New Year Resolution postcards are abundant, and “resolutions” are topics that take many forms. It is but the first day of the year so rethinking a resolution may have to wait for a day or so. Good luck, whatever way it goes.

Janice bought postcards and wrote messages to her friends at home, but she never mailed them. Her message was that she would be home on Friday or Saturday. Her postcards made their way to PostcardHistory.net. Sadly, we will never know if she got home.
