vintage postcard
This clumsy cookie slipped down the stairs yesterday. I am one scraped and bruised up gal! I'm plastered from head to toe with Batman band - aids. It's quite the fashion statement:) Ouch! Doesn't the caped crusader look tough?
Ruby Tuesday!

Thanks for visiting with me today and leaving a kind word.
Love your blog!
The postcard of the nurse with the worried look, is very appropriate for the occasion! I have Harry Potter band-aid! Thanks for your visit. I hope your bruises will soon disappear!
Cute looking nurse ! Better then the once today, lol !
Yes I live on the Waterloo battle field, if you go to my main blog Writer Cramps I just published a little walk through the city ! Otherwise you find things on my Countries and cities blog.
I hope you are alright and the bruises will vanish soon! What a beautiful postcard though. Batman and Harry Potter band-aids? Wow, I wish we had them... or then again may be not. My kids would find them too cool and scrap their bodies with the whole package ;). They have done that before with more ordinary ones. Have a great day, Marie.
Batman bandaids. They say I'll do anything for a post, but you my girl take the buscuit. Take care. I'll be picking your postcard brains soon about a series of cards I need.
So you're plastered? With bandaids, I mean. Have a glass of champagne...
That is one nice vintage postcard!
Take care, don't fall too often :)
Sehr schön, Marie !
Batman to the rescue for the bruises and all! Aren't they just cool!
Love your blog.
what a cool post! Batman band-aids? (haha)--i sure hope Batman band-aids would take care of your bruises. love the vintage postcard--she looks sweet!:D
thanks for visiting my RT post.
Thanks for your visit to my blog. Your site is so much fun - what cool postcards you have!
She has a very Mona lisa-ish smile. Probably fed up of tending people who fall down stairs!
Poor you but I'm glad you have Batman to heal your bumps!
What a wonderful band-aid, though. I hope you didn't need too many!
It's a beautiful postcard. Thanks for visiting.
Mommy's Little Corner and
Moms... Check Nyo
I collect postcards but I don't have many old ones, so this is a rare find for me.
I hope you are feeling better despite the plasters. Take care.
Holy boo boo's batman I hope you are feeling better soon!
Lovely postcard. Hope you feel well soon!
Happy Tuesday
Was a Nurse in the Army and I have one of those Red Cross Bands. they are red. to bad no color photos back then. I think i will post it next week. happy RT
Are you kidding, Marie ? Hope you do.
That's what succeed in a family with 3 boys, there're only Batman band-aids in the medecine cabinet !
What were you doing ? Suddenly, you craved for chocolate and ran to the kitchen ?
Take care.
Nice postcard.
What an awesome postcard! I hope you feel better soon, it looks like you already have the strongest band-aids around to help out! :)
Thank you for visiting my blog. Batman bandaids! Hmm.
Your postcards are lovely and fun. My great grandfather sent many postcards from France during World War One. They were kept in the "magic" drawer in grandmother`s bureau along with other bits of her past. I loved those postcards.
I`ll be back,
Catherine
Colorful Bandaids always make me giggle. Be careful!
Hope you feel better! Your blog just so rocks! I am so glad I found it.
Hope you're recovering from your scarpes and bruises :) Love the nurse and the superhero band aids!
Outch! Hope you're feeling better today. Would love to see a selfportrait you wearing those batches. Nice reds on both pics. 8D Happy RT!
OUCH! Hope you heal soon!! I bet you look adorable in band aids too...
xo, Penney
I love fun bandaids ... I have come camouflage patterned ones ..
Hi Marie. Yes, we had a blast in France the last two weeks and two days. More below.
I am sorry you hurt yourself, I hope nothing (except your feelings) was broken. Last year I fell and broke my knee cap, in Ireland of all places.
This time I didn't fall. We flew Air France to Barecelona through Paris. Then we drove into the French Midi-Pyrénées. We stayed outside Carcassonne for three nights (Mrs. Jim can tell us the town) in a very old hotel and toured the area.
I probably enjoyed Albi the most. The Toulouse-lautrec Museum was my favorite there.
It was back to Barcelona for a couple of nights with first an overnight stay in Andorra.
Then we flew to Paris and stayed three nights in the Eiffel area and then drove up to Belgium with French stays on the way.
Our Holiday ended with a nice day visit to Giverny and the Monet Gardens.
I will be blogging from time to time about this European Holiday.
