the snail mail project

Happy New Year Dear Reader!

I know it's been some time since I blogged. I haven't forgotten my wee blog promise. But I have been consumed by Christmas, New year and house hunting.

As most of you know once I get 'on' something, it's really hard for me to do much else.

Well here I am! I have Christmas and New Years off my plate, house hunting is on the main front line..but I can blog and do that...can't I?

Our rental is due in Summer and our landlord is looking to sell soon. I thought it would be better if I get on the hunting sooner rather then later. Plus this house is loads more money then one should spend on a rental! We have looked at many houses and nothing really seems to fit the bill. Too small, to run down, not close enough to rail, not close enough to school and everything in between. We may have found a gem in an Oast House, but time will tell. It's in bad shape, and I'm not sure any amount of love will make it a lovely place to live for the time we have left here. Stay tuned!

I was reading something this morning on how to attracted readers to your blog. I'm not trying to attract anyone really. Just a good read. One of the points made was mail outs. Not emails, who wants more email? but snail mail. You know, the shit before email became the shit?

Not sure what I could mail you about, could be anything really. So I'm wondering; Dear Reader, would YOU like a letter? Just for you? delivered to your door? with my messy hand writing? Call it the snail mail project if you like. A way to get my hand writing again and the mail man working for his dollar.

If you dear reader are interested in the snail mail project please email me at thesnailmailproject@gmail.com

Maybe once I get going on snail mail, I can get others involved too. okay okay, one letter at a time!
