Comment: Belated thank you for the fun Life cereal card -- it reminds me of my love of puzzles and Sherlock, late nights in school eating cereal as a snack, and that disastrous episode of Mad Men in which a drunken post-Clio Awards victory Don Draper steals a tagline for Life Cereal ("the cure for the common breakfast") from one of his underlings -- and adorable stickers, washi, rubber stamped images (especially that heart-flanked "Airmail"), colorful inks, and pretty avian postage! Hope you are staying warm; it's been in the mid-50s here, which I love, but my kitties do not :p
Comment: I love your board! Some of them crack me up - "Mom wants a Colt .45 for Christmas," and the baby telling its mom to smoke. Oh my! But that's they way things used to be - nothing was ever "that dangerous!" And I actually used that Rayban image on an ATC a few years ago! Thanks so much for sharing!
Comment: Thank you for the note cards and travel brochures! I especially loved the pamphlet about The True Story of Smokey Bear, I had no idea that was how "Smokey Bear" originated!
Comment: Thank you for the Annie Oakley postcard from Kansas. I love how you rubber stamped my name and address - it takes so much patience! One of these days I'll get down to El Paso and Big Bend. A visit to my family in Dallas is two-thirds of the way there!
Comment: Wow! What great surprises! - Love those pamphlets - and - all the great other stuff you sent . Love the pretty envelope you made and deco'd, too - Really nice. Love your view, too! Sounds amazing! Thanks for a fabulous swap. Merry Christmas to you.
Comment: Many apologies for the delayed response! I usually rate the day I receive, but your card accidentally got misplaced in one of my scrap paper piles and I just came across it- again! You were very timely and I apologize for the late rating. I enjoyed your note very much and I had received it. Happy Thanksgiving!
Comment: How exciting it is to find a cheery red padded envelope in my mailbox! Julie, I will probably wait until Christmas to unwrap it, but I already know it'll make the day merrier. Thank you very much.
Comment: Thank you for the AWESOME pistachio postcard. These are the exact kinds of roadside attractions I mentioned in my profile. I absolutely love it. Thank you so much!!!
Comment: Thank you for the great card. I bought the same book plus 3 others for my swaps. I love seeing how others color the same ones that I have to color.
Comment: Hi Julia! Your road trip sounds fun! I went to Memphis several months ago for a weekend and had a great time! Thanks for the great pc from such a fun place! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Comment: Received a postcard, but I think your note & address side might have gotten disconnected from the Raisin Bran box you mentioned? either that or raisin bran has surprisingly little text on it...
Update 14 Sept 2016: thank you for sending another postcard. Hope you are enjoying your cactus garden!
Comment: Thanks for the creative pc! Your note brings me back to the dsys of seeing the Olympians on the wheeties box as a little girl at my grandmas. Warm memories. Thanks for swapping!
Comment: I love it! "Fear the Ears!" Ha, ha! I miss the minor league team we used to have here. Loved going to those games. They were so relaxed. I LOVE our major league team, too, though, and I guess you can't have both, so... Thanks for joining my swap!
Comment: Hi Julia! Thank you of the great pc about the El Paso Chihuahuas'! How fun for you that the stadium is within walking distance - sounds like you have a great time! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Comment: Thank you for the New Mexico state flag pc. I've been trying to decide on what type of state pc's I want to collect...state flags, flowers, birds, maps, etc. Maybe your pc is the one to get me started on state flags. :)
Comment: Such a pleasure to receive a postcard from a fellow linguist! MuchÃsimas gracias por la postal, me encantarÃa visitar Texas algún dÃa... Aquà estamos acostumbrados al calorazo, estos dÃas la temperatura supera los 108 °F. ¡Un abrazo!
Comment: Thanks a lot for your comment! Yay to linguistics! I find it so interesting how a language developed, I love semantics, syntax, morphology and pluricentric! *Reaizing what a nerd I am while typing this* lol
Comment: El Paso sounds like a great place to live (or visit). They have very original names for bars there. Now Marty Robbin's song, El Paso, is going through my head!
Comment: Thank you so much for the postcard What an excited life you' ve lived! One of my husband's nieces lived for years in Austin Thank you for taking the time to put stickers on it What a cute green monkey!!
Comment: Hi Julia! TY for the great pc of the White Sands National Monument! I have heard of folks sledding down it, my thought was, yikes I have to walk back up though! LOL! What a fun share! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Comment: Thank you for your nice comment. I also like both swap-bot and PC. But I already have 4 postcards in 2 months time that are expired. :( Never happend to me before on Swap-bot. That's why I also like the pinterest swaps alot. Then the swap will never get lost. :)
Comment: Your Christmas tree and fireplace are beautiful! It was nice hearing that you were able to go home for Christmas. Thank you for sharing, Julia!
Comment: Thank you for your kind comments! Besides the very occasional sleet & snow, it's been really nice here so far. *fingers crossed for a nice winter* :D
Comment: Thank you for the awesome balloon Albuquerque postcard! It's my first one from there so I'm super excited!!! <3
We have a balloon festival here ever July! I'd LOVE to send you a postcard I got from that festival! Inbox me your mailing address and I'll send it off to you!
Happy Swapping!

Comment: Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful story with me, its so interesting to hear your experiences! Here's to more signs from beyond! xoxox
Comment: I received your note today, a Good Mail Day at my mail box! I really liked the note card and your decorated envelope, and thanks a bunch for the Sunmetro card and stamps.
Comment: Thank you very much for the interesting facts :) Unfortunately 3 of the slips were missing because the sticky tape hadn't stick properly and the envelope was open..
Response: Oh no! I'm so sorry the tape didn't stay ugh. What numbers were missing?
Comment: Some of my old favorites there, I need to get Thirteen Ghosts as a DVD, it's ben too long since I last saw it! I've seen all of your movies and really like them except I just didn' get the whole hype about It Follows... my friend recommended it to me as the scariest movie ever but I just found it quite dull and uninteresting :D The cinematography is really beautiful though and the soundtrack plays well in to the movie so it's not a total bust for me in that sense ;) Sorry :D Thanks for sharing!
Comment: Wowzers!!! I can't tell you how excited Nir was to open your beautiful package! His eyes lit up like a little boy and he ran to the kitchen right away to start raising his little sea monkey family hahaha. Thank you very much for all the great surprises! :) You really made our day!
Response: YAY I'm so happy to hear that!! I couldn't just let that request for sea monkeys go ignored :)
Comment: Loved my package. I just bought a really cool coloring book called Secret Gardens and was needing some gel pens! Thanks and love the mason jar washi tape💕
Comment: WOW I don't know what impressed me more, the photos or the presentation! 8-) I am not very computer savvy so I would not begin to know how to do a power point. It was very cool and the trip looked amazing! Thanks for sharing it with me. All the best, Caly
Comment: Thank you Julia for the amazingly pretty cathedral in Washington DC. I love that it's so white! It reminds me of the beautiful one I saw last year in Lisieux in Normandy (France). Thanks for picking this one for me :)
Comment: Thank you so much for the great book. H. G. Wells is on my retirement reading list. But... I didn't have a book. What a wonderful choice you made!!
Comment: I love the bright little critter stickers!! SO CUTE. Thank you also for the sweet comments about my projects, thanks for taking the time to check them out. :)
