SMALL PLEASURES
One thing people might not know about me is that I enjoy postal stamps—but perhaps not in the same way as collectors do. I just am particular about which ones I buy, and I very much enjoy choosing which ones to put on which envelope I am mailing.
Modern days have made this both difficult and enjoyable. Because of email, I don’t send near as many letters as I used to, and that’s sad. BUT if I go to the local postal office and they don’t have any interesting stamps to purchase, I can go online and buy them with only $1 shipping fee. Not that their website is the easiest thing to figure out….still, it’s worth it.
There is only one stamp I have ever kept, because I couldn’t bear to part with it: the Star Trek ship Enterprise. It’s laying around in the drawer somewhere, and it’s nice to see it when I come across it.
Here are the ones I’ve been buying lately:
So, if you ever get a letter from me, be sure to look at the stamp. Because I’ve chosen it especially for you!
I think stamps are fun! I used these superhero comic stamps for my son's graduation invitations, and I think it looked cool. He thought it was a little silly. Oh well!
ReplyDeleteI agree....stamps are great. I miss the days of snail mail.
ReplyDeleteHmmm...I think we *do* occasionally get mail from your DH... is he choosy about stamps, too?And I think you'd better find a safe place for the Enterprise.
ReplyDeleteThose stamps are pure art works and some of them make us dream . I agree with you .

Aw, now I wish for a letter! I like stamps, too. They are so pretty. I saved the Disney Cinderella one and have it in a frame on my desk.
