Sometimes I feel just like Eeyore grumbling through the day. Today was one of those days until I got the following in "My Messages":
Hi Mary Ann, I waw going through a bunch of my stuff this weekend and found about 60 postcards mostly from the early 30's. If you would be interested I will ship them to you at no charge as they mean nothing to me and maybe you can make a buck or two from them. My son picked them up a while back with a collection of stamps that he bought and gave them to me and said if I didn't want them to see if I could find a home for them. Hope all is going well with you. Sincerely, Doug
He made my day! I don't care if the postcards are junk - it's the thought that means so much!

Yes he's bought a few things from me over the last year or so. I had a problem with the first item he purchased (his payment was lost in the mail and never arrived). He sent a replacement payment via priority mail and I sent him an extra postcard I thought he would like.
