Do You Write Cards and Letters? / myLot

March 13, 2026 9:28am CST

This is a picture of the back of a letter that I am getting ready to send out to a writer friend with whom I exchange "snail mail". I always put some colorful stickers on the envelope. We both enjoy picking out special cards and stamps for each other, and sometimes we also enclose little extras, like cartoons, stickers, and such. In this one, I enclosed a mini "zine", which I will probably write about in another post. It's fun to get such little surprises, but that's just icing on the cake -- the real joy is to hear about her life and to get some "real" mail amongst all the bills and advertisements.

I love that envelope. I do still write cards and letters, but unfortunately, not nearly as much as I used to do.

I used to make cards and used to send them to friends but not nowadays when we can get them online and send them through email

I used to. Unfortunately, with the outrageous price and lack-of-delivery skills from the post office, I’ve resorted to the almost always reliable internet.
