I usually never get more than one letter at a time in the mail, and when it arrives, I devour it as soon as get back into the house, and plop myself down somewhere to comfortable to read it. Then, it goes in my organizer. Sometimes I'll read it a couple of more times before it's actually time to reply to it a couple of months later.

Our postman arrives usually just at the same time the school bus does at the end of the day. So if I get a letter, I set it on the couch to wait for me while I get the kids inside, get the backpacks unloaded, talk about their day, feed everyone dinner and get the kids started on their homework. Then when all is quiet, I curl up on the comfy couch with my letter and savor it in peace. I usually start mentally forming my response while we're out later at whatever that evening's extracurricular activity happens to be, and then by the time I'm ready to reply the next day or the day after, it's easy to just write it all down, but I do usually re-read it again to make sure I haven't forgotten anything. The good news about the postman coming so late in the day is that I can usually get the reply out in the mailbox before he arrives.

But I should probably add, the letter calls to me the entire time it's waiting on the couch. It's hard to wait, when mail is so exciting, but I want to fully enjoy it, so it's worth the wait.

Last lot of letters came as I was heading out, so I took them with me to read in a cafe with a nice cuppa. Used the teaspoon handle as a letter opener!

I read all of my letters when I get them and I am known to store up my letters when I do get time to reply. Right now I have no letters to reply to but three to mail out so I have time to rest before more arrive to me. 😊

If I come home from work to find a letter waiting, I'll try to save it to read on the bus to work the next morning - it's such a nice way to start my day!

I read a letter as soon as it arrives and sometimes a second time. Then I usually read it again when I am writing a reply.
