The Letter Exchange Summer 2023 Issue #61

Image
The summer issue of LEX arrived in my mailbox this afternoon! Yay! It always makes my day when the new letter writing possibilities come my way!  I have a few individuals that I have written to since the 1990s that I met through The Letter Exchange, and I treasure them. Of course, not all correspondences last that long, but I enjoy the possibility of new ones.  A large number of people now don't seem to value personal correspondence, and it makes me sad. They truly do not know what they are missing. For myself, I am happy that I found The Letter Exchange, and for the friends that I have gained through them. I would recommend The Letter Exchange to anyone who loves writing letters and postcards!

There  are weekly prize drawings for participants, and there are a variety of free crafts classes and movies being shown, as part of the program. 

A second June Prosperity Jar

Yesterday evening, I made another Prosperity Jar for June! I started with a base of Himalayan pink salt, added some dried red rose petals, a few drops of lavender oil, as well as some sprigs of fresh rosemary and lemon balm. I decided to place it on the nightstand beside my bed so that I could enjoy it's fragrance.

This morning, I created a prosperity jar for June. I started with pink Himalayan salt, added red rose petals that I dried naturally myself, then added some homemade lavender oil, and several sprigs of fresh rosemary and lemon balm from my herb garden. Delightful fragrance! 

Thomasville NC Public Library Summer Reading Program 2023

Image
This afternoon, I went to the Thomasville NC branch of the Davidson County Public Library and signed up for the Adult Summer Reading Program! I found a couple of summer crafts programs included that I am looking forward to attending later this summer. There is no fee to attend, and supplies are included, which is wonderful! I attended a couple last summer and really was glad that I did. Happy Summer Reading everyone!
