I send photos to them, too, so I have to go to the post office every time to get them weighed...<br />Love that sunset photo, too!Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15609527768798543641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-65132143664949164202012-01-19T15:33:36.415-05:002012-01-19T15:33:36.415-05:00Hi Gill!

But I do have an Aunt that doesn't have a computer and has problems hearing on the phone, so she really enjoys getting cards and letters so I write her a couple of times a month. I have to say, I also enjoy getting cards and letters too, but they are quickly becoming a thing of the past, aren't they?~Kim at Golden Pines~https://www.blogger.com/profile/02001523468339091407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-66519165423780286682012-01-19T11:48:19.190-05:002012-01-19T11:48:19.190-05:00I am trying to write a letter a week.

Seriously, at...I used to be a letter-writing fiend! Seriously, at one time I think I probably had about 60 penfriends. It's got to the point where I hardly even write emails any more and I find that sad. I've told myself for many years that I will do better, but I haven't. Sheer laziness on my part. I agree, though, getting a hand-written letter is really lovely and very personal. I miss it. And I'm going to turn your question into a challenge and actually do it this year!Northern Living Allowancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06663851212929175711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-71561175305843315132012-01-19T09:52:07.929-05:002012-01-19T09:52:07.929-05:00I often have to write notes to send to people with...I often have to write notes to send to people with leaflets and things they request from the Oratory, maybe once every month and a half or so?
