy here in WA state but I lived in Boston for three years and understood fandom in a whole new way. I'm glad Baltimore supports their team.
Comment: Your card just arrived today! The mail is taking forever, wow. I feel you on last-minute gift shopping, and your farmers' market sounds great. I hope you had a good Christmas. Happy new year!
Comment: We’ve been getting snow here and there, too. I wish it’d stay up on the mountains, it looks really pretty up there. Wishing you a Happy New Year. Let’s hope 2021 is a much nicer year for all of us. Take care!!
Comment: Thank you for the beautiful card and sharing your weekend. Thank you for the 2020 postcard too! We've been watching Mandalorian too. I think a lot of people sent Christmas cards that don't usually. I got some from people I haven't received from in years. You're lucky that you're post office has a stamp machine. They were taken out of our post offices a long time ago, probably because of vandalism. I was able to buy stamps at one of the post offices awhile back, but I usually buy them from usps.com. They add on a minimal charge but it sure beats standing in line at the PO and there's more choices than the actual PO usually has. Take care!
Comment: Hi Lilah ! What a cute Snowman and envelope! Thanks so much! The postcard you sent says it all. After the year our country has experienced “It’s Time For Silence” and healing. Have a great 2021 ~ take care, Judy
Comment: I got your card yesterday. Thank you for the card and I agree with staying home. Our church has been closed for 2 sundays. There was a service for Christmas eve but I stayed home and watched the live stream. Merry Christmas
Comment: Thank you for your notecard. I am so sorry to hear about your mothers passing. I hope the holidays are filled with love for you and your loved ones ❤

Comment: Hi Lilah! Many thank you's for the so very pretty glittery snowman Christmas card and postcard. I really love the card & what you wrote in it, May you never be too grown up, to look up to the skies on Christmas Eve! I love that! Merry Christmas to you & yours!
Comment: Great answers!! I loved your answer about the football field .. I was in Marching Band too, and there's no way I could make it across there, either! lol
Comment: I hope your predictions come true --except the continued mask wearing I HATE wearing and seeing them (do wear when I must) but I suspect you are right.
Comment: Hi! I will be opening my cards on Christmas day. Thank you so much for the wonderful happy mail and I'm looking forward to opening your card! ;v; Merry Christmas!

Comment: Thank you for sending, I am trying to wait to open them all until Christmas Eve. My daughters want to open them while we watch Hallmark movies.
Comment: Love the adorable glittery snowman card and the extra Christmas doggie! Hope you do get to build a snowman this winter. I grew up in Oregon and have built many a snowman. Lol Thank you for a great swap! Merry Christmas! Stay safe and happy.
Comment: The glitter on your card made such a lovely, crinkly ASMR sound sealed in its envelope. I love ASMR! The washi was particularly adorable too, and I loved the Thanksgiving Snoopy sticker! Thank you!
Comment: What wonderful note cards you sent. Thank you. My daughter loves corgis so that one I am going to give to her but frame it. Of course the Hex sign one is just perfect since I am from Lancaster county, pa. Love the santa clause one too. A great swap. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving and may your Christmas holidays be bright and merry.
Comment: Hahaha! I love this card! Thank you so much for your list. Hopefully, with the vaccines coming out , things will be better soon! Have a wonderful day!
Hugs.
Diane
Comment: Thank you! I loved the washi tape, you can never have enough! I LOVED the letter. I googled a recipe for chicken, pineapple and sweet potato casserole. I think I might have to try it! We love all of those, just have never tried them together. :). THANKS!
Comment: Greetings and thank you for your sweet card, sticker and scripture card. Say no more about autumn leaves and fun, fun, fun!
Happy Thanksgiving to you🦃🌻❤️
Comment: Thank you for the extra notecard in my card. I really appreciate it. You note made me laugh. I love kids. My son is the same way. He thinks certain chores are fun.
Comment: I love the postcard...want to make a wall hanging from it. You are lucky to be able to use wool. I developed a bad allergy to it. I was loom knitting socking hats and my throat swollen almost shut. I use cotton only for my sewing. Have a healthy and Merry Christmas!
Comment: Thank you for the Smithsonian postcard. It's a very beautiful building. I've only been to DC once and I didn't make it to this one, but I got to a few of them. Hopefully you'll get to make it there at some point soon.
Comment: Hi Lilah ! Love the card and postcards! Thank you very much~! Happy to hear, you had finally found a pumpkin for pumpkin pie, hee! We live in the country, but atop a mountain. But around here in Canton, Pa., you will find pumpkins just about everywhere. I have a garden every year & grew pumpkins. But I quit doing it, as it was way too much work. I had a good run with them though & sold them for $3.00 for small, $4.00 for medium and $5.00 for large. I even had white ones. Those sold fast all the time. Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving!
Comment: I opened the envelope to see which swap your mail was for but I didn't read it/look at it too much because I'm saving it for Christmas! ;v; Thank you for the card, I can't wait to really open it up!
Response: I am still new at this. I now know to put the name on the envelope.
