Ron wrote me back! He’s the first person to respond via hand written (supper sloppy) letter. He’s also the first person (ever!) to write me a letter on a record sleeve. That’s the thin piece of paper you put the record in before putting it in the album cover. Ron and I both have record players and an assortment of records. I told him he’d have to read his missive aloud to me because I can’t make out everything. He said he knew he’d have to do that very thing.

I got home yesterday (another miserable, rainy day), and there was my letter—and with it came the sun. It caught me totally off guard—as letters always do. Even when you think (hope) someone might reply you never know if or when. . .

Other responses I’ve gotten: Heddy sent an e-mail saying she’s got a letter in the works and Blake sent me a text message saying he loved the letter.

April is National Card and Letter Writing Month, and I’ve vowed to write one letter each day. Also, please check out the essay contest I’m hosting with Giftin24.com.
