I've also got friends all over the world and as the years have gone by I have gotten worse at staying in touch when really, it doesn't take much to write a quick email or letter. And well done for the nail bitting. I bite my lips (odd, I know) and have never been able to stop despite endless tries.The Franglaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00596402165309229771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3223966294194668259.post-36194528700238297752010-11-05T06:32:55.459+00:002010-11-05T06:32:55.459+00:00i could definitely be better about staying in touc...i could definitely be better about staying in touch with people. it's a good resolution to have.size too smallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04753124014707533233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3223966294194668259.post-29145030458179553432010-11-05T05:23:44.915+00:002010-11-05T05:23:44.915+00:00PS fingers being busy knitting and blogging - defi...PS fingers being busy knitting and blogging - definitely worth while causes too!dear olivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03759035094543810261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3223966294194668259.post-14807642893623043222010-11-05T05:23:05.494+00:002010-11-05T05:23:05.494+00:00Yes receiving mail in the post is extra special.

Now of course, email has taken over and they get shuffled around in cyber folders, or ... deleted permanently. Perhaps my resolution should be to print out important emails to save. Sadly, people don't write emails as they would a letter though. Oh dear, what's to become of us?
