Yes, I think we exchanged a few things back i the 80's or 90's maybe? Nice to connect again albeit on the interweb. I dont do much mail art these days. the cost of postage has spiralled out of control here in the Uk and elsewhere too it seems. very sad.
Hi Ficus, I received your mailart. What a nice letter! It's good to get to know you better. Thank you! I sent you something a couple of days ago so you should be receiving it soon.
Hi Ficus, You're right, we are friends, but like you, I don't remember us ever exchanging mailart. We need to correct that. :) The address in my profile is correct and I will be sending something to you this weekend.
Hello Fike, Your mail has arrived. Thank you for the playful enclosures. FYI: my iuoma avatar is made from a mask (2006) decorated with dried flowers and leaves, feathers, snakeskin, and semi-precious stones carvings. It represents Gaia, mourning the destruction of the earth.
Thank you! I will send something your way too! I have just finished my studies and am looking for a job. I've spent the last 7 years working with homeless people and people with addictions and mental illnesses.
That is great news, Fike! Woohoo! Keep up the good work and thanks for letting me know. And no worries, the round of mail I just sent out is my first since about March. Turns out I can't garden and do mail art at the same time, forget about walking and chewing gum. My list of correspondents may have to be curated... But I will eventually respond to all.
In visual news, squirrels carved my jack-o-lantern for me this year. Nature is lit! ;-)

P.S. Picasso is my ideal: to see things like him, but avoid the trap of being such a person.
P S1 I will post on IUOMA.
PS2 To me, Shakespeare tells something completely different in the sense of "Much ado about nothing" 🤔 duplicitous man 😅..
