Letters from the past....

Ok, it's dark, its grey, I am having a major sunshine withdrawal and can't seem to get anything done from the lack of energy. I go to work just as the sun begins to peek out and have completely lost any ambition for projects by the time work ends. It snowed again Monday and I am tired of white, and cold, and dark. Winter is about 2 1/2 months too long for me! Whew, ok, now I have the whining out of my system (sorry) I'll show you something that goes with my treasure hunting post. Remember how I said I would love to go through old abandoned houses and hunt for goodies? Well, a few years ago my brother bought an abandoned house to fix up and resell. As soon as he got possesion we went down to help him clean it up and found some really fun stuff. A suitcase full of World War 2 letters was one of them! It looks like every letter that went between James and Chloe Robison during the war was saved, tied in ribbon, and stuffed in the suitcase! Even old Valentines, birthday cards and correspondence from friends and relatives. Seems that James was reported missing/captured at one point and it was a long few months for the family before he was found! Every once in a while I pull out some of the letters and read them. I feel like a shameless voyeur, but what else would I do? There are hundreds of letters and once I read them I intend to share them. I'm listing some on my etsy shop later today. Whether you want to read them, or use them for crafts, they will be available for your own shameless voyeuristic perusal. Just the ticket on a grey boring day:>)
