A friend (thanks, Christine) suggested I send an email out after the event to let everyone know how the 80-Letter-Project turned out.

First of all, to say that I am Overwhelmed would be to understate the situation. It's more like I am Gobsmacked-Shot-Over-the-Moon Delirious!

Would you believe <strong>133 people</strong> sent over <strong>220 pieces of mail</strong>?? (a few writers got carried away - in a good way!) There were even surprise letters from people I hadn't heard from in years!

I do intend to answer everyone in kind. Fortunately, there were some early birds so I've already begun, but I fear this will take me a while. If you haven't heard from me by Christmas, send a little e-note to jog me into action.

Meanwhile, how does one begin to say <strong>Thank You<em> </em></strong>for making my Birthday Wish come true?? I'm so thankful I have you all in my life! I mean, I am so, SO thankful for your outpouring of love. <strong>WOW!!!!</strong>
