I'd like to join in too. I love getting "real" letters and I enjoy writing them, but all my former writing buds have taken to Facebook for sending messages. Boo! I'm a mom to three kids, I work part-time teaching English, I love textiles, and I like to travel. Baking and cooking comes in spurts. I'm a power walker in the summer, but I've been cooped up during this frigid winter. Cleaning is low on my list, but I'm not a slob! And I love learning new things.
Shannon - will PM you now. Thanks.

Hi all, I'm new here and would love a pen pal! I have fond memories of writing letters to my pen pal in Michigan when I was in 5th grade. I'm 33, I have a fantastic boyfriend and delightful cat, and we are living in a tiny canned ham trailer in Florida right now while I try to pursue my dream of being an artist. What I've been up to besides art: I'm trying to cook something decent in a cardboard and tin foil solar oven I made (so far I've done a great job half-cooking sweet potatoes and brownies!), I enjoy running and being in nature. For art: I do printmaking (linocut, woodcut, letterpress, and etching) and I draw quirky family portraits.
I love learning from all sorts of women, any age, working on any type of projects.
I'll likely send little doodles and artwork along with my letters.

Please add me too :) I didn't know anyone wrote actual letters anymore and it would be so much fun to get one and send one ( or two or three). I am 57 and I live in North Central Maine. I knit and crochet and am an avid bookworm. I used to paint when I had time and I enjoy quite a few different handwork crafts. My kids are grown and I have one grandchild and I would love to hear from any Farm Sister of any age. :)

I have so been wanting a pen pal !!! I just talked this weekend with Mama about how incredibly wonderful I felt receiving a card in the mail from the Easter Swap. It sounded sad to say how special it felt to ME.......but not as sad as sounds ! :-) It's just that family and friends either e-mail, call, or come by for birthdays, etc or just send me a text !!! I MISS actual MAIL in the mailbox !!! please SIGN ME UP :-) FG name is HunnysHen......real spelling is Jami I am a Christain wife, Mama to my miracle 1 child (son), and now a brand new Memaw(a precious Girl) !!!!! (Memaw is Southern for Grandma for some that have already asked ) ha.......... She will be 1yr the end of this month. My Hunny has been w/ the Airline for 25+ years. We own our home....PAID FOR !!!! yaaaaay.......... on a couple acres. We have a decent little garden going now and I have really been thinking about trying our hands at chickens :-) Open to all advice ! I am a die-hard scrapbooker and photographer. I love to travel/vacation w/ my family and in-laws too! I love to hike and be in nature especially in late Fall. On my travel list in next 2 years is Yellowstone and Alaska !!! I love to read 4-5 books at a time and love to decorate and do crafts as well. I have always wanted to try to do a quilt on my own.........this seems a perfect place to learn . Hope to hear from many soon...............I'll be watching my mailbox with total anticipation :-) |

Peggy I have sent several as well. I maaaaay know part of the problem. I was reading her response where she said her email ended @hotmail, but when we click to send her an email, it just shows her name w/0 any ending to email address. does anyone else see it the same or think this could be why she's not getting our emails ! |

Hey Shannon! Could you add me to the list? I am the farm girl who started the old pen-pal thread. I had babies and got too busy to keep up with it...so happy you have started it up again! I am 32 years old. I have 2 sons ages 3 and 5. I am happily married and we are followers of Jesus Christ. We live in a neighborhood for now, but have a five year plan to build on land with a Creek and have chickens and possibly an alpaca or goat. I will respond to all letters :-)

Jamii glad you posted. I haven't had two minutes to think lately and had forgotten about this thread. If you look up higher in the posts you will see that Shannon gave us her email address so we don't have to pm her here. I had completely forgotten to do it.

Hey y'all ! It'd be a great idea for all the pen pals to jump on over to the Farmgirl Birthdays Site and leave your Birthdates.....with or without your year :-) Take Care & God Bless ! Jami (HunnysHen) |

Jami - Peggy's information should be on the last penpal list you received, as was Cecily's. If you did not receive it, please let me know. As of yet, I have not received Kelli's mailing address. I will send her bother e-mail to see if she will send it to me. That is why she is not on the list yet.

Shannon,
Please sign me up for this. I love to do just about every craft out there. I love any and all history, I love to bake and I love to get to know my fargirl sisters better. I am a compete book nut and devour books and I also love to go to thrift stores and yard sales (I call it treasure hunting).
thank you, hugs Marcy
