SO after a long and exhausting day of slinging sweaters at work I was excited to check the mail. One of my few joys this time of year is, as you might have guessed, holiday cards. However as I dug through the mailbox, there weren’t any today. *Gasp* I was a bit bummed, but what can you do? I got back into the car and drove the rest of the way to my house. As I turned into the garage my headlights lit up the front porch. There was a box there! A big box!! From Amazon! This was way better than a card! My mind raced.. What ever could it be? Did I order anything? No.. Did Richard? Not sure.. Could it be a wish list item from one of my internet pals?!?

Anyway, I finally stopped speculating and got out of the car. All that thinking made me park really slowly. Anyway, I got to the box and read the label. Odd, I didn’t recognize the name. Must be looking at the wrong part of the label, but I didn’t recognize that name either. In fact the address was wrong too. It was delivered to the wrong address. I was not surprised, but immediately deflated. I think after my 6 - days a week and only 4 hours of sleep last night made me feel sensitive. I mean. What the hell, post office worker? Getting my hopes all up like that only to have them dashed away! To top it off, now I have the added burden to get this Amazon box delivered to the right place in time for the holidays. Does the post office pick up? I mean I cannot just set it out at the mail boxes, can I? I mean someone could take it. But I am not home enough for them to stop by.

I should just keep it. LOL! I kid. Interfering with mail is like illegal and junk! Besides the last time I did that it was just a bible inside. You see what happens? Bad juju interfering with mail. Except that was like UPS, but still.

But still. I am all teased and tortured now. Ugh.

Aww!  I felt that way today too.  FedEx was supposed to be here and I kept looking out the window every time I heard a truck.  But they got held up with security at the base gate and now I have to wait until Monday.  Boo hiss.

You just reminded me that I haven’t got my cards out yet.  Do I have your address?  Or Betty’s?  Hmmmmmm.

You should totally keep it. I won’t tell.

‘Sides, I know that something I was waiting for was delivered to the wrong address, and the person totally kept it.

Thanks for the card! x
