Are your pens and piles of stationery all ready for another Month of Letters? I have my first two letters ready to go to the neighborhood blue box this morning and a pile of letters that need replies.
Last year, I had a pile of goals set along with Letter Month, but this year, I just want to keep it simple: mail something every day and try to mail it from a neighborhood blue box (instead of being a lazy hermit and mailing from my building’s box.) I’m also going to try to start my day with letter writing to see if I can start a new habit around here. I’ll let you know how it goes.
I’ll be sharing my daily outgoing mail on Instagram for now.
Are you participating? Do you have specific goals in mind?
How is January almost over? Before we move too far into 2016, and before we get into 
Each day I write on my daily calendar page what I sent out and how much the postage cost. On this particular day, I sent out three letters, four international postcards (for a postcard swap I participated in), and one U.S. postcard. 
Throughout the month, I tally up the total number of U.S. letters, international mail (letters and postcards cost the same, so I lumped them into the same category), U.S. postcards, and packages I sent that month.
Then, at the end of the month, I total up the number of pieces sent and the cost for the month and write it on the monthly page of my calendar.
