Mail, In & Out

Whoever thought the post office would lose money due to the internet (e-mailing instead of writing letters) was pretty clueless. Last night I packaged up stuff I need to mail:

Three of the four packages would not have existed if it were not for the internet. (I'll be off to the post office shortly.)

I also *received* mail yesterday too! (Again, this mail wouldn't have existed without the internet.) First, *lovely* Mirasol baby llama yarn from my aunt (as a thank you for the baby tart I knit her after she saw the first one on my blog):

Second, my Pay It Forward package!:

Magnets that spell "Noricum" and stitch markers with the joins soldered. Thanks Daph! (I have yet to decide what to give the people I'm paying forward...)

Also, in non-mail mail (hand delivered), squares knit by a member of my knitting group which I'm mailing off with my own squares:

Wow... she knit way more than I did! She also gave me sock yarn scraps for my blanket. Yay!

It was definitely a fun mail day yesterday!
