So I received a letter from my most accounted upon pen pal Aaron. He used to be a coworker but now we just visit via snail mail and occasionally Facebook. In his latest letter he announced that he was going abroad next month for an entire week!!! Lucky Chap.
So I've made up this little 5x7 travel journal for him complete with lined pages for journaling. Sketch paper. Graph paper. Paper clips. Assorted funky cards and envelopes for stashing goodies. I did my standard binder ring binding so he can rearrange as need be as well as add in his photos once he's home!
I sure hope he uses it. I want to see it finished!!!
So... Simply enough this blog is about me. Shocking I know. I have been inspired to start this blog by the movie "Julie and Julia". No, I will not be cooking... I will most likely be writing a lot about my love of mail and all of my postal endeavors. I will also undoubtedly be writing about my husband, darling little girl and dog. Not to mention any other meanderings that may cross my mind. So, here we go.

It is Officially Spring Break!
No drunken beach parties for this girl. It's gonna be all crafting all week! And guess what I'm starting...
Project Life!
I think it's going to be GREAT fun. And a perfect way to easily scrapbook my families adventures. I'll still be of course documenting my own journey in my journal. Which I still LOVE!
And, today I adorned my ears with two new holes a piece. Young and fun.

School Days
Boy has school taken away time from blogging! But that's ok. I know Summer will be here before I'm ready for it.
Yesterday was my 7th Wedding Anniversary. It makes me feel older but proud to have such an accomplishment. I'm lucky. I got to marry my best friend.
Im still keeping up with my journal! It's amazing. Really. I've spent so much money on empty journals I can't even let myself think about it. I'm already half way through with the second signature. And I've also discovered I no longer dislike my penmanship! Mostly I think because it's improved with all the writing I've been doing. And I still haven't re-read any entries or torn anything out! Anywho. Until we meet again.
