Friendship Books

Recently I started doing friendship books and label bags and goodie bags.  I have found them to be so much fun! Although I will say it does take some work as well  Such as making my labels and putting them in friendship books that just arrived.  At home right now I have a medium size priority box that came in today full of friendship books.  It is taking everything I have not to go home early from work!! It will be so much fun looking at the friendship books. Seems like fb's has taken over everything else.  I don't want to craft, journal or do swap bot with this new found hobby! Does anyone else get consumed with one hobby and put the rest on the back burner like me?

Although I have been sending out a few postcards thru walltype and am enjoying it alot.  But it has been at least a week since I have even done that.

Yesterday I got my first postcard thru send something!  Can't even tell you how excited I was over that postcard.  It was from Carla and I have read her blog many times. The postcard was from Texas and had blue bonnets on it.  A very pretty postcard and I hadn't seen it before.  So I have sent out 2 postcards for send something this morning. So hopefully it will surprise the girls that are receiving them like it did me. 

Other news is tomorrow Mr. C. goes to the surgeon to set up surgery on his gallbladder.  This past Sunday he was in the ER with lots of pain.  I was 3 hours away at home when he called me.  I jumped up and headed his way.  Am glad his derrick man took him and waited for me to get there.  Which of course at that point they were waiting on his meds.  Mr. C. has NEVER had any surgerys done and of course he is not sure what to expect.  I had this done about 13 years ago so I can only tell him my experience with it.

Guess I need to get busy.

  1. I swear everyone is having their gallbladders taken out except for me....knock on wood. I hope everything turns out to be fine, I'll send some good thoughts your way. :)

    What are friendship books? Aren't they those books where you fill out a page and then send it like halfway around the world with a bunch of stops along the way and get it back full of other people's filled out pages? Because if it is, those sound nifty! I've been meaning to do something like that for my Girl Scout troop with other troops in different states.

  2. Hi Karen!
    I smile at your excitement with the fb's you're receiving as I have the same exact response when I receive as well!
    Hope you're able to get home and find some time to work on them!
    Hope Mr. C's surgery went well...keep me posted!
    Thinking of you both,
    Shannon
