Can you imagine?

Mail art *worlds* hitting your house when you're stuck in it for months? You people are so wonderful. Someone somewhere sometime said "Gratitude is one of the least articulate of the emotions, especially when it is deep." I know this for a fact, having tried to write this thank you too many times to count, and words failed. So: Thank You. You sent clever, beautiful, funny, minimal, thought-provoking, inspiring mail art for months, beyond hope or imagination. We exchanged before, of course, and continue to now (albeit slowly on my end), but this was something else! You made many of my days, and my gratitude is deep.

Some of the mail received during these months looks like this now after the initial delight of opening and absorbing: 

Blogging all may be impossible, but gradually I'm going to try. Very gradually! Blogs will show the received m.a. between last September and now completely out of chronological order, and the "chosen" ones will be random, as in: stick my hand in a basket or box and grasp something, scan it, post it. Blogjams will probably happen; other blogs might be sort of focused. Whatever it takes, you know?

And it may have to stop at some point, to allow blogging only of what comes in now. Whatever maintains (or even achieves for the first time) sanity. If anyone finds out what does that before I do, clue me in. Thank you again my friends.

Great info, Ruud, thanks. To me it always seems there are more and more blog posts, which might indicate a simple slowing down of my reading comprehension, which we won't discuss. What a rich resource people's IUOMA blogs are.

That's true. The number of blog posts that get put up is astounding, when you think of what it takes to keep up even in regular life as it's humming along with a rhythm. I truly love the blogs, but completely understand when they can't happen, especially given my own past eight months.

Oh? A new surprise? I'm still celebrating my recent unreal, or maybe surreal, May birthday. :--}   Looking forward ...
