January 8, 2009 journal pages

I'm teaching tomorrow (Sunday) in San Diego at the Stamp Addict. I feel better but still not up to par. Tristan heads back to school on Monday so I promised him I'd take him to a couple of favorite places today.

OH! The Post Office issued Edgar Allen POE stamps!! Woo hoo! Tristan had to send out thank you cards and we're standing at the PO yesterday. He keeps saying "I want Star Wars stamps" (you know, he is almost 12 and he likes to be funny). The woman tries to sell us Oregon stamps. I tell her that I just want the heart stamps (I love Oregon but the stamps of states are boring to me). She pulls out Poe and says "I also have THIS guy." "THIS guy??" "Uh, yeah, I'll take THAT guy." *sigh*

When I went to the Post Office on Wednesday, I tried to get the Poe stamps and he said the release date wasn't until Feb.!!! I think I'll order them on-line. You pay $1.00 for postage, but at least I get a good selection and what I want!!! Yeah for Poe!!!

As far as what you write in your journal, I'm still struggling with that and what my journal pages look like. Slowly I'm getting it. My visual journal is mine. I don't have to make it a masterpiece and I can say whatever I want in it!!! That being said, I do scan my pages at a low resolution so people can't read it easily, but that's OK. I'm thrilled with your class!!!

Hope you feel better soon!!!

LOL that is so funny . . . "we have THIS guy". Obviously the postal worker didn't have a clue *sigh*. I'll have to pick some up when I'm at the P.O. on Monday! How cool.

I can so empathize with you at the post office! Ours had Albert Bierstadt stamps & when I requested them, the clerk gave me that puzzled look - as in "who the heck is that?". *lol*
Glad you're feeling a bit better!

Glad you're feeling a little better, Kelly. Hey, maybe the guys over at Nova could create a color and call it Kelly Red. What do you think? LOL! Throughout the years I've always heard people compliment you on your great head of hair. Lucky girl. Blessed with a great color and fullness!

Yay POE! Conundrum... if I go buy Poe stamps, am I going to be able to use all of them, combined with the leftover Nutcracker stamps?

Oh who am I kidding... I must have some!

(PS Found you via VoodooCafe who's sending everyone over here this week!)
