IM ALIVE:)

Sorry to all it has taken me so long to update! Life has been crazy lately...both our cars died, Ive been working 14 hour days not including school...anyways, thats beside the point.

If you are one of the 12 people who have sent me mail withing the last week, I will hopefully be getting whatever I owe you back out by the end of the week:) I ran out of stamps and still have Christmas cards to mail! Hoping to get tons more stamps tomorrow or Thursday!

Also, a quick shout out to Kate (http://katelistenstodavid.blogspot.com/) She included a nice note for me in her last letter:)

Challenge #1:
Mail me YOUR secret. Just like post secret.
Write your secret.
It can be a short sentence, a long letter.
Mail it to me with no return address or name.
Once I get a good collection of these I will upload them (depending on the content?)

Dont forget to check out older posts for projects you can participate in:)

On A Mini-Missions Trip

A team of seven including myself is currently in Bloomington, MN. We have been working at the Operation Christmas Child warehouse sorting, inspecting, taping closed and cartonizing the shoeboxes filled with gifts and hygenic items for orphans and poverty-struck children. Having a great time, regular PO Project blogs will resume this Friday:)

July 8th-18th

of 2010. A team from church is heading to Latvia again this coming July, and I am hoping to go with. Not sure yet if finances will allow, but, for now, we will be hopeful:)

Update on Thursday (possibly earlier if I find time while in MN) after my trip! Have a good week and participate in my projects posted below:) Thanks!

Went and got the mail yesterday--thank you to everyone who has mailed me already! I will be mailing out your return project today or Monday, depending on how long it takes to get the pictures printed for yall.

Can't wait to hear from more of you...I have already received 12 letters for Project #1 (the sky picture) and one disposable camera to take pictures with:) So, send me mail! Look at previous posts for Project Ideas or feel free to send me something random! Surprises are always good:)

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Me+You, and You+Me...

...so happy!

Project #2.
Send me a picture of you smiling (or however you show off being happy!) and I will in turn send you back a picture of me being happy! Please include one dollar to cover postage and photo printing!

Hope you are all enjoying the weather....we are getting our first serious snow here! Time to make cookies!

Off to the Post Office I go!
Adios!

Project: Pictures!

For as long as I work on PO Project, here is what you can do.

Send me a un-used disposable camera and enough to cover the return postage. All the pictures will be shot and then the camera mailed back to you, undeveloped. It's a great surprise to see what pictures are on it once you get it developed!

Also, let me know how you found my blog! Are you a friend, friend of a friend, did you find the URL written on a scrap of paper, on a dollar bill, or elsewhere? Let me know!

Project #1. For a dollar I will take a picture of the sky, get it printed, sign in, mail it to you, then delete the file. You will be the only one to have this picture--ever.

Just a few reminders:
-Money you send covers the cost of the activity (like printing pictures) and postage. If after postage and the cost of the activity there is money left, I will mail it back to you OR keep it in an envelope with your name on it for future project.
-Make sure you include a return address (that's legible) on your envelope you mail me.
-Each project will last one week. I will post a new project weekly, usually on Monday or Tuesday. This means that your mail to me needs to be postmarked by the end of the week!
-This is for fun! Let's see how many projects we can do, and have fun while doing it:)
-Email is poproject@yahoo.com

Thanks:)
Can't wait to get mail from you!

Tomorrow is Monday:)

Today is Sunday. What did you do today? Take a break and think about it. Look around the room or space you are sitting in. Really think about it. Notice the little things and big things, the things you see all the time and the things you've never seen before.

Tomorrow morning around 8:30 am I will finally be getting a PO Box:) I am rather excited as this means I can get things off the ground and moving! Share my blog with anyone and everyone you would like--I have already gotten over 100 emails...how exciting:)

Hope you all had a good weekend and are ready for a wonderful monday:)

No PO Box Yet...

Went to the post office today, excited. Had all my ID's and everything else for the PO Box application ready. But, no. They don't issue PO Boxes on the weekends. Really?

So, for all you followers and those who have emailed me about mailing me, wait til Monday and I will be able to post my mailing address. In the mean time, my email address is poproject@yahoo.com. I will check that email daily.

For now, I want you to take an ice cube. Put it in your hand. Watch it melt. Then think about what you just did and resume your normal daily activities.

Black Friday....and Saturday!

Black Friday...hmm, what can I say? PHOTO CHALLENGE! Take a picture of all the change you received (pennies, nickles, dimes, quarters) and upload it to the internet (to a site like flickr) with the tag/title of bf27adog. Then, when you search bf27adog in a search engine, you will get pictures of all of peoples change from Black Friday shopping:) I spent about 14 hours with my best friend, Annie, black fridaying. It was great!

Saturday!
I will be getting a PO Box...YAY! So as soon as I get that I will post it for all of you!

Hope you are having a great weekend!

PO Box on the Way

So, I will be getting my PO Box this Saturday. As son as I get the address, I will post it for all of the world to see. I hope that this project will be revolutionary!

Once I get my PO Box, I will post the first week's project. I will check my mail three-four times a week. I will mail things out on Mondays or Saturdays.

Happy Thanksgiving to all yall from the US!
