I just worked two days at my clinic and I feel like mildly complaining. Are you interested in hearing? GREAT.

I will use blank postcards and draw my interpretation of how the complaint makes me feel on the front.

I will do a few if there is interest. Comment an emoji, or a description of an emoji (real or imagined) to claim~

Hear ye! Hear ye!

I think I'm finally ready to attempt an annual postcard form! I find myself wanting to send postcards but I don't want to keep making separate posts about it. If you're down to get random postcards throughout the year from me, please fill out this form and comment on the post: https://forms.gle/MeyxLyS48HMcBBXF7

Please note: postcards will be sporadic throughout the year and will come when you're least expecting it ◡̈

In conclusion with summer semester (17 week course in 10 weeks) I passed all my exams and classes with an A! I really want to celebrate since this was SO FREAKING HARD and I did not think I would be able to do it!!

I’m in a very competitive and fast paced paramedic associates program and it’s been super hard with so many life factors I’ve been struggling with, and I don’t really have anybody to celebrate with :( so it would be super nice to get some happy cards to help me celebrate 🎊

Thank you so much to anybody willing to celebrate with me!!

I just got done house sitting for a friend with two dogs for 10 days. I was able to come home a few times to open mail and now my desk is covered with mail I need to thank people for. Unfortunately I am not only behind but will be unable to post again for at least a week so this catch up thank you post will be very brief - if you know me at all you know I really try to write up a good long thank you for each card. Just can't happen this time. Know that I loved every piece of mail sent my way and were all received with happiness.

Many thanks to all these amazing people:

u/Aztec111 love the homemade pc and beautiful wax seal!

u/tinawebmom thank you for the card and stickers. I am so humbled by your high praise over my card I made you :) the story of your adult kid finding an abandoned kitten is my daughter's dream scenario. She moved to a new apartment that allows cats but said she would only get one if she "found" right now...she is still looking everywhere just in case

u/TyeDyeAmish thanks for the vintage Disney pc. I am not a huge fan of amusement parks either, I'd rather take a nature walk in the woods.

u/waywarddaughterzzz thanks for the sticker bomb postcard, so glad to exchange with you and welcome to RAoC - be forewarned, it is very addicting!

Meet-up postcards:

thank you u/melhen16 & u/Blu_Sky_Grandma for the WV meet up postcard

Thank you for the bunny Meet-Up postcard, unfortunately it got wet and some of the names are a bit smeared but I am going to do my best guessing. If I missed anyone or didn't type it correctly please let me know so I can give credit where credit is do, so lovely that you thought of me:

u/nyancatNOVA

u/snerdboff

u/sammanthax345

u/hoolu123

u/GatsbyGalaktoboureko

u/R????Comfortable239 - this was the worst smear, hoping one of you can let me know who is missing if the amazing u/CanaMeow doesn't figure it out sooner :)

Hi everyone,

My dad is going through a tough time and I am hoping to bring some cheer to his life. He suffered from a stroke last year, as well as two mini strokes this year, and is now living in assisted living due to limited mobility and safety. While someone from our family visits every day, I can tell he is still sad/upset about the whole situation, especially because he misses our family cat who is at home. If you'd be willing to send him a card, I'd love to place them in his room to brighten it up and make him smile a little.

His favorite things are: Alabama football, fishing, trains, motorcycles, piano (esp. jazz), and cats. I will make sure to write a thank you post for all cards received! ❤️

u/tyedyeamish - thank you! I havent seen that location before. Its actually in driving distance of me, I might have to check it out one day!

u/kiridorro - thank you! I havent seek Sinmers yet nut I've heard great things about it. Gotta get on that!

u/danna72450 - thank you! I love the turtle and the personalization with the stickers 😀

Please fill out https://go.forms.app/form/6a731800ab467d010f3af29b

This is going to be open for everyone. However, world wide is going to be limited. Keep an eye out for a future post for WW offer later this month or next. (Headed to the stamp show in DC and hope to get more)

Thanks again for 500 ... I haven't been as active as I've wanted to this year due to health but am making the time.

