Documenting Mail Art Received

I'm delighted to be receiving so much wonderful Mail Art -- I love my daily trip to the mailbox. I've been trying to document (by blogging) all the Mail Art that comes to me, plus a few of my own creations. This seems to be taking more and more time. I wonder how some of you handle this--do you document every piece of Mail Art you get on this site. If you pick and choose, how do you make your selections. I am thinking of blogging one piece each day, rather than everything. This doesn't seem fair, but, I need the time to make art. Any helpful advice will be appreciated!

I did not yet receive it. I once had mail coming to me from Guatemala. It took over six months to get here! The mail I sent there was rarely received. I live next to British Columbia, Canada. Mail to BC has to go through customs in Toronto. It takes quite a while for postal communication between us. You are about 3000 miles from me. Who knows how many times it is routed and rerouted? I am patient. No. I'm not! I hope it comes Monday! Hugs, Pam
