Jan from Patty - Newberry (Old Letters)

 

I like to show the envelope both ways when the design wraps around onto the flap. Why don't I remember to wrap around more often?

And a big thank you, Patty, for sending a shot of your other envelopes.

It is really fun to see the other versions. These are really pretty stamps - hopefully they will be available for a while.

Since I signed up for the newsletters from the Newberry Library - I'll probably be posting more links from time to time. This article caught my eye because someone found 50 banker's boxes of old family letters. Yikes. That's a lotta letters. It made me think of the handful of letters that my mom and grandma saved. They're interesting - but very random bits of information. I keep thinking I should print out some random emails from my daughter and leave them for my grandkids to find somewhere down the road.

In case you are wondering how to delve into your own *history* via old emails - just click the button on your email that flips the order of the emails to *Oldest first* and voila - memory lane appears. It's pretty crazy to read old emails. Sometimes it is just an arrow that points down and you click on it to point up.

Here's the article - if anyone is interested - and there are other articles at the bottom.
