8/1: day one of a month with a mission

Among my hopes for this month is working my way completely through my "arrears" correspondence list. I got started on that today. If I can manage a note or letter a day, I should be able to do it. I really do want to write to all the people I owe notes to, and I'm embarrassed that I've fallen behind (and in some instances, even beyond what "behind" might reasonably convey). I'm thinking that a bit of structure and a goal in sight will help keep me on track, and that would be a good thing. It felt good just to start--now the trick will be keeping going.

Think of all the good mail your responses will generate. Of course you'll then have to answer those pieces, but relationships and friendships will be up to date and there's a lot to be said for that!

You're so right, Barbara! It's just that I feel soooo bad about how behind I am in some of the emails and letters that I have to overcome my embarrassment just to start....
