Last year, when I was going through my second treatment for breast cancer, I stared receiving notes and cards in the mail. (My daughter Lauren posted a need to cheer me up. Thank you Lars) It was wonderful, kind, distracting in the best way possible and I have saved every note that came to The Cottage.

I love receiving handwritten letters and I love to write notes and letters.

Yesterday, a friend of mine asked me a favor. Her Mother is feeling down and would I write her note? I am sorry that her Mom is struggling and I am beyond glad to write her a note or two. I put my friend’s mothers address in the address book this morning….now what will I write? Shall I send her a fat quarter (she is a quilter) a muffin recipe or a stunning quote from my favorite poet?

That is one thing about BLOG….it is typed not hand written. I pretend that I am writing a letter here every day about one event in the past tense . It is posted here for the world to see with no return address.

When I write real letters, there is always a return address…in fact I have the BEST stickers …..

Oh. And don’t forget the BEST pen.

Love you beyond the moon.
