Greeting Cards

Mr and Mr



Mrs and Mrs




My friend S and I met for a walk this past Saturday morning.  We were both feeling a bit down, I guess it is August and we feel that the carefree summer is winding down.  Well, that is my problem anyway.  We browsed some stores, I was looking for place card holders, thinking it would be a good way to display my small art cards.  The dollar store or a party store may be a good place to find those.   I noticed some pretty greeting cards and S  pointed out the 'Mr and Mr' wedding cards, and the 'Mrs and Mrs' ones.  Have you noticed those?  S told me a girlfriend had recently informed her that her 18 year old daughter wanted to become a man.  Both parents are supporting her in this decision as it had come about from a long time of soul searching.

We stopped in at the bank and asked a few questions about credit cards and new accounts there.  We decided we could get more details online because everything is online these days, even application forms.

S ran into a friend at the grocery store.  I realized we had bought our new door locks from her locksmith business  a year ago when we replaced our windows and doors.  I remembered how smart she was and how much she had helped ease the process of us settling on locks and door handles.  It was a quick and efficient process.

On the way home, we saw some wild raspberry bushes and they looked exactly like the one that is growing in my garden!

  1. I have never seen cards like that here, but perhaps because I never look at shop cards! Door idea though. Valerie

  3. Now you've given me a reason to look at greetings cards lol. I have a box of them but am always on the look out for different ones - not that I think I'll have need of ones like those that you saw.

  4. Wow, that girl who wants to become a man will have to undergo hormone treatments and surgery. I hope all goes well for her.

  5. I love cards and stationery. So much more fun than e-mail. Of course,me-mail is faster and more convenient, but there's just something about a unique, handwritten card to send!

  6. I've never seen cards like these, but I haven't really looked, so maybe they are around here somewhere. Now I'm curious, so I'm going to check next time I'm out and about.