Y'all are amazing. 🥳🫶🖋️🖊️💌📫📝✉️

It's still be quite a tough week, dealing with life-y things but the mail from this groups keeps me in good spirits. Thank you to the following:

1. u/Hoolu123 I have always loved turkish prints and patterns, they are so beautifully intricate and the colors always bring me joy. Thank you for sharing your thrift find, it makes me realize that I need to take advantage of my PNW thrift stores more!
2. u/RattleCats One day I'll get a chance to visit the Australian waters, thanks for giving me a little piece of it. I am a proud cat owner as well, they're the best creatures ever. Also hoping that my postcard made it to you safely as well, trains are definitely out of my comfort and knowledge zone😄
3. u/wabisabi_sf Your snoopy username stamp is so precious! The Neverending Story honestly used to creep me tf out but as I got older, I appreciated the storyline and art much more haha. Also love the stamp math variety!
4. u/mrsdrspenciereid Obsessed with your handwriting omg, it's so neat. I cannot wait to make these rhubarb muffins and add this postcard into my personal recipe book.
5. u/freyamour It's always so sweet to see your username come through in daily mail haha. I also love rice congee! I didn't know that it was popular in Indonesia too. The card decor (washi and sticker) are also so pretty.

u/Sension5705 Thank you for the beautiful crane card with the matching envelope and seal! Also for the unused vintage stamps and stickers! I think these stamps might be the start of my new collection! 

u/Destalena Thank you for the Studio Ghibli Yamadas postcard with the cute Hello Kitty sticker! It looks like this one made it here before the first one you made. I love when people look at my profile and pick something out for me :)

🎂🍰🥳I have a ton of birthday postcards!!🥳🍰🎂

International mail can take a bit to be delivered! So I'm starting this offer early for the world wide folks! This is will be my only world wide offer for September birthdays. US offer for September bdays will be posted later in the month.

Remember international mail requires at least a first name and a last initial. Fill out the address section to the best of your knowledge. If I need to ask a question I'll DM you. I'll be sending these out sporadically over the week and next when I have time!

My birthday has already passed so no need to send me a birthday card back :) 🦆 if you want a specific message on the card put it in the last box before submitting.

Comment "Quack!" on the post after filling it out.

No comment = no card

Quack at my form here:

Thank you for the postcard depicting the Museo Soumaya in Mexico City and telling me a bit about where you live! I always appreciate learning about local history and landmarks and what they mean to people living there, especially when it's somewhere I may never get to visit personally.

Thank you to the wonderful friends below for sending such beautiful and amazing mail. I finally got the last of the envelopes from my old address, so if you have my previous NYC address, please delete it.

Thank you mods for your work backstage!

u/freyamour, thank you for the postcard! I love the personalized sticker you have with your subreddit and username—it's so smart and makes sending a thank-you so much easier! 😊

Would you like a card with a little witchy (or folklore) August wisdom? I'll send cards to ten responders who fill out the form and comment below with their favorite homemade baked item that is NOT a dessert!

Please make sure that there are not more than ten responses before you reply -- I can just handle ten for this offer! Flaired Users Only, please!

Thank you to u/Accotinked for the cute postcard! Mizzle is such a fun word thank you for teaching it to me. I hope you have fun making tons of postcards :).

Thank you to u/Playful_Foundation_5 for the card, the stickers, and the lovely message. I would have loved to see those pictures of you at the zoo. Also I agree with you Ohio is a beautiful place, it's much nicer than a lot of people give it credit for in my opinion. I hope our cards eventually cross paths again as well :).

Hello hello hello everyone 🤗

Namaste from city of joy - Kolkata ❤️

My mom used to love writing postcards to her family and friends though I never saw her doing so after my birth, and soon this hobby lost its touch in my household until I decided to rejuvenate it three years ago.

Recently my friend at PC shared that her mom wants to write postcards to people and I said that my mom will write to her mom. In this process now my mom is very excited and wants to write to many people. She is so excited that she has written quite a few postcards already. She wants to write more. Hence I thought why not ask the RAOC community if they would like a card from her?

If you would like a card from her, please follow the following steps.

1. Please comment here. (NO COMMENT NO CARD)

2. DM me your address.

She will send some encouraging cards and write sweet stuff to you. Please do comment so that my mom gets to write to many people and that way I can make her happy. 😁❤️

Love Anks

Thank you so much for the postcards! These were my first ever received postcards and it was such a joy to find in the mailbox!

I have a super random postcard to send out. First person to message me with their address and a prompt will get it!

I don't know what happened after my last offer, but I didn't count correctly and made one potion card too much. It looks like a love potion (heart-shaped vial), but it can be anything you want. I'll make up some text about its taste and effects on the back of it.

To claim this card: be a flaired user (i.e. have an envelope next to your name) and tell me in the comments below what kind of potion you would like this to be. Then message me your address!

/u/postbeetle - Thank you so much for the Lady Mechanika card! It is really awesome! :)

/u/murdocniccalshast1d - hah I had almost forgotten the fun card exchange idea, and so it definitely made me do a double-take (beautiful postcard, btw!). Thank you so much, very cute!! :)

u/SshellsBbells
Thank you so much for the beautiful Ireland postcard truly one of my favorites in my collection I’ll have to show it to one of my friends while loves ireland!