Comment: I'm so sorry to hear of your mom. She lives on through all the people she touched, including you- sharing some of her most important life lessons 💙 thank you for sharing 💜
Comment: Thank you for the recipe and lovely letter! I will be spending Thanksgiving away from most of my family this year, but my husband wants me to make him a pie so I will definitely try out your recipe. <3
Comment: Thank you for the wonderful letter. I love reading them. The list of things you are thankful for reminded me of somethings I need to be more thankful for, so thank you for that.
Comment: speaking of leaves. From my window I watched my neighbor blow all of her leaves into my 4 ft area that goes right up against her lawn as well . I felt sort of passive aggressive today so I mulched all of my leaves in my yard except fot the other side of my driveway which shares the same space as her lawn.... and praying for a easterly big wind. love the postcard thank you.
Comment: Thanks for the lovely card and stickers! I hope your church services have gotten easier and your garden is still flourishing! (I don't really know how gardens work haha) -Al
Comment: Thank you for the quilt notecard with happy message and You Got This card. The quilt reminded me of the many quilts our family has that my mom made for us. Good memories. :) I'm glad you got to have a vacation. Internet has been wonderful especially during the pandemic. Take care and stay safe. :)
Comment: Your family set up sounds very fair, I actually like that. I think I am going to my cousins house, she lives 3 doors down from me. Her kids are super picky so she makes a lot of the food. They think the things I make are too fancy.
Comment: Thank you for card and extras. We've been invited to son Bobs for thanksgiving but staying home. Bobs house will be way crowded to feel ok with it. I'll be preparing dinner for 3 here at home. Happy thanksgiving to you and yours
Comment: Very cute fall cat card. I’m using it in a journal. Those little pumpkin things are interesting. I’m going to have to think about how to use them.
Comment: I am definitely making this recipe - already have all the ingredients but the cream cream cheese! How big a box of confectioner's sugar do you use for the frosting, do you just kind of eyeball it?
Comment: Hello Lilah! Received your card today and the thank you for the black cat Halloween card. You got that right, Black cats do rule! I've had a few black cats in my life. All passed away yrs. ago. I still miss them too. Esp. my one cat Blackie. He was the sweetest ever! i haven't been able to find any other black cats. So settled for the Calico cat we have now, that's 9 yrs. old. She is sometimes worse than a 2 yr. old. But I love her! Oh, And thank you for the Halloween stickers. Love them & the card! Happy Halloween!
Comment: Thank you so much for the cute owl card! I too love black cats, their eyes just seem so strong coming out of that black background. I was going to hang out with two friends from work and just watch movies and stuff but one came down with a cold, so I am going to just hang out at home. =) Happy Halloween!
Comment: Thank you for the pretty card and goodies. Taking a meditation class with your mom sounds nice and calming. You are lucky to have her. Take care and stay safe!
Comment: Your card was so pretty! I work at a University in the History Department, and one of the professor studies the history of the sugar industry in the Caribbean. Slave labor created uber wealth for a small minority and very sad to see persisting today. Be well!
Comment: Lol! Two in one day. I got 2 different two-fers today. Nuts! Thank you for the cute card. Ironically, I really like cat stickers and stuff. My son would die if he could have a cat. He loves them so much. P.S. I early voted.
Comment: Thank you for the cute cherry blossom pc! I am hoping that the next place we move is close to D.C. so we can go to the festival next year! (or the next festival that doesn't get canceled) lol
Comment: Thank you very much for the bear postcard. I've seen bears too & more times than I care to, in our back yard. We live on a mountain. So, Stands to reason, we see them so much.
Comment: Thank you! I find that museum volunteers are very passionate about their 'job' and love sharing their knowledge. It's so much fun to interact with them.
Comment: Thank you for the cool postcards! The train pc is awesome. I really like the inside view of all the levers and the victorian woman on the other train. The smoky Mountains, one park I have not been to yet. The close up of the white flower is beautiful. Have a great day and happy swapping:-)
Comment: I love the Positano postcard, thank you so much! I still have some fall clean-up to do in my yard but it's not too bad. Oh, but I miss summer already!
Comment: This is one of my favorite swaps I love being able to up-cycle something we would throw out for fun. Halloween is going to be kinda of a bummer this year I agree. We are going to look to see if there is a drive through activity we can do. At least it is something. Happy Halloween! Stay Safe out there.
Comment: Thank you for your letter. I've never attended one of those sales but I've thought about it. I have a few Vera Bradley's myself that I love. It sounds like you had a fun and relaxing trip. I enjoyed reading your story.
Comment: Who knew what would unfold the last few days since you sent your postcard and I agree the coast is not clear. I am looking forward to a beach day. Hopefully sooner than later. Stay safe!💌
Comment: I'm sorry your cruise was cancelled, but I hope your family got to make some memories in a different way. I like cruising too. I wonder if that industry will bounce back. At least your commute has improved. I loved reading about your gardening!! I loved the grateful for today card!! I needed that!! Happy Fall!!
Comment: That is so cool that you were able to send me the World Postcard Day official post card! I love it. I downloaded it but didn't get any further with printing it out. How did you go about printing it or having it printed? I'd love to get them printed before 10-1. Any advice would be appreciated!! Thanks so much I love this!
Comment: What a pretty cherry blossom pc! Thank you! What a bummer that the festival was canceled but understandable! I hope you are staying safe and healthy!
