Pen Pal Goodie Boxes?

  • Popular Post

So, I was thinking, how fun would it be to have a monthly pen pal? Someone new each month to send a box of goodies or things that you have found helpful. It is something that I have been thinking about for sometime now and would like to get started. There would of course be a spending limit and some general rules but I wanted to get a feel as to if anyone would be interested in participating.

If you are interested reply with an email that I could send you more info to. I would love to get this started!!

Have u spoken to your doctor, are you taking your vitamins, and if your unable to eat maybe the dr can check to see if you have a stricture....this surgery is not to make u feel miserable but to help with weight loss...also besides online do they have support groups in ur area? Would like to talk to u more...I'll send u a email

How do I go about getting a penpal? I would love a goodie box

Email me at tashapettit@gmail.com and ill get you into the pen pal program

@ Tasha how sweet it is that you put this together. I have been blessed to have 2 really cool women as pen pals and happy to say friends now in my life. This pen pal thing we have going is great, especially when people get the concept of pen pal (getting to know the other person) I swear if either of my pen pals reach New York, we will be painting the town red lol :-)

My first pen pal was great and i still speak to her she has become my sis Max

and my 3rd has become my sis as well...Sebrina Thank u so much for my box I loved everything, you rock! What I am grateful for most of all is the emails, our laughs, our lil inside jokes, you are an amazing person...and believe me you and my first pen pal are stuck with me now :)

Thank you for being a friend...

^ um ok weird but as I said that last line, I was singing the theme song from Golden Girls...lol

xoxoxoxoxox thanks Veronica

P.S. its not about what you get in the box, its the friendships that are built!

Veronica,

You are super sweet!!!!! I truly feel as if God reached down from Heaven and kissed me on the cheek!!!! You have made me enjoy being a pen pal but more importantly you gave me a sister for life!!!! I can't tell you how much I enjoy every conversation with you.

I enjoyed finding every item for you (even the not so healthy ones :-) ). I knew that you would understand every item put in the box and you would enjoy the laugh.

I don't know what the future holds with other pen pals but I do know that we will talk for the rest of our lives!!!

This pen pal program was set up so that we could lean on each other and get to know each other. I ask that each of you take the time to talk with your pen pals. Don't just send your address and not respond. It's deeper than that or at least it should be. You are missing out!!!!

Okay enough lecturing!!!!

Enjoy every item that was sent even if you have to do so through the kids:-)........

Your Sister Always,

Sebrina
