31 Days of 5 Minute Free Writes 2016 - 14: "Mail"



GO!  

"You've got mail."  (For any of you who even remember AOL).

"Here's the mail. It never fails.  It makes me want to wag my tail.  When it comes, I want to wail MAIL!" (If you've been around a child under the age of five, surely you've been forced into a few episodes of Blues Clues.)

I rather appreciate the personal letter.  E-mails, texts, and internet messaging are good, but taking the time to organize thoughts on paper, placing it in an envelope, and applying postage has a more intimate feel.  One of my goals for the next year is to send more handwritten letters and cards.

STOP!

    1. Thanks for stopping by. I taught preschool, so I saw many a Blues Clues episode. BTW--I liked Joe better than Steve. ;)
