Right now I have the greatest number of unanswered e-mails in my inbox I’ve ever had. Because of ongoing health problems I am not currently working the number of hours needed in order to take care of my business, UruguayLiving.com, and all my other commitments. Consequently I prioritize my time, respond to the most urgent messages and defer, not delete, the others.
However, I seem to be growing stronger and hope to have a flurry of energy sufficient to carry me through long enough to get caught up on all of my correspondence.
To date, MY POLICY HAS BEEN TO ANSWER EVERY E-MAIL SENT TO ME THAT IS NOT ABUSIVE. I will continue to do so for so long as I am able; although I admit sometimes the answers are short, but I hope to the point.
For those questions that are general interest; I have decided to start answering them publicly in my posts. I will, of course, carefully redact any information in the original e-mail that would identify its sender. In this way I can both fulfill my goal of responding to e-mails and also answer questions and others may have. I hope this meets with your approbation.
My other hope, is to train Harry, my Westie, as my amanuensis…
