Mail Out: M. Leigh, UK

Seems that I've developed a pattern of random selections from my desk for mailings . . . once I get through the stacks of TO DOOZE on the desk I should get back into a more timely reply to the mailings that have been filling the mailbox.
Eventually I expect to see the Virgo rising aspect of my chart take over.
