hi, dear martha, i am glad you got my last mailart, the moon day wishes. and i appreciate all the things you sent to me, thank you!
i have to say, i've been very lazy too, do not update my pages and website for a long time, hard to find enough time to do all the things that i wanna to do, too much competition and pressures in the society. but the mailart bring me happy and friendship, that's why i keep doing it, it let the life more interesting.
i am preparing to do a mailart project for 'room 13', a class that help poor children to learn art and other things, i was asked to be a volunteer there, i'd like they invite me to do that, and i think it is a good thing to help the children ,so i will do a project for them. it will begins on october, hope i can have enough time by then
Hey, thanks for the words. That completely sucks about the po box. The 'show' was something I started with some friends here before I started as a Union member. I'd still like to try it. A tiny art show says a couple of things to me. Post Card Art is a wonderful concept and it also is free and unfettered by the Art Cartel so the idea of a tiny show appeals to me (as opposed to a big, 'important' show). I used to do ATC's but now this seems to fit me better. Occationally I'll send them still if I'm in the mood. I'm doing some catching up tonight so expect something coming your way girl! N
hi, dear martha
you are too kind!
i didn't made a artistic card, coz i do not know what it is, but i am interested in all kinds of things about mailart! i think i'd like to try!
i like to make rubber stamps, really fun, i started to do that just couple months ago, but now i am totally into it!!! i will send you when i make some new:)
best regards!

And it was a bear's joB, mind yu, to grow his tummy and enjoy taking life easy.
Hope you can find a way of taking life easy where you are. As fo rthe server issue, it would seem toomany of us are experiencing variable service quality, so one can't help but think this is not s singular issue for one and only one service provider.
Hundertwasser! You lucky woman, you!!! I adore his work, would love to live in one of the buildings he designed. I love that free form work!
Please tell Giles it is quite acceptable for bears of distinction, such as himself, to keep a bit of a tum and enjoy lounging. It is a bear's jog, after all.
If you wish to view possum art at its best, take a peek at the newest look over at the Studio's blog. We possums enjoy sprucing up, no matter the weather! ;)
hi, dear martha, how are you these days, i sent a letter in this weekends to you, although i made it two weeks ago, but being a little busy after i changed a job, and it's a big pitty that there no mail office in the road to the new company. i hope the letter can arrive safely.
Very tired, grumpy, sore necked. headachy, and ready to take to my bed in a perfect snit.
Hate headaches. Hate. Passionately. Company did leave, but now I can't stand people. This will adjust shortly, not sure when exactly. Look for me to come up for more air at some point next week.
NO MORE company for at least 2 months.
End of story.
Hope your month shapes up better than mine has done thus far.
It is really a choice to be made when things are quieter in our world. The Possum bunch (a wildly imaginative but crazy group currently comprising a gaggle of more women than men along with one cat and one dog) are really too busy to handle any further commitment. The generating of new works to keep a blog rolling forward is really more consumptive of our free time than is suggested.
In other words, no fun when there are already too many irons in the fire.
Thank you for the thoughts on fairness toward Andy. He really has his hands full already and it would be best not to try and take over (however unintentional such a takeover might seem to those of us participating) even a small corner of his turf.
Similarly, I can see where you're coming from as far as your own needs for time.
Maybe it is the better thought to free up the space on our timetables and relax about it for the time being. I'll let you know if this changes. Please keep me apprised as well in return, if you will.
Thanks awfully for the time end mental effort already taken toward a project which may or may not fly in future, but which I suspect could go far if nurtured.
And let's trade art sometime--once you and I are both ready for it.

Not hug, dear, but J-O-B.
It's a bear's JOB to relax and let his tummy grow prominently soft.
Quite frankly, I think that's what some politicians are doing,but that's another story entirely. ;)
many thanks Martha I'm glad you liked it! it was a fun project with lots of great mailart.
I really enjoyed it!
cheers
hi, thanks for your explanation of ATC!
i am moving to a new apartment now, will tell you about my new address soon, and you could better send after i get my address:)
thank you

Well, POOH! Nasty old hay fever!!

Hmmmm the plot thickens......
We? you and the bear? Or you and I?
Several comments down. "It's a bear's jog". You can't miss it.
:P
"a bear's jog" What irony!
g=b, of course.
Gad!
WOW!!! Thanks so much!!!
Very cool.
Sadly, with elderly folks in not very good condition, I feel constrained to remain stateside.
Wish we could meet up somewhere someday!!!
Let's think on it in a few years........
Got a theme?
We could do a twofer or a one to one, take yer pick!
Hundertwasser! You lucky woman, you!!! I adore his work, would love to live in one of the buildings he designed. I love that free form work!

DDendum: Trip's postponed till late next week, so if you're about and up for a bit of interaction here, I'll be online a fair amount at the weekend.

Tell me, do you ATC at all?
Just curious.
I'm up for air, but busy as a fly in a horse barn as I'm headed out shortly for a bit of a wee adventure with friends.
Just 5 days off with no duties to speak of. Sounds like heaven after the spring we've had!
I'll try and stop by at some point on my return.
