Valentine Mark Herman's Comments

Item in the mail.  Thanks for clarification about the house number - I wondered if you lived in house #1. 

To answer your question about my numbering system....I started MailArt365 on Dec 1, 2010, but was determined to not stress about the daily thing. It actually took me 20 months to complete the first 365...and then I just kept numbering. Now I'm well into my second 365. It may be weird, but it works for me! :P

Yes indeed Val. Thank you! Click on the link in my previous message and you'll see your bird mail art and some others I've received too : > )

Thank you Val! I trust your convalescence after the foot op. is going well though from your new profile pic. I am a little worried... actually looks as if someone might have just stamped on your foot... : > )

Clearly they removed your foot and placed a wooden "thing" there instead, I would complain if I were you. Get well soon and boone weekend to you too.

Wow, that's a nice new profile photo of yours Val! Although I miss looking at your hat collection this one is cool.

Val--

The display for mail art for the Celebrate IUOMA 25 Call for Entries was a success. Your mail art contributed to his popularity with visitors. Thank you again for participating. Read my report about the event on my IUOMA Blog or in entry #42 at http://decordisart.blogspot.com/

Thank you Val!

Back in June, you sent me a welcome email to the group.  I have rented my PO Box and will get an item in the mail. I got a good number, it totals to 13 and that reduces to 4 and there are two fours in the number.   

Valentine,

Thanks so much for the great "Just Mail Art" entry. Really a nice piece.

Belated Happy Birthday, my dear Valentine...

Oct 15...and eye-poppin' day for me, too! :-)

Hey there! Thanks for the card - I am happy to report that I am enjoying both IUOMA and life! Obviously yet to identify the fly in the ointment!

mail will be out soon.

My hamster was Chinese Dwarf called Cherry she died within 5 days the next lot were two Robrovski. Boy were they fast. I never knew dwarf hamsters existed until I saw them in the pet's shop, the biggies Syrian or Golden I knew already. Hamtaro. They were meant to be for someone else always me who ends looking them. Oscar is like my baby I did tame him since he was 3 weeks old. I have heard of these stories of owners keeping cat and hamster together. They get upset when cat eats the hamster.

I actually want a rat because they are cute, a work colleague kept rats he had 7 of them. One will do fine. Please don't eat Oscar because he is also my muse.

It is great to name pets after cool people. Hamster's name tend to begin with 'H' or have 'HAM' I knew one called Hamish. Come on be original. Besides Oscar is top 5 of popular pets' name. Thanks to hamsters I can't stop them from invading my mailart.

Some mail-art from South Africa coming your way...

happy birthday mr president one hundred of this days !

Happy Birthday, Valentine!  Have a great one! - Gail Anderson

And another wonderful card from you today, I love the mix of paint with your found card, great stuff. Nothing but new makings in the coming week!

Oscar say hi. He is a Syrian hamster the last two were Roborovskis and they are incredibly fast. Their names are Roger and Rafa after two great tennis players.

Cats and hamsters don't mix but some are friends.
