Can you sit tight a few more days? If it still hasn't shown up by mid next week let me know and I'll follow up with the sender.<br /><br />Have a great weekend!<br />Lori<br />:-)Lorihttp://lorilangille.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042175259570154793.post-76945029592429035552009-09-25T19:03:11.435-04:002009-09-25T19:03:11.435-04:00Hi Lori, No post card yet and I think it was that ...Hi Lori, No post card yet and I think it was that lovely one from Make Do and Send!

I find these "timeline" issues very interesting, and maybe an unexpected element of the project. <br /> Can just visualise the woven patterns of the P/C`s paths across the world, moving through many differnt timelines,continents and circumstances...GREAT!DAWNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02223684081274006151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042175259570154793.post-71466929450987764532009-09-22T22:34:31.541-04:002009-09-22T22:34:31.541-04:00Lina, please scroll down a bit and read my post ca...Lina, please scroll down a bit and read my post called "The Well Traveled Postcard" for more info.

If there's no response after a few days, let me know and I'll follow up by email. <br /><br />I encourage everyone to check (and to use) the BPS Café for this reason, since (as Teri notes) it would be lovely to know if the postcards are reaching their destinations.<br /><br />:-)Lorihttp://lorilangille.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042175259570154793.post-31404122552558559752009-09-22T11:35:53.524-04:002009-09-22T11:35:53.524-04:00If someone decides not to post their picture of th...If someone decides not to post their picture of the postcard, how can we find out if they've received the ones we've sent?
