The ones I wrote are no longer in my possesion ;) Yes 12 hour work days plus the added work of getting the room prepped for the flooring job on Saturday. I don't drink anymore but my work partner suggested getting some beer for when the job is done. I may partake then... I received more of them than I wrote.

Yes 12 hour work days plus the added work of getting the room prepped for the flooring job on Saturday. I don’t drink anymore but my work partner suggested getting some beer for when the job is done. I may partake then…

Handwritten letters! Very rare these days. The one letter I read was some news and some things like, "Miss you." It was a long-distance relationship (another state!) otherwise I am sure there would be no letters! In this day and age, even "love email" may be rare! I also keep some cards from friends, especially if they wrote a lot inside. It's a fun way to recall what they were doing at the time. I tend to want to throw stuff out but then I open up a few cards, read what is inside and think...oh, so that's why I kept it! A bit of "hidden treasure" to be discovered again and again. <strong>Speedy!! </strong>I recall your Rock Band and I thought you had a mullet and not permed hair? I wonder how you lost your box of "things"? Pectoral implants? I vaguely recall your mentioning them but whatever makes you happy with yourself. I mean, you're perfect just the way you are! Hair-doo?? I don't have any digital versions of me with big permed hair. I'd have to scan one in and I dunno. No problem on your not being able to visit me here - I've been too busy to comment and visit my favorite blogs these days! <strong>UT:</strong> I used to write letters all the time. I write lots of emails instead.Looong emails. Not so long anymore now that I have this blog as a writing outlet! I used to have a lot of fun with writing letters - funky paper, interesting envelopes. But I wrote so much my hand would get tired. Every so often I make the effort to actually handwrite a letter and not try to type it up beforehand so it's more free. It's great to have an organized home. I can't see how other people can live with clutter and disorganization but a lot of people do. <strong>HMTKSteve:</strong> you wrote "love letters"? <em>Hmm.</em> But you also had a journal or binder of short stories so writing "love letters" (why the quotes - were they works of fiction??) sounds like something you'd do. Plus there's the whole gaming/role playing interest. 12 hour work days coming up?? Eeek! delmer: Yes, even though I knew it was a shoebox of love letters I hadn’t opened it in years.

She teased me for a bit over it. I also have a closet to tackle, but for a different reason. I'm laying down the new flooring this weekend and I still need to pull the carpet out of the closet. I've been rushing because I have some 12 hour days at work this week! My wife found my box of “love letters” a while back up in the attic. She teased me for a bit over it.

I know I don't like to right. But a love letter... Haven't seen one of those in years. I don't recall actually writing one myself. Glad you were able to get to the cleaning. It helps a great deal.

I had permed hair and glowing skin in the 80's too .... REALLY! I thought I was part of a rock band. <i>I was but we never played anywhere</i> I used to have a box of "things". Love letters, good memory items, photos and such. I lost it somewhere in my many moves. I wish I still had it. Busy can be good, although I was I was busy golfing instead of working. BLeacthhh!! My closet is full of junk and clothes that do not fit. I seem to have grown in the chest ~(my pectoral implants) he haaa ..... I spose my "budda belly" is just a bit bigger too. You just can't stop eating at a chicken buffet. Thump on my gut :-) We all want to see the hair-doo!!! I put in a blogging request for that. Sorry I have not stopped in for a while. Hope you are having a super weekend!! Speedy Cat Urbandale ^^/-/~ MsQ!!!!!!!! I had permed hair and glowing skin in the 80’s too …. REALLY! I thought I was part of a rock band.
