List 11 went out on the 10th, postmarked from sunny, warm Oahu, which I've since returned from.  The hotel had one of those mail chutes that goes between floors- I put them in on the bottom floor, just to be safe ;)

So small (big?) error on my part! I wrote my zip code wrong in the return address on every. Single. Envelope and package I mailed yesterday. Oh goodness! I hope everything gets it its destination safely.

I think you'll be ok as long as your recipients zips are correct. :)  It just won't come BACK to you if, for some reason, USPS cannot deliver to the intended recipient.

That's my worry. I also sent out a fountain pen for repair and managed to write the wrong zip code on my information inside the package but I contacted the person doing the repair already.

Side note- I used to live in a huge city and wrote the wrong zip code shortly after moving. The number was WAY off. A while after a package was supposed to arrive I got it. Someone at the post office had taken the time to search for what the zip code actually was and readdressed it. Sometimes items will still arrive though I hear that's rare. I guess it depends on if the employee wants to take the time to figure out what happened.

Alba, I got yours yesterday. Did you put sealing wax on it? There was a circular stain on the back flap that looked distressingly as if a postal sorting machine ripped off something pretty. (It was still pretty, of course!)

Bianca,
I just got yours on Tuesday but haven't opened it yet. I am waiting for the rest of the list to come and then open all of them at once.

List 10 - your cards went out *on the deadline* - phew!

I've had no brain since last Sat (final Christmas fair of the year = knackered), so hadn't posted here. But they should be winging their way world-wards!

Ohhh yes, it was a waxseal! A white one if your envelope was blue or a blue one if it was ivory (can't remember yours exactly!). Damn it, postal services! I am so sorry it did not get to you!  :( glad you liked it anyway  :)

List Four - thank you for your patience. I am beginning to be up on my feet and getting to tasks. I am hoping to work on my out going cards this week. I have enjoyed getting the many beautiful pieces: Linda, Evelyn, Denise, Susanna and Cherie.
Merry Christmas y'all

List 12 -
Did anyone receive my cards yet? I'm so nervous as my for my last exchange NO card arrived at its destination (granted, I sent maple flavoured tea bags in them which may or may not have set off some customs agents lol).

I don't think I have but I will double check to make sure. I have only received 3 of the 7, all of which came from within the US.