..
Happy RT, and thanks for your visit and nice comment. I liked Étretat a lot too. Our stay in Honfleur was really nice.
We like to visit France, this is about my sixth time.
..
Great postcard. I never realized there were Batman bands.
Marie, you wonderful nut. Thanks for the chuckles. I just love retro stuff.
You poor dear. Be careful! I love the batman Band-Aids and the picture of the nurse. My Mother was a nurse...
-Nancy
Hope your bruises vanish soon. Don't think I'd want that nurse tending me, though!
IS THE CAPE CRUSADER HELPING YOUR HURTS I HOPE.
THE RED CROSS REALLY COULD HAVE HELPED YOU ON YOUR FALL, IM SORRY THAT HAPPENED.
I REALLY LOVE THIS POST CARD BECAUSE SOME DAY I WANT TO VOLUNTEER FOR THE RED CROSS ONCE MY BABY GIRL IS GROWN AND ON HER OWN. I LOVE TO HELP PEOPLE!
Poor Marie!! Be careful on those stairs. I hope no houses fall on ya too. [snort, giggle] Get Well Soon pal. :o)
Oh no! Sorry to hear about your fall. Luckily this Red Cross nurse is there to rescue you!
How cool is your blog? Love it!! :o) Will add you to my Google Reader.
Thanks for the visit. See you soon! :o)
Hugs,
Chris xx
Batman band-aids are cool! I had a variety of nifty band-aids in my First Aid kit when I worked at the daycare. There are still one or two left - just for me.
Beautiful postcard!
I really hope you are feeling well now.
But, Marie, I didn't recognize you with your new profile image.....! ;-)
I love this postcard!!! I am an R.N (retired due to an injury)..may I use this to alter a picture of myself?
Hope your "boo-boo's) are better soon..nothing better than a great bandaid to make them feel better!!
Did you know you can get ones that look like bacon,cupcakes and other great images?
Marie: Sorry to hear of the tumble, between Batman and the nurse you should be well inn no time at all.
BTW: I've had fishing postcards but never saved them.
Ooooh, that must have hurt. I'm sending you some healing vibes.
I love this place!!!!
So glad I discovered you!!!! Hope your bumps and bruises feel better fast!
Thanks for coming by my place!!
Hello Marie,
Thanks so much for visiting me and following along ;o)
Sorry to hear about your fall! Hope you mend very soon.
The post about your son's drawing and note was so sweet... isn't being a Mom wonderful♥
Best Wishes,
Dawn
It's been years since I wrote a postcard, but I hope you;re recovering. Take care!
Ouch! Feel better soon.
Sounds painful. I hope your feeling OK now.
Hopefully you heal soon. I prefer care bear band-aids. They just seem so much happier than Batman, but at the same time Batman would protect you from the forces of evil, something I'm not sure the Care Bears could do.
Very sorry about your fall. I love your pictures, your vintage cards. What a wonderful thing to collect.
The nurse postcard is cute. Hope you're not badly injured from your fall. The Batman bandaids fashion statement should make you feel better.
WHat a wonderful postcard. Sorry about your fall and hope your batman bandaids have healing power in them. The mother's day card below is delightfully creative and colorful!
What a darling post. I was just reading about nurses in England around the turn of the century. Thank goodness for Florence Nightengale! She turned nursing on its ear. What a brave, lovely woman.
I was sorry to hear you are covered in batman bandages! I have some little mermaid ones you could have if you needed 'em....
what a great entry!:) i hope you are feeling better now:)
Oh dear, hope you are feeling better. You make me smile reading your post, even when you fall down and go boom! Great card.
debby
Excellent!!! :-)

Nice band aids. Have u seen Doraemon band aids before? :)
Aw. sorry! Hopefully you'll gather strength and healing from the Batman Band-aids. After all... :)
Thanks for stopping by. Nice place you have here.
Hello, Thank you so much for stopping. Cute post, love your blog!
Bless you, Shirl

LOL! You are one crazy cat, er, I mean frog. You should get yourself some Sesame Street Bandaids:)
Love the post card!
Glad you didn't braek anything...or did you?
I so enjoy your blog and from the comments you get I am not alone!
Hugs

Love it! :) I have Thomas and Friends bandaids in my cabinet right now. When I was young bandaids were just bland tan. :)

Well if Batman can heal your ouchies, who can??? I can relate to being clumsy! I'm glad you weren't seriously injured and hope your boo-boo's feel better soon! ~Lori
Ouch! that sounds painful. Hope you are better soon.
That's a cool vintage postcard of the Red Cross nurse.
And the Batman Band-Aids are very cool as well.
Thanks for visiting me for Ruby Tuesday. ;-)
