I am on FB every day. I do not do drama...but I love all the good things that are posted. Like new babies, and grandbabies...trips, family stuff, engagements and marriages....and while I do most of my postings of my Avon business I am involved in a few book groups.
I love to read and making friends with other readers. I post my reviews here on this blog along with posting on Goodreads.com and Amazon...so when one of the woman suggested a pen pal group I joined right away. As a teenager I use to write constantly and interact with people all over the US and also out of the US. It was interesting to read what others had to say and share good things happening in our lives.
So now I am pen pals with 5 - afraid I wont be able to catch up and instead of typing on a computer I am writing. I actually got off 4 cards today - started with holiday cards and wrote a long page in it welcoming my new pen pal, giving some facts about me and asking a question or two.
It was a good start and am excited to see their replies.....how about you? Do you still write letters or long paragraphs in a card? I know snail mail is terrible but if you are not in a rush to get a reply - it really is a nice way to communicate. Maybe we should all slow down a bit for the New Year!

I had a pen pal from Australia when I was growing up, and I really enjoyed it! I'm glad you have found some pen pals to write too now. It's a very enjoyable experience.
