Monday Mailings

by Uncustomary | May 12, 2014 | Snail Mail

There’s nothing like a mail social to reignite your love of mail. On Thursday, I joined a bunch of enthusiastic and creative ladies at the National Postal Museum for the monthly mail social. We used the generous supplies provided for us to write letters and make...

As I’ve mentioned, on Sunday, I got to go to the Postal Museum in DC. The Inverted Jenny stamp was re-released, and it turned into a giant party. I’ve never seen so many people in that museum, but it makes sense! Not only could you get first day release...

I got to go to another letter writing social! This one was in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Becky, Bonnie Jeanne, Marguerite, and Anne were there. It was in a bookstore that used to be a movie theater.. the Midtown Scholar. They had set up four tables with a plethora of...

Kicking off the Christmas season with the Grinch 💚 Kicking off the Christmas season with the Grinch 💚Musical at the Hippodrome!

Desmond and I got dressed up as the Grinch and Cindy Lou Who for opening night to see the classic Seuss story. 🎅 @grinchmusical 

It’s super fun, silly, and stays true to the original, with fun plays! 🎁

There’s wonderful cartoonish costumes and props, physicality, and lighting! Plus, audience interaction and it’s only 90 minutes! 🪀

🎭 Check it out while it’s in town at @hippodromebway 

Thanks to April for some props to complete our outfits! 🎄

🍗 Ideas For What To Do On Thanksgiving If You’re A 🍗 Ideas For What To Do On Thanksgiving If You’re Alone/ 🍁 Don’t Like The Holiday

Holidays can be hard. Here are some ideas for what to do: ⤵️

🍗 Change the name. Turn it into a Thanks-For-Myself Day, The Great Cozying, Pants-Free Day

🌽 Give it a mascot. Dancing spoon?

🍽  Zero rules feast. You don’t need to eat “Thanksgiving food”. Eat whatever you want. A charcuterie board made of candy. Breakfast for dinner. Or just your favorite side. Is it stuffing? It’s stuffing.

🥧 Comfort marathon. Watch fun episodes of your favorite childhood show. May I recommend Boy Meets World? Or marathon Thanksgiving themed episodes.

🍂 Do mini acts of kindness and send joy into the world. You can plan them, make gifts. Text people why you’re grateful for them.

🦃 Make an art journal page or zine about what has saved you and helped you this year. Give yourself some perspective and make a list of what you want to feel by this time next year.

🏈 Record a voice note for yourself. From future or past you. Make a pep talk for yourself. 

🍁 Take a wonder walk or drive. Count how many birds you see. Photograph objects shaped like hearts. Talk to squirrels.

🥑 Try one new thing. Shove a mini pumpkin into an avocado.

I love you. 🧡
